Has Bortles outgrown third? I assume he has but that would help with flexibility in the lineup. If he can only play first then Bortles or Orvis will always be the DH. That keeps Bell out of the lineup if he can't learn a position

I've been told that Bortles is a better glove than Bell, so while he may not have the range that Anderson has, he is less of a liability at the moment. King may can play there but not sure his arm strength is built for third

I'm not counting on King helping much right now, I'll keep why off the boards. But I've heard he is good and very solid on D

Hopefully, a two guys step up and can be weekend starters along with Trent. I think Smith would be better in a reliever role.

I don't see Short being able to be a starter but will be a very solid reliever

It may be worth playing Bortles at 3rd with the new balls. I have a feeling there are going to be a lot more HR's next season.
