There's just a lot of fits from just a player.

Presser: Alex Anthopoulos Is Explaining His Signing (Iglesias) And Trade (Dubon)

Yeah, I would say shortstop.

Baseball Isn’t Boring
Presser: Alex Anthopoulos Is Explaining His Signing (Iglesias) And Trade (Dubon)

I would just say his role will be determined on what else we do this winter.

I said, I have no idea what the roster is going to look like come spring training.
