Upton may return to infield?

It's time for some Gamer Theory: Luka Doncic plays Overwatch, and is in the 99th percentile of performance. He's in the 100th percentile of NBA players, but it's important to understand he's also elite pretending to be a futuristic gladiator and talking trash to teenagers.

I would really like to see us find a permanent spot for BJ in the field. The fact that we keep moving him around isn't affecting his offensive numbers, but we really can't expect him to develop into a reliable fielder if we keep moving him around.

I'm all for versatile players, but Upton is the furthest player defensively from a utility player.

I have to admit that Upton is still very intriguing at 2B.

But, now after seeing him in CF, he seems at home and a natural there.

I'd like to see him stay there.
