That's set in stone as my Starting 3B has the position locked down for the foreseeable future. The dilemma is actually a backup catcher dilemma. It comes down to these two guys: Bauer and Andres Andres had the start most of this season and did poorly on the offensive side of the ball, if he stays he will be the permanent backup. Bauer is a slow developer with solid potential. I had hopes for in the OF but there is so much depth there I am warming up to putting him as a catcher. I can keep Bauer in AAA one more year as he probably could use it, but opening up that roster spot is very tempting. tl;dr Keep Andres as the backup C or promote Bauer next season as backup C.

Lots of ways to get value out of him. Andres is a suitable back up C if you have the roster space. I always ending up cutting guys like that when roster spots get tight.
