I didn't say that he was going to make a full-time move to 1B anytime soon. He'll be catching for the entire length of his current contract, his value plummets if he goes elsewhere on the field.
Full-time catchers can only play about 130 games. If Perez can also play 1B and if Butler is cleared out of DH, then we can get those other 30 games out of Perez.
