I believe Justin Morneau is the answer at 1st if we don't resign Davis.

[higgybaby]

His 2015 stats: .310 .363 .458 .821

He only played in 49 games with 168 at bats due to concussion and neck injuries but he when he returned from the DL in early September, In 65 plate appearances, he batted to a line of .351 / .431 / .474 (.905 OPS).

The question is whether or not Colorado will pick up the mutual option to keep him.

This move addresses the OBP need in the lineup with these lifetime stats:

.282 .349 .483 .832

Also we may be able to get him at a lower salary due to his injury issues.

Would he pass the Angelos physical? Would he even want to risk exposing himself to the possibility of not passing?

What are your thoughts on signing him?

[Can_of_corn]

There isn't any risk to the physical if some reasonable precautions are present.

It is not as if the O's FO can't keep a secret these days.

Right. It is not like we have any idea what is wrong with Jonathan Hughes' arm.

I bet that didn't come from the FO.

[weams]

You think that came from the front office?

No. I was serious. None of us have any other info on that. I obviously think the info did eventually come from the Hughes side.

What do you guys think of JM's bat/obp in the lineup?

I think he might be done. I think that we tried this with Vlad and with Derrek Lee.

I don't like the team to sign guys that I think should retire.

I think with his history of concussions Morneau should retire.

I think all concussion guys should be avoided.

[Can_of_corn]

I think all concussion guys should be avoided.

If a guy goes on the concussion DL and is fine when he gets back is one thing.

If a guy misses extended time that is another.

[higgybaby]

His numbers when he came back from the DL. .351 / .431 / .474 (.905 OPS).

(albeit only 65 plate appearances but the numbers are the numbers)

Sure are. I believe he is done.

We need to replace CD's OBP while at the same time add some OBP at some more spots in the lineup.

Do you see any good 1B options for that.

(Assuming we don't resign him)
