If we were to not sign any free agents, then right now Lind and Snider both make the MLB team without a fight. There just simply isn't anyone else. They'll be swapping between LF and DH (and Snider can play RF, even if he isn't a great defender).
Out of the names out there I would love to see us go for, I would want Burrell or Teixeira. Tex we won't get, it just wouldn't happen. Burrell most likely would be impossible to get as well, which is unfortunate because he would instantly become our best hitter. Most people might think "Why Giambi?" but the man still can record a .400 OBP with a lot of power. That is exactly what we need out of a DH.
