Although JP is due to trade one of our prospects for a borderline 3rd starter once Romero/Richmond eventually struggle....lol
I think the last thing JP is going to do is trade for starting pitching.
Cecil, Mills and Janssen are going to be ready in under a month, and there are 5 capable starters on the team now. Not sure why you assume Romero is going to start struggling. I was at the game today and he was great. Obviously, he's not going to be an all star but I think he's a capable major league starter.
McGowan/Marcum will be ready late this year, or certainly early next year.
That's 10 starters.
As for relievers, you have Accardo and Wolfe in Triple A, both of whom would be on most major league teams.
If anything, you're going to see JP trade AWAY pitching... but certainly not in the near future.
