Though it would never happen, I've been thinking Barrett would be a good option as our backup C. We already have the defense at the position in Geo. Barrett could both serve the purpose of a big pinch hitter and primary backup C. Plus he probably can play a few other positions, given his history. Of course, we'd need to have a guy capable of playing emergency C for when we wanted to use MB's bat as a PH. Again, I know it'll never happen. BTW, am I remembering right that the Padres re-upped Barrett (or gave him arbitration) ala Todd Walker before?
