Main piece on the market is Brandon Phillips. Dat dude still has plenty in the tank hitting 12 HR while posting a .723 OPS and still showing awesome defense.

Mark Reynolds is also available. Solid power bat off the bench that can play all corners.

I have some OF bench depth as well in Mikie Mahtook, Jake Marisnick and Michael Saunders.

Main need is a solid corner OF bat so that I can move Kemp back to DH, but I suppose I can stick it out with him there for a good bat to DH. Other wants that are a little less important would be an upgrade over Avila/Zunino behind the plate and a middle infield utility guy that would be an upgrade over Valera.

With JHey now being a Cub, I'll listen to offers on him. Sounds like he'll now be one of the top CF's in the game. He definitely won't come cheap.

I need excellent corner outfielders.

Picked up Victor Martinez who should allow me to put Kemp in LF

Mainly could use middle infield depth and solid bullpen arms, a luxury would be upgrading my C situation.

1B/3B Adam Duvall got a pretty solid projection; alternatively I could deal Mark Reynolds who can play all corners and should have a revitalization now that he's in Colorado. For OF depth I also have Michael Saunders, Mikie Mahtook and Jake Marisnick who are all available.

EDIT***
Also, the following prospects are available for the best available draft picks:

2B Domingo Leyba
2B Malik Collymore
SS Yeltsin Gudino
3B Manny Olloque
3B Yandy Diaz
SP Daniel Mengden
SP Steven Farinaro
