The Cincinnati Reds have been without third baseman Mike Moustakas since May 20th after the slugger was placed on the 10-day injured list with a nagging heel injury. While Moose has no timetable for a return, when he does, it should be at second base.

This is not to say that Moustakas is a poor third baseman. In fact, it’s quite the opposite.
