Anybody think Epstein will choose to save MILLIONS of dollars and put LaHair at 1B instead of bringing back the wet noodle Pena? Assuming of course that Fielder/Pujols are also not options because of the price and length of contract. I for one would not want to sit through anohter season watching the great club house presence Pena tread water with a terrible RISP average while adding to his personal home run totals.
