McDonald is the 5th sp. Porcello could win the 5th spot.

You want a player with some upside and given no fantasy relevance at all? Kyle Davies, he's not even the 5th starter (4th). He had a great September and word is he's looking good. Anibal is due for a bounceback season. I would also look possibly at Morales and his huge upside. But problem is having #5 starters. Its hard to count on them consistantly for starts.

Blackburn is IMO the safest option on this list (think Brad Radke). he's great especially for home starts. Plus, he's not the 5th starter and will be starting games regularly for your team if need be.

Brett Anderson
Franklin Morales
Rick Porcello

I assume this isn't a keeper with these guys as FAs? Please answer this question (post your complete roster along with other FAs).

Personally I'd want to see your roster before i give you any more advice.

SS-O-Cab
OF-CBeltran
