I think Deichmann is the guy at 1B.

Deichman needs a ton of work there. He struggles on ground balls, he strays too far from the base at times, his foot work is poor, and he doesn't know the little nuances like meeting the throw from the pitcher on a pickoff so he can create an angle to throw to second to get the stealing baserunner.

Reid will have competition at 3B.

Yes he will.

We also need to find a C. I really like Pap, but C may not be his spot. He must close his eyes on every pitch because he has trouble catching pitches and he is usually searching for the ball off the bat.

---

I wonder if he's too tall sometimes. He lacks a lot of things at catcher. Good hands blocking ability and athleticism.

Duplantis will have a spot, but I'm not sold on his glove in CF.

He is a LFer.

2 outfield spots will be up for grabs.

Yes, and we have plenty of DH types.

Freeman is a stud at second base, but if he goes its wide open.

Robinson had a great season, but he's not a three hole guy.
