Although we have high hopes for the post-season, don't want to miss out on any action in gearing up for 2009.

After a quick look at the team, I look great in the lineup, and a complete wasteland past the top core of pitchers. Plus, I need money worse than Wall Street.

So - things that might be interesting for folks:

Useful to a contender:
I have four guys for three spots - A-Rod, Chipper, Teixeira and Votto - they'll slot in the corners and DH and are too good to ride the bench. One (and only one) of that set is available for the right price. Definitely not a fire sale, looking value for value.

Useful to a rebuilder:
Dontrelle Willis, and Juan Rivera moderately young who, well, kind of sucked but has a track record.

All minors & picks - Trevor Cahill! Others! available.

Looking for frontline bullpen help. I think I can fill my top three starters, and filler can be picked up on the scrap heap. Also, cash cash cash. Did I mention cash?
