It appears as if Ben Zobrist will be back in the A’s lineup a week from Monday at home – because he’s such a super-utility sort, they’d like to see him play several games in the infield, at least one in the outfield and maybe one at DH when he heads out on a rehab assignment on Tuesday.
Will he play mostly second, which initially was the plan for him with the A’s? Or could he wind up playing more at third – or shortstop, where Marcus Semien has struggled defensively?
