I'd be surprised if any big moves are made. Seems like a stay-the-course offseason to me.

I have been saying this since early August.

Re-sign ALR

Let Jackson walk and find a # 5. Is Lannan or Duke the one?

Replace Gonzales ( non tender candidate) , Burnett (may opt for FA) Gorzelanny ( too expensive but keep him if he wants to stay) for lefty RP with Duke and possibly one other.

Add Garcia , Cole Kimball and HRod ( not my choice but the FO has invested too much in him to let him walk) for Righties.

I find the speculation about trading Morse for a top prospect as a losing proposition for us. How can you give up 30 HR's , 100 RBI's and close to .300 BA? Look how everyone pissed and moaned about Willingham.I recognize his defensive limitations. He is signed through 2013 and we can see if Goodwin , Moore , Brown or Hood are ready for 2014.

The "goon squad "is Tracy , Lombo . Bernie and Moore ( I am not sure what detrimental affect 200 PA's will have on him) if we don't have an injury to one of our OFs' or ALR
