Cubs | Javier Baez to remain at shortThu, 05 Dec 2013 16:25:29 -0800
Chicago Cubs SS Javier Baez will stay at shortstop despite being blocked by SS Starlin Castro at the big league level. Baez was the team's first-round pick in 2011, and scouts are saying that Baez is such a good athlete that he could play any position. "At some point, creating options and creating versatility is a good thing," executive Theo Epstein said. "In Javy's case, he's got a tremendous combination of instincts and athleticism which makes us think he'll be a natural at playing other positions." Baez was the team's minor league player of the year last year after hitting .282 with 37 home runs and 111 RBIs at Single-A Daytona and Double-A Tennessee.
