Said A.A. told him they are aiming at acquiring an ace of the staff and a big bat in the middle of the lineup.

Does anyone have an idea of potential bats (outside of Pujols and Fielder) and "ace" quality pitching available this winter?

EDIT - he did just say acquiring, so it could be via trade as well.
I think they're going after Yu Darvish this offseason to potentially be the ace, just a guess but they have the cash and he would fit in with their core.
