It’s a good thing the folks from Rawlings stopped by Salt River Fields the other day to measure many of the Arizona Diamondbacks position players for new baseball gloves.
Chris Owings is going to need three different styles and sizes, thank you very much.
That’s because manager Torey Lovullo just met with the 26-year-old and told him that instead of being the team’s everyday shortstop or second baseman, Owings will become more of a super utility player. He will not only man second and short on occasion, but also see some duty as an outfielder and for the first time in his pro career, play a little third base as well.
