Gotcha. The only reason I would be for a back end loaded Wong deal was so they could use the money saved as partial coverage for an OF bat. If they could swing it via trade without taking on a new, big salary increase, all the better.
On the DH question, I hope no one gets pigeonholed there. Gorman and Montero would be far less interesting if they cannot handle the hot corner or at least first base. The fact that Baker was not invited to summer camp is not a good sign. I wish the system had more pure hitters, but I cannot think of any….
