I still think a team could use him as a right handed option at DH. If Manny Ramirez can get a shot, I don't how Vlad isn't getting his.According to CBS Sports' Jon Heyman, Vladimir Guerrero could spend the 2012 season in Japan if he's unable to secure an offer from a big league team by Opening Day.
Guerrero has struggled to attract interest on the open market this offseason after registering a career-low .733 OPS in 145 games last year for the Orioles. His inability to play defense makes him a less-than-desirable option for a bench role, and most American League teams are already set at designated hitter.
