Choo?
So if we got Choo would Werth move to first? Harper to first? Or would Span get dealt? Not really keen on Choo. We already have one Werth.
I'd probably play Choo at first. Werth is not average defensively anymore, but his arm is good, he's more athletic than Choo, and I have a sense RF in Nats Park is a very tough field that makes players look bad.
Tigers signed Rajai Davis and the D-backs traded for Choo. We got to jump on him.
Choo is not a CF'er.
Adam Kilgore @AdamKilgoreWP 42sRyan Zimmerman will see spot duty at first base in 2014. "If I can help our team by playing over there, I’ll do it.” http://wapo.st/18SVs6h
That probably means playing time for Espinosa.
But Harper is
@AdamKilgoreWP: Ryan Zimmerman is still the Nats' regular third baseman, but he said he could spell Adam LaRoche 10 to 15 games.
He'll play first exactly as many times as Williams puts him at first. Remember how Soriano got killed by the fans for not wanting to play outfield? Well now Zimmm is pulling the same bullcrap. This isn't some All Star or gold glover, this is a guy who has never won a playoff series and he's going to dictate to management where he'll play? This is why Davey had to go, I can't wait for Williams to set these entitled jerk offs straight.
“If that’s best for the team, I’m willing to play over there,” Zimmerman said in a phone conversation. “I don’t want to play 60 games over there. The way I played at the end of last season and the way my arm felt, I think third base is my best position and it gives our team the best chance to win. I feel like I’m the best third baseman that we have.“I think it’s more something like, ‘Have you ever played over there? Would you be willing to play there just in case?’ You know me. If I can help our team by playing over there, I’ll do it.”
