If this is what they are thinking, and I don't have any qualms with ZDK's ordering, makes sense, then this would suggest they are going to stick hard to the 2 year offer to ALR, knowing it won't float, and don't plan to do much with Morse past 2013. It also looks like that leaves Moore and Lombo being carreer bench guys. In Lombo's case I see it, Moore not so much.
Of Course, depending on how he ages, Werth may just end up being the most expensive 4th OF in the league while T-Mo plays.
I love Morse, and like him in the everyday lineup. He can also produce off the bench, but he is too valuable a hitter to keep out of a lineup. This is why I believe he will be traded at some point before the end of next year, and likely to an AL team. With his bat, injury history, and serviceable versatility in the field, he fits the role of DHs in an era with more inter-league play. And Rizzo probably feels the yield for him in a trade now will bring the most it ever will.
