What is astonishing about it is the reasoning by both Moore and Hillman use on why Butler can't play first. It's only because Butler doesn't have as much range and Gload and they just can't have that defensive liability on the field
. Moore also said they have no intention of ever playing Butler at first except in inter league play. Meanwhile, when discussing the 1b position, Moore said we absolutely need a guy hitting 25+ HR's there. And yet he starts Gload every single day
. I don't want to doubt Moore as a GM but when he says things like this I kind of wonder...
