I had to fight to keep myself from using more suggestive language that Doc would have scolded me for. LOL Z *loves* multi-position utility. He's taught it to everyone he can get away with teaching it to. Tui, Figgins, Lopez, Hannahan, Jo. Wilson, Garko (before he got DFA'ed), etc etc. He wants a roster that can change at a moment's notice based on the needs of the situation (if you suddenly can acquire a left fielder in trade without blowing up the farm...you want to be able to move the other pieces around to make that work...if someone gets injured or is severely ineffective...you want a wider list of possible candidates to replace him from your farm teams or your bench).
We don't know that Z necessarily plans on changing LF or not...we do know he plans on being ready if he's forced to change LF/DH.
