A couple of them have no positional experience so a lot of errors which is to be expected. Can someone have a look and advise on my plan and put me right if I've made any terrible mistakes

Why not move Sellers to CF and start Greene at catcher? Seller's range is wasted there, and his scouting report would make him a slightly better defensive CF in my eye. You're not losing anything defensively at either position, then, IMO. Granted I didn't compare their offensive numbers, so there's probably a very good reason why Greene's riding the pine, but on the surface, Sellers is an OF to me.

Still, Sellers isn't really a great prospect. If you are solely trying to train up youngsters, I would get more in the mix and forget about guys who are already developed. Salmon -> DH Koch -> C (nice to get more OF innings, but at least he knows the position already) Cattaneo -> CF Steward -> LF Updated Thursday, November 24 2016 @ 8:06:58 am PST
