My question is why wouldn't Dewitt be moved to second and Laroche brought up for third base. Dewitt played 2nd base in the minors and he seems more athletic enough to handle second than Laroche. I know he wasn't as good at second as he was at 3rd, but how bad was he? As bad as Delwyn or as bad as Kent? It just seems like the most sensible move.

Blake DeWitt could being taking ground balls at second base, according Manager Joe Torre, but DeWitt hasn't heard anything about it yet. "I liked playing there," said DeWitt, who spent part of the 2006 season at Class A Vero Beach playing second. "If the opportunity came up, playing a game there would be fine."
