I think Brian’s overall point stands. The pecking order of defense always seems to be C/SS-CF-2B-3B-RF-LF-1B-DH. Moving a guy down the order until you’re sure he’s not gonna make it is rare. I also think there are plenty of spots for all our 3B prospects still, with room to move up or down depending on how they play.
Memphis-Montero
Springfield-Gorman
Palm Beach-Fill In
Peoria-Nunez
GCL-Walker
I think the position will sort itself out eventually. It would be a nice problem to have if all four of those guys are in the majors in 4 years and the Cards have to find a place to play them. There’s a ton of potential in those bats so if they all make it, it will be a coup for the scouting and development team in St Louis.
