He's played first base since he was a kid. Suggesting he now move to a new position, after establishing himself as a gold glove first baseman is bizarre. And if you think the difference between Hos at 1st instead of Billy Butler is a small one, then I don't know what to tell you. It's absolutely less valuable than some other positions, but that doesn't mean it doesn't matter.
