...to see the M's pull out the stops - trade for Votto in a Cameron-esque deal (giving up Pineda), AND acquire Reyes as your speedy-MI/leadoff-man-of-the future.  It's easy enough to fill in holes at that point with Moyer, a Buehrle/Garland/Bedard-type (or two: Bedard-plus-one as a cheap flier), and so forth.
Votto is cheap enough in the short term to make such a dual-whammy possible without increasing payroll astronomically.
