You wrap up $150-200 mil in one of those three high profile pitchers you mentioned earlier then you will have to sacrifice securing premium bats through free agency. You will have to go the trade route almost exclusively to hopefully get someone and limit what you will get at catcher as well. But getting a stop gap at 2nd (if Olivera sticks at 3rd at about the same price Uribe would have cost per year) a good catcher and big outfield bat can be doable with the combination of free agency and trades.
If Olivera sucks at 3b, we're done. We've went all in on him. If he doesn't pan out, we'll be picking top 10 again next season.
