00:00How has he been this year overall just to watch and evaluate from your perspective?
00:06I mean, from a hitting standpoint, what he's doing is absolutely remarkable.
00:10It kind of reminds me of towards the end of Chris Bryant's tenure in Des Moines
00:15where you just realized there was absolutely nothing left that he could do
00:20from an offensive standpoint where he's just not getting challenged really at all.
00:26So from that standpoint, he looks absolutely amazing.
00:30But then the question still remains is like, okay, where does Moises end up playing?
00:36Is he going to be behind the play?
00:38Is he going to be at first base?
00:39Is he going to be a DH?
00:41Now, the one thing I'll say is the people I talk to throughout the organization,
00:46the people that are around him on a continual basis,
00:53just rave about the work ethic that he has of how he's going about things,
00:58trying to improve his work behind the play and try to become a better catcher.
01:03And I think part of the problem, too, is like, man, his bat is so good and so advanced
01:09that we're kind of like, okay, well, the glove should be just as good behind the plate.
01:15But he's only 21 years old.
01:17He's still a young guy that hasn't played that much catcher.
01:19But there is definitely work that needs to be done.
01:23You know, some of the scouts I've talked to that have watched him kind of wonder
01:27if that's going to be his home behind the plate.
01:30And I think there are some questions about how well he could fare at first base, too.
01:36Kind of the consensus I've gotten from talking to a lot of people outside the organization
01:45that I've seen by Stero's play is that he might end up a DH.
01:50Now, like I said, he's still super young.
01:53He's still super inexperienced when it comes to that position.
01:57And he is working his butt off.
01:59Everybody will tell you that throughout the organization,
02:03that he's going to do whatever it takes to make it work.
02:07But that's kind of the big question mark when it comes to him is,
02:12where do you play him defensively?
