3.5 months to go.
Not worried about tiebreakers.

Worried about the nine-figure-salary players hitting.
Worried about the lack of a fifth starter exhausting the bullpen.

I think for the deadline they should target:

-- Quality #5 starter
-- RH platoon bat for 1B, whether it's Clemens or Harper
-- veteran reliever, though it doesn't necessarily have to be a guy capable of pitching 8th/9th

Last year the tiebreaker vs Milwaukee was big - never too early to think about it, especially with some already locked in
