Presuming that in one month, you've got a setup man that Wedge likes. You could get that RP back in the Bedard deal, perhaps, Mark Lowe style?
Right now, Wilhelmsen is up to 4 IP, but only has a 10/9/3 k/bb/hr in 14 innings. Not throwing great at the moment.
Obviously the #5 SP right now is the issue. Trade Bedard, then .... OH NOOOooooo! News hits, that Michael Pineda has a stiff arm, and .... there's the 2011 pennant race, flushed down the toilet.

Hey, let's just do Paxton :- ) ... 60 K vs 1 HR in 43 IP.

Right now the Rainiers look like they have three SP's performing well: Blake Beavan, Fabio Castro, and Luke French, in that order.
Have an inkling that the M's actual choice would be Aaron Laffey.
So I count six candidates for an ML start, other than James Paxton ... not that you're going to confuse any of them with Erik Bedard.
