    Default Vlad being worked out for the D-Backs.

    Seems he has come off the idea that someone is going to let him start.

    He wants 5 million though. Not likely.

    he was absolutely anti-clutch last year. I can't imagine anyone giving him a roster spot to PH, given his inability to hit anything more than singles. and he could only do that when nothing was at stake.

    Yea he could only be a PH. I doubt a AL team would give him the DH spot.

    Where is Hector? I felt he'd be weighing in heavily on the subject.

    Here I am. At this point, Hall of Famer Vlad the Impaler is an offensive machine just like he's been throughout his career but he's a defensive liability. He belongs in the AL where he can take an up and coming team to the next level as a DH.

    I'd take Vlad right now over.....any of our DH's except Davis

    but only at a very reduced price


    Johnson
    Reynolds and Betemit aren't cutting it
