I'd see if the Dodgers would part with Dustin May given that he only has 2 years of service time left and has a history of arm troubles. The talent is immense - risk it.
Ryan Pepiot is hurt but has a ton of service time left and is a middle of the rotation talent (top of the rotation stuff; might have relief command). I believe the issue is an oblique so nothing long-term. You're not getting Stone or Sheehan but leveraging their desperate need right now could get you a really nice piece if you're willing to risk the health or command concerns that those guys bring.
One things for sure - Jack Flaherty should never make another start as a Cardinal. Deal him now. That's as good as he's looked in years - Mozeliak should've been on the phone with LAD, Philly and Baltimore before that outing was even over.
