Glamorgan are considering a move for a second overseas player as they have lost Mike Kasprowicz for the summer.
The Australian has been named in both his country's one-day and Test squad for the Ashes tour.
With Matthew Maynard, Alex Wharf and Simon Jones expected on England duty, Glamorgan's resources are stretched.
"We're not in the market for a second overseas player yet, but we are looking around the world and have that option," said Glamorgan captain Robert Croft.
"Mike had a fantastic winter with Australia and we've been expecting to lose him for a while.
"We're very proud of him, he's a fantastic cricketer, but for Glamorgan as a team it's a disappointment.
"We have strength in depth with our seam bowlers. We could lose a few to England, but that won't be until over a month into the season."
Glamorgan's other overseas player is Australian opening batsman Matthew Elliott, and a second recruit would be expected to be a bowler.
Another Australian, fast-medium bowler Michael Lewis, joined the Welsh county for a short period last summer when Kasprowicz was on international duty.
