Philadelphia Phillies: 5 Versatile Prospects in the Farm System

When you look at today’s game, being able to play multiple positions is important.  Look at a guy like Ben Zobrist of the Tampa Bay Rays.  He can play seven positions.

With versatility, it makes it easier for the manager to shake things up, and make in-game substitutions.  When someone gets hurt, these are guys that you can plug in.

The same goes for Wilson Valdez.  He can play the outfield and infield as well.
