"[Trumbo has] already spent a lot of time [out there in the outfield]. He was out there with [Wayne Kirby] Kirb today at 8:30 in the morning while we were all having corn flakes," Showalter said. "He's been doing that, preparing for all the possibilities. We knew a possible addition might come, and we didn't want to wait until the end.
"We've been doing it since the day he got here. Whether it's right field, first base or left field, we'll continue to get looks. We haven't done a whole lot in the games in left field, but we've done stuff on the back fields.
