Drop Garcia/Marcum for Pavano/Floyd/etc? WHIR

[coma]

It seems as if Garcia and Marcum are heading downhill a bit. I was wondering if you guys would drop either of them for the following players:

Gavin Floyd, Carl Pavano, Trevor Cahill, Edwin Jackson, Brandon Morrow, Jonathan Niese, Clayton Richard, or Jason Hammel.

I'm not sure how Richard is a free agent, I would definitely grab him regardless. Floyd has also been solid, Pavano has had two absolute gems lately as well.

I would rank them: Richard/Floyd/Pavano, drop Garcia and try to trade Marcum (sell high on his early start if you can).

Speaking of pitchers...3 aces or 2 aces and 1 slugger? viewtopic.php?t=415938

Bro, you need a SS more than a back end replacement. With those arms in FA and it being a toss up. Drop one of those extra pitcher for a SS, which anything is better than 0 stats or 0 for an illegal lineup. (FA SS posting please)

I didn't even notice Tulo in there. I agree, focus on a SS first, your staff is pretty good as is.

Which SS would you guys recommend? Scutaro, Yuni, Barmes, Pennington, Aybar, Theriot. Not pretty..

Thanks guys.

Actually, I change what I said. You need some speed. I would see if you could deal for Andrus or Jose Reyes cheaply.

Out of those Aybar (whose hot) or Theriot provide you some speed. Either are a toss up really.
