Is Tretter worth a look?

I keep wondering why we haven’t at least brought JC Tretter in for a look (or have we and I just missed it)? He seems like a much better option than anyone we have here, and at this stage in the year, how much could he cost? He’s only 31 years old, so he’s got at least a few more good years in him, no? And the difference btwn an experienced Center handling the protection calls versus someone new-ish at the job could be a big difference for DJ, no? I’d think we would want to err on the side of making things as simple as possible for him so he can have as much success as possible. Strong Center play could be a huge plus for him. I know we told Feliciano that he’d get a shot at playing Center, but this is a results-oriented business. We have to do what’s best for the whole team, not just for one guy we brought over with us from Buffalo.

What do you guys think? Would you be happy to see Tretter at Center, even if it cost us, say, Slayton to make the salary work? I would, and I like Slayton.
