FORT MYERS, Fla. -- "Positional flexibility" is a popular phrase around Rays camp. It has been ever since Joe Maddon arrived to manage the team prior to the 2006 season.
If you join the Rays, better bring some extra gloves along, because chances are, they're going to want to take a look at you playing other positions. Daniel Robertson came to the Rays prior to the 2015 season in the five-player deal that sent Ben Zobrist -- one of the aforementioned positional flexibility standards -- to the A's. Shortstop was Robertson's main position until last season at Triple-A Durham, where he started 75 games at shortstop, 20 games at third and 21 at second.
