Street is supposedly a question mark to pass the physical. Sherill from the O's is a cheaper alternative but you have to trade for him. I bet Fuentes gets it or close to it.
I know you are going to go crazy but maybe they should trade Reyes. What if they traded Reyes to the dodgers and made them take castillo's contract and some filler for Kemp/Ethier, Billingsley and prospect. Then sign Furcal or Orlando Caberera and Orlando Hudson and Teixiera. That gives them a great infield, takes care of left field until martinez is ready and gets you a pitcher too. I guess the Dodgers may not do it but they signed Juan Pierre to a long term contract so who knows?
