You don't trade someone just because it would be nice for him to play everyday.
I won't "love to see him somewhere" else if one of our outfielders goes down with an injury. We have ZERO reserve outfielders right now with more than a few major league AB experience.
Don't worry. There will be plenty of games in August and September where not only Pierre, but Ausmus, Castro, and Loretta, as well as a whole host of call ups will have plenty of chances to play. (That's also the argument against wearing out the bullpen. You notice even now everyone gets into the games. Yes, Belisario, Troncoso, and Broxton are preferred, but not used exclusively.)
And when we get into the World Series, half of the games will be played in an AL city where we will need a DH.
