Sprinkle in a few games at third base in the minor leagues and there was only one remaining infield position he hadn’t played in his professional baseball career.

They will check the various markets, see whether trade partners and free agents provide any solutions. Trey Gibson will be a phone call away. He’s easy to reach.
