So we'll just see how the rest of the offseason goes.
But we know that in light of the injuries we've had and so on, he hits left-handers well.
There's just a lot of fits from just a player.
There's a lot of places to put him in and where he can impact us.
You know, we feel comfortable with him at shortstop.
I asked him tonight, how comfortable are you there?
And our underlying data on him at shortstop is good and strong.
But we think he's good at second, good at third, good in the corners, can play center field.
We like the contact and the speed as well.
So just a good piece.
You know you're going to need that over the course of the year.
We've had a bunch of injuries the last few years.
And the fact that he does it and he's a phenomenal teammate, just a great fit for us.
Yeah, I would say shortstop.
I would just say his role will be determined on what else we do this winter.

He has the ability to literally play every position.
