I thought Tex was the perfect fit. I mentioned about Montero being moved from catcher because I read, more than once that the organization thinks that he may be better suited for 1st base. I don't links, sorry. If he does keep growing (he is very young), then the abuse on his knees would shorten his career significantly........the team may be thinking in this line. :Yes very nice.

Until he's in his 30's, or becomes an absolute trainwreck at the position, can we not worry about moving him? Jesus Montero: 6’4″ 225

Joe Mauer: 6’5″ 230

I think he’ll be fine. Jesus doesn’t turn 20 until November. Until he’s in his 30′s, or becomes an absolute trainwreck at the position, can we not worry about moving him?
