He’s legitimately capable of gold glove caliber defense at 3 high value positions. Players like Oquendo (Mr. Versatility) and Biggio (who actually could play 2nd and catcher in the same game and later cf) were unique, but not elite at any one spot. When people suggest moving him, I have to remind them how incredibly valuable he is–especially to a national league team. He’s basically the Scottie Pippen of baseball when it comes to defense in that there’s no position he cannot lock down
