Edmundo Sosa Could Play Outfield
Philadelphia Phillies infielder Edmundo Sosa will be tried out in left field during spring training, and "there's a chance" he could also play center field, according to manager Rob Thomson. If Sosa looks good in center, it would give the Phillies another right-handed platoon option against left-handers other than Johan Rojas. "He'd become kind of a super-utility guy which would be a nice thing to have," Thomson said. "Until he gets out shagging and real reads off the bat, you really can't tell." Sosa played only two innings in center in 2023 and three innings in left field in 2022, so he has very little experience in the outfield. However, it will give Philly more options to get the 28-year-old's bat into the lineup if he's hot. He's still not much of a fantasy asset in mixed leagues with limited playing time, but Sosa getting reps in center field is bad news for Rojas.
