At this point he feels like a guy who can just stand around at multiple positions and the Cubs already have Coghlan and Schwarber pretending to play multiple positions (cheaply).

He provides insurance at 2B, can relieve Soler (RHP) and Schwarber (LHP) against dominant pitching, hold LF on the one day a week Schwarber will be catching and provide dependable late game defense if he doesn’t start. And did I mention the strike zone control and OBP? IMO, fits perfectly.
