The Brewers are said to be casting a wide net in evaluating their options for first base. In addition to Jason Rogers they're looking at a number of free agents. So far this week we've taken a look at Daniel Nava and Chris Carter. Those two players represent opposite spectrums at first base. Nava is defense and versatility over offense and Carter is home runs and nothing else. Ike Davis is something in-between.
As is often the case with marginal major league talent, when a player does one impressive thing in one season it drives his employment regardless if he ever does it again.
