Really hard to imagine Moose having good range and turning 2 as a 2nd baseman.

Agree.
That might be the Brewers plan, but he's going to have a really short season if that's the case. He's a third baseman with really great agility for his size but a history of knee injuries, very little vertical agility or overall speed and I can't recall any game in recent memory where he distinguished himself at second base. I'm probably wrong, but I don't think he would hold up physically playing second over a full season and his maybe 260 BA with maybe 30 HR's. He shoulda came home for a better fit and then we might win 70 or 75 games. Maybe more, weather is bad this year. Our young pitching might take us into late june with a .500 record if it stays cold.
