New York first basemen available

Since it seems to be the time of year to advertise, I'll mention that I've got too many first basemen.

Gregorio Marzano is the star - hit .331 last year, with decent power and good on-base skills. Career OPS of .870. Won the slick fielder award last year.
He's about to start his last year before becoming a free agent, his salary is $6,575,000.

Benito Torre, 22, is coming off an injury and should be ready before the start of the season. The former #10 prospect, he shows very good contact and eye skills, and has medium power. He's at the minimum salary for a couple more years.

Jerome Guerra, although 32 years old, has some things going for him if you want a cheap 1B option. He tore up AAA last year - .310/.429/.510 - and didn't embarrass himself in the bigs after Marzano and Torre both were on the DL. He's also at the minimum salary.

Obviously Marzano > Torre > Guerra in terms of worth to me, but I'll move any of them (or even two). Looking for prospects or picks, or upgrades at 2B/OF/MR.
