I assume the Royals have made the correct decision to force him into a utility role. It doesn't matter how good his defense is at third, you can't have such a terrible hitter there long term. It appears his long term path to a major league career is being able to handle multiple positions well defensively, which has some value, because his bat doesn't look like it's going to play anywhere.
