Dallas McPherson anyone?

According to MLB Trade Rumors, the Marlins have released 1B/3B Dallas McPherson.  He bats lefty, and according to his numbers has always had enormous power.  Looks like he has never had a real shot in the majors, so he could be the prototypical AAAA player.  He had a monster year for the Marlins AAA team last year... .275/.379/.618 with 42 bombs (I know the PCL inflates those numbers some).  He did make 17 errors at 3B last year, so he is somewhat like Encarnacion in the field, but he would be a good lefty bench bat that could play both corners.He has had injury trouble in the past, but played a full season last year.

 

Career Minor League batting line in 2,273 At bats:

Thoughts anyone?
