Even just pick up a junky 3rd or 4th guy like Millwood from Seattle who won`t cost much, just get a 160+ inning guy to take some pressure off the team, Laffey, Cecil and Charlie V have done admirably but it`s just a matter of time before the team implodes with this rotation. Morrow should be back soon so one innings eater gets you halfway there.
If Rasmus is for real the team is ready to get themselves into the playoff mix IMO.

I have no desire for AA to make a move to keep up with fan momentum. Fans in Toronto will come to see a winning baseball team. You don't run an organization like that, you don't try to race to be .500. You build a team that can win championships.
Millwood would easily cost quite a bit in this market right now. He's going to cost more then just a spare part right now.
Morrow is not close to being back.
There are a ton of other teams needing starting pitching and right now, no bodies are moving anywhere.
