But to the point there from the godfather about O'Neal Cruz potentially moving from center field to third base after he already moved from shortstop to center field, I don't want to keep doing that to the guy.

I really don't.

Do you wonder, will he ever become a good defensive player?

Maybe if you just let the guy play the position you put him in.

Don't pull the plug so quickly.

I'm going to keep the guy out in center field.

We know their defense is not going to be good this year.

especially in the outfield, with how things are shaping up.

Reynolds, O'Hearn, Cruz.

But I don't want to keep changing the position of a guy that I don't want to say shouldn't be messed with, but let's just cool the waters there.

Calm the waters.

Because...

O'Neal Cruz, who has some pressure off his shoulders.

We've talked about that throughout this week.

When it comes to the offensive side of the game, he's got pressure off.

He doesn't have to be the most explosive or best player in the lineup.

And I think that will benefit him.

I don't want to throw another wrench into that of, hey, by the way, O'Neal, we're going to move you to third base now and have you play there.

Your time in center field is done.

I don't know.
