Wouldn't it be worth it to get 4 Billy Butler at bats opposed to risking the 1-2 defensive liabilities?

Maybe not, or maybe Hosmer could go there and be fine, although I prefer not to disrupt 2 positions instead of just 1.

I suppose this is just the fatass DH tax we have to pay.
If we were, God forbid, an NL team, then Butler would be 1B, and Hosmer would have to learn RF.
