I think with Lutz, I'd move him to LF and keep him there. The longer he plays the position, the better he will get.

Soto, I think I'd move him back to 3B and send him to ballet school or something if it would help him learn the position.

But there are others I would like to see get a chance at other positions. The Buckley kid was drafted as a 3B, and his bat looks as if he could stick for a while. And someone I know absolutely nothing about, but has put up decent (not great) numbers is Dominic D'Anna. Perhaps one of you who follow the minor leagues closer than I can shed some scouting light on D'Anna. Robert Maddox and Nick O'Shea pop up on the radar.

So there are several folks getting blocked for the forseeable future.
