SF Giants’ utility player Mauricio Dubon has thrived in his new center field role this summer.

Mauricio Dubon ended last season as the SF Giants‘ starting second baseman. After spending pretty much all of his professional career as a shortstop, it seemed as though his future was still in the middle infield, albeit shifted over to the right side.

However, that notion changed going into the 2020 season.

The Giants made the decision to switch Dubon over from a typical second baseman to more of a utility player in the mold of someone like Chris Taylor of the Los Angeles Dodgers.
