I would do everything in my power to trade bradley with his salary for a non-useless piece. Whether that is Burrell or Rowand I am pretty sure his absence alone would be a net positive.
I do what I can to fill the 5th spot in the rotation. With a $135M budget, we'll be unable to sign or trade for a great pitcher without trading away similar salary. Gorz and Spellcheck are not the answer. Jason Marquis is a free agent [img]style_emoticons/<#EMO_DIR#>/smile.gif[/img]. Seriously, we need someone who can eat innings and put up a sub 5 ERA. most likley we'll end up with Sean Marshall as our #5.
