Why though? The offense is good enough that they'd only have to pitch fairly averagely (like below 4.00 ERA) to get a 15 win season (a massively unimportant stat but people still pay attention to it)

Yeah what's that all about? But at the same time, has he ever had as much salary freed up as he's going to this winter? plus do you then go two #2 types like a Kazmir/Simon/Kennedy or go all out ace like Cueto/Price/Greinke

With buehrle and dickey' contracts up at the end of the year (gives us $31m to work with) should we not get a 4/5 starter by the deadline so we don't give up too much and go big in the offseason? I know it doesn't help now but this offense will still be around next year too
