I'm just going by what I have read about him in the past. He projected to be a 3B because of lack of range, him having a good arm, and his bat. I want my middle infielders to have a lot of range. 2B and SS should be your best defensive players...not a liability defensively.
Average isn't nessessary a liability. But plus defender and a good bat, at 2B, not easy to pull off. I also like big range at 2B but options seem limited at the moment.

Scott Boras, his agent.
Boras is on the record saying that he is against what are considered to be team-friendly contracts. His job is to get his clients as much money as he can.
And he’s very, very good at it. Boras takes almost every single client of his to free agency. His m.o. is to create demand and a bidding war between multiple teams in order to drive the price up.

But if we look at the current 40-man roster, as well as a list of their top prospects, which of these players is repped by Scott Boras?
Here is a list of the top 5:.....
