Maybe a package of Richards,Trumbo and another prospect could sound interesting to the Padres, they don't have a true 1B and with this package we could use Bourjous in a trade for Shields.
Plus Zito for Wells is the best form to get rid of Wells and his contract and it gave us a option for a SP.
We get a 3B and 2 SP and save the money (Haren and Santana) for Greinke.
What is Greinke's market value? 18, 19, 20MM?
And I personally think that we can made a move for Hamilton and Hunter. Hamilton gets Hunter's money (18MM) and sign Hunter for 8 or 9 MM. But first we need to swing the Zito for Wells trade. A better line up and rotation with almost the same payroll. Plus Zito come off the book 2014. More money left.
Zito for Wells (20 for 21MM plus Zito have a buy out for 2014 Wells not)
Hamilton (Hunter's money)
Greinke (20MM from the ~29MM from Santana and Haren)
Hunter (9MM left from Santana and Greinke)
Shields (Itzuris, Hawkins, Isringhausen)
Headley the only salary that is new for the team.
