If there was even a hint of an opening, it would be different. But there are so many people in line in front of Dallas, who don't have near the questions that he does, it would take something crazy for him to be a realistic option. It isn't like we are talking about a bullpen spot where there is legitimate competition right now, or the 5th starter spot where Peavy is still a question mark.
Morel is hardly a sure thing, Teahen is not the answer and Vizquel is too old to hold the job through the season. Tank is, well, lacking defensively. I'm not saying it'll happen, but the opportunity for DM is there if he can grab it.
