I don't think many people here are talking about trading him unless we do bring ALR back. I don't see a big "Tyler Moore for start at 1st in 2013" lobby on this board....
I expect that
Merry Tyler Moore would hit 30+ homers and his defense at 1B would exceed Morse's. I have no problem giving him the job. LaRoche carried this team last spring, and Rizzo and Davey both know that.
I also expect that Morse will be out injured in April, (probably from running to the dugout at the end of an inning, or from walking across the dugout to get his Magic Bat from his humidor.) So if LaRoche goes elsewhere, we'll be playing
Merry Tyler Moore anyway.
Mary Tyler Moore nose we'll see More
Merry Tyler Moore in 2013I do like Morse, but he may be too expensive for a bench player.
