With Nick Senzel preparing for his MLB debut, the Cincinnati Reds are letting him play multiple positions this spring because of the presence of Eugenio Suarez. Suarez finally appeared at home at third base in 2017 after looking uncomfortable at shortstop. His defense at third went from awful to excellent.
Now Senzel is ready to debut, but he has only played third base in the minors. He was a shortstop in high school, but didn’t play there in college. At the University of Tennessee Senzel played second base and third base.
Shortly after the Reds drafted Senzel they traded Jay Bruce for Dilson Herrera.
