Blalock to 1B, Davis to 3B
According to several local reports, when Hank Blalock
returns to the active roster (presumably within a week, after a brief rehab
assignment with Frisco), he’ll settle in as the starting first baseman, and Chris
Davis will slide across the infield to third base.
The objective to get Blalock’s bat into the lineup, as his
right shoulder is still sore enough to impair his ability to make throws across
the infield.
Jon Daniels says the move will last for the remainder of
the season.
