Some of us realize that the offseason is 3-4 months long.

And some of us can read the handwriting on the wall.

I'd be happy with LaRoche or moving Morse with an OF brought in.

Rizzo has time but he needs to step up and make the offseason work.

LaRoche hit .306/.351/.573 with RISP last season. Not bad. (Dunn hit .217/.335/.427)

In addition to names and stats, you might to add salary expectations...cuz you know that's a huge part of the FO's thinking.

I'm just thinking you've got a guy who's just about a lock for .800+ OPS (30+ 2B, 25 HR) and a significant defensive upgrade.

Too bad the Nats don't have any players capable of becoming RISP.

One year contract for LaRoche. I'm just really pissed that Dunn is gone.

Don't we already have a Dunn replacement thread? Or would everyone prefer we stick with this now that the replacement is no longer "hypothetical"?

I'd go 2 years for LaRoche. 1 for any of the others out there (Berkman, Lee, etc.).

merge.

(la-la-la, Spidey I can't see you!)

I want LaRoche, 2 year deal.

Who is Mike Hessman?

Johnny Fever?

PatsNats28 · « **Reply #37 on:** December 02, 2010, 06:07:27 pm »

I bet you it's Mike Morse.

Mark Reynolds por favor

Wow. That's way outside the box. Wonder what it would take to get him?

Interesting. Hasn't played any 1B and is horrendous in the OF. The bat fits in fairly well though.

Lintyfresh85 · « **Reply #43 on:** December 02, 2010, 07:37:42 pm »

Yeah, lets go sign a guy that's worse than Dunn at offense and defense!

That sure will show 'em!

But he's much cheaper. That's not without its benefits!

Oh...that's right, he wasn't worse than Dunn in the OF. Very few people have been. He's an unknown at 1B. Of course, mentioning someone as an intriguing option means "let's go sign him" to the blithering idiots.

If Carlos Baerga can play 1B and hit cleanup for the Nats before, just imagine what carlos Pena can do!
