    Default Morse for the O's?

    That would be a great get. Roch speculates about him - even though he said he hasn't heard anything.
    Morse is the big bat the O's need, and the Nats are having a hard time finding a place for him in the field.
    The thing I see with him is that he's not a particularly good fielder, and I don't know how that fits into what the O's are trying to do.

    Of course, they could always just pull their heads out and sign LaRoche....but that won't happen.

    With Span in CF, Harper will move to left (Werth will stay in RF) and Morse will be at 1B for the Nats next year, a much easier place to hide his fielding.

    That's if they don't trade him to Tampa for James Shields (to replace Edwin Jackson's spot in the rotation).

    In that case, Tyler Moore wold get the 1B spot, I'm convinced LaRoche will not be back in DC.

    Nats will be loaded again next year.

    Take him, he's yours.

    Serious light tower power. Quite adequate at 1B. An adventure in the OF.

    He could always DH for you guys, nats don't have that option, the guy can hit for power and average though.
