I would look through the FA pool maybe look for someone who has been hurt and is coming back and try and upgrade in the OF and at 2B until Giles get back.

drop your extra bench hitters that you dont need like nick green and casey blake. pick up starting pitchers. u could go with a hot arm (jaret wright, rusch), or just pick up whoever is starting against the expos or something like that. ur roster spots are going to waste on hitters that ur not gonna start, pick up starters.

Your OF is weak. 2B is a little weak but Giles might be back mid July.

Pitching wise I would consider Loaiza and Hernandez are 2 and 3s in my opinion. You are lacking a true no 1. I dont really see a whole of trade bait you have to work with unfortunately. Maybe you can find someone to take Durazo or Figgins, but neither will get you what you need.
