Clayton Kershaw is unbeaten in his last seven starts, going 5-0 with a 0.63 ERA (3 ER/42.2 IP). The Dodgers are 7-0 in his last seven starts.
Would you trade him for Roy Halladay?

To me that's a no brainer. I'd keep Kershaw. I'd trade Billingsley before I traded Kershaw.

if it's just for the rest of this year, no-brainer, of course I'd trade Kershaw for Halladay

Kersh is young and has looked brilliant at times...when he is locating he is almost unhittable. Definitely worth hanging on to...don't think I'd make the trade from the Dodgers standpoint having a young ace like Kershaw that has great stuff and can dominate.

No way, Kershaw may have some Cy Youngs in his future.
Now don't get me wrong, Halladay is still one of the best pitchers in the game and I could certainly understand a team wanting to win this year making a big move for him. But you just can't sacrifice the future in doing so.

The Dodgers know in the post season season they are vulnerable so Halladay is a true #1 which they don't have. To win it all you need at least 1 guy (like Hamels last year) to dominant typically. To win now (maybe) yes, but I wouldn't do it.

Probably not.
Dodgers probably don't have enough to get Halladay unless they deal Kershaw.
