It isn't like you'd be making Rasmus learn 3B, like Lind did (OF to 1B), as they are completely different positions. I don't think a shift from CF to LF is a major change, and something that could be ironed out over spring training. Is it a different read - sure. But everything else stays the same,

Plus, versatility is a huge thing to have. With Bautista, Rasmus, Marisnick, and Gose, we have some great players/prospects moving forward. Rasmus, Marisnick and Gose all have plenty of experience in CF and could all shift to one of the corners easily. I would really prefer to keep those 4 players for the long term and find pitching help via FA and trades involving Rajai Davis, JPA, Kelly Johnson, etc.
