The only thing I'd predict with a good deal of confidence is that they wait as long as possible before making any move in one direction or the other. I could be wrong about that, too, but so be it.
The team is in 14th place but is only a couple of points back of 8th. I think it would certainly be premature, but if they sell now they nix their chances of making it, and (for better or worse) I think they'd take playoffs over no playoffs. So I think Feaster sits tight and watches the team very carefully to try to figure out if their improvement is for real or just a hot streak, and makes his moves right up at the deadline accordingly. If they're not securely in the playoff mix, I don't see them hanging onto UFAs and letting them walk- they have to re-sign them or move them out.
EDIT: I'd like to add that I'm finally of the mind that they need to be going for some kind of rebuild. Maybe full, maybe quick, but I wouldn't keep hitting my head against the wall the way they've been doing.
