Actually getting either one would be phenomenal. I'm more partial to Bedard. If we went after both it would take some serious talent, which I'm not totally against doing really. Not often do you get two teams willing to trade their aces. You have to overspend almost to get proven aces.

Getting a rotation of Harang, Bedard, Kazmir, Arroyo would be unlikely obviously, but I can always dream. I think you have to do almost whatever you can to get that. We would have the best rotation in the majors (we'd have 3 aces). Bruce and Cueto for Bedard? Bailey and EdE for Kazmir?

My only question is how many years would we have either guy under contract once we got them?
