If they are looking on the market for a pitcher, there are several potential number five starters. Horacio Ramirez, Jeff Weaver, David Wells, to name a few. However, they have not been the most effective pitchers and they are probably better off sacrificing a low level prospect for someone like Dave Bush, who was recently pushed into the bullpen. Bush would make for a solid number five starter and would not cost much for them to bring him in. Other options include Robinson Tejada, Vicente Padilla, Matt Belisle, or maybe Matt Morris, but it looks like he might be traded to New York or Detroit by the trade deadline.
