The question is, would it be worth taking a risk on playing him in the American League, where wear and tear on his body could be protected by part time in the DH?

A perennial .300+ hitter, protected by the presence of Colabello, who can still play first base, and give us an additional 4-5M to pay relievers, and allows us to trade EE. Worth a look?

Because that's about it for first base, barring a trade.

It'll be great if we see the 2014 version of Morneau as well. If I was the GM, I'd definitely offer him something. And of course...don't forget about the "Canadian" factor.
