Hmmmm. I'm not sure about Wright, as he's not seemed to live up to his early potential. I'm not sure he's a meaningful upgrade at third, since A-Rod's far from a stiff there, and I am sure he's not necessarily an upgrade at the plate, as he's "slipped" nearly as badly as has A-Rod . . . and from a lesser height. And I'm pretty sure A-Rod's ego would not let him agree peacefully to being "demoted" to DH, and Girardi doesn't need problems like that in the clubhouse. Still, it's an interesting thought.
