I'd be willing to put up one of Martinez or Gomez, plus Church, Heilman, Estrada or Gotay and one of Humber, Pelfrey or Mulvey, but I prefer trading for Bedard. I think he’ll haggle.

Then ship off Tejada for the best group of prospects we can get while eating as much of his salary as necessary and put the farm system in rebuilding mode.

Best case scenario is that we'll pick up a #3 starter and the more likely scenario is that we'll pick up a couple of #5's through free agency and hope that Pedro stays healthy and the others step up. This "get it done by all means" attitude is one that Minaya doesn't share with us and few GMs do. The bottom line is that acquiring an Ace is an extreme long shot which is compounded by the fact that we don't have the very attractive group of pitching prospects. It’s not going to happen.

Deplete the farm now for one good pitcher does not make any sense. Trade the farm away for a Santana or a Bedard that's all and good but when El Duque goes down or OP has a total mental breakdown who from the farm is going to come up and pitch? What about when Pedro retires? No young pitchers to bring up. Trade for another "ace"? Can't becauase you have nothing left in the farm. Lets not be overly eager. I would love to get an ace but I would rather have something just something left in the farm thats worthwhile for the future. Most foolish comment yet.
