They did it with Perez.
The kid is an extremely advanced hitter and always has been (South Carolina was expecting to plug him into the 3 hole in its lineup). He already has experienced failure and overcome it.
He also has played 10 games in CF and started there 5 nights in a row (including two with the scouting director for KC in attendance). I can't imagine he's any worse there than Melky Cabrera, who's god-awful.
Probably just an experiment, and something to get him some time there in case Cain gets hurt again (He's a bit injury prone). But intriguing, nontheless.
