does anyone have a list of 2013 pending Starting Pitcher Free Agents?

since AA will likely atleast try to land 2 starters this offseason.

Here's my top 10, roughly ranked. There are a few high end pitchers and a bunch of #3 types available.

Zack Grienke- The best free agent available. He'll go to the highest bidder
Ryan Dempster- Still a #1 option but getting up in age
Jake Peavy - $22 million option. I expect he'll get picked up one way or another. #1 pitcher
Kyle Lohse- Low SO control pitcher who's become a #2 option
Shaun Marcum- We all know who Marcum is. He's currently hurt with elbow issues
Carlos Zambrano- He's only a #2/#3 option these days. Coming off a disappointing season
Edwin Jackson- Your prototype #3 starter
Colby Lewis- A solid #3 starter
Gavin Floyd - Consistent & durable #3 starter. He has a 9.5 million option that may or may not be picked up
Brandon McCarthy- Not super durable but still a solid starter

We're all aware it's August, right?

lol, I dont think I saw anyone younger than the few who were 29 years of age... and MANY are 34+ in age

i think AA will trade for starters considering the age of the FA market
