could ee play ss
 
something I wonder I mean a-rod isn't very good defesively neither is ee but at ss a-rod was one of the best defensively so does anyone think ee could be a good ss.

wow. I personally think it would be worth a shot. Although i dont think his range would be very good, but it would be better if Rich stayed (move him to 3rd). Edwin played SS his entire life til Dayton I believe. I wouldn't mind him at 2B either, and BP as SS.

a lot of major league players played SS in high school. good athletes play ss or cf in high school. however EE is NOT a major league SS. if he fixes his throwing problems he could be a very good major league 3B. his reflexes are good.

He range is ranked among the worst at third, so no it wouldn't be a good idea.

It depends how big he gets. Right now I think he could do it, but who knows how big he will get.

Honestly, he needs to master his throwing before we think about moving him to SS though.

He is? Where did you see/hear that? I, and many others on this board have been under the impression that he has excellent range.

I think he could do it, but I'd rather not try.

He was given numerous opportunities to play SS in the low minors (I seem to recall that it was when he was jumped from low A to AA), and he struggled, and it affected his hitting.
Maybe RF is worth trying?

Hmm, no. His range is among the BEST in the majors.

The kid flat out covers some MAJOR real estate at the hot corner.
