Looking at what we currently have at the major league level and upper minors, I'm comfortable with Miller, Teheran and Wisler in the rotation. I think we will have to go out and get two starters from outside the system. Maybe there will be a pleasant surprise or two from the guys who have pitched in the majors, AAA and AA this year. But for them to become a reliable major league starting pitcher by 2017 would take a positive surprise (their developing into something better than their current most likely projection). And we have to cross our fingers regarding injury/regression from Miller, Teheran and Wisler.

The good news though is there is a glut of starting pitching on this year's FA market. With some patience we can get one or two bargains.

I'd try to sign someone like Kazmir to replace Wood at the very least.
