Maybe... The Nats Should Consider A Trade After All
When a player like Justin Upton becomes available, you need to at least call.
With Jayson Werth returning in a couple of weeks, either Mike Morse or Adam LaRoche would be available. Morse is three years younger, only 30, so lets offer him as part of a package.
Upton would play right field, Bryce Harper left with Werth eventually in center field. As Werth slows a year or two from now, he and Harper could swap positions.
Who else?
Roger Bernadina (27)
John Lannan (27)
Craig Stammen (27)
Mike Morse (30)
We would probably need to include a young prospect, or two.
Anthony Rendon (22)
Alex Meyer (22)
Upton has struggled this season after finshing fourth in the NL MVP voting in 2011.
Would a combination of these players be enough to entice Arizona to part with the 24 year old Upton?
We can dream, right?
