Not after the injury disaster that happened to start last year. He's not a good defender there (and hurts himself playing it) and IIRC he doesn't DH particularly well. He plays first base. That's his gig. If he's not gonna play 1B here then he wasn't gonna play here, and that's what it came down to unfortunately.
I didn't want to sign Raul, but I don't think it's Carp's spot he's taking - it seems more like Casper Wells's or Eric Thames's. But I guess we'll see nearer the end of Spring Training.
