I want to keep Correa and slide Lewis to 3rd ... with Miranda on 1st, Polanco on 2nd ... that would make a might fine infield ... right @chpettit19?

What should be done with Lewis when Correa returns?
Kepler is still pretty darn fast. Why not OF with Celestino, Martin, Buxton and Kepler? I think that is still an A+ outfield. Pair that with an A+ infield of my desire and that’s a team. Kirillofff is still such an if to me that I want someone more reliable at first. That would be Miranda for me. I think he is the most logical cover so why not just make him that when I think he ends up there most of the time anyway

What should be done with Lewis when Correa returns?
Okay, this is a question, and I don’t think there is a right answer … infield defense vs outfield defense. Is it more difficult to develop really good infielders than outfielders? Are really good infield defenders more at a premium or are outfield defenders? I just really think it’s a better team with Miranda, Polanco, Correa and Lewis (Miranda at 1st, Lewis at 3rd), than wasting Lewis in the outfield. Miranda’s defensive skills aren’t as good as Lewis’ and I think that makes for one heckuva infield. I think we have many more players in our system who would be good OFers. But then, I really like a good defense and think it’s as important to the game as offense.

What should be done with Lewis when Correa returns?
This season, yes, let him play all over, as long as there is playing time available, and that really could be the bigger issue once everyone gets healthy. If Lewis can't get regular playing time then he goes back, or someone else does. But next season, as I said, big IF for Correa to still be with the Twins, I want to see if Lewis can hold 3rd base. And I'd like to test that out this season. Miranda would move to 1st. That just seems like a great infield ... Miranda, Polanco, Correa, Lewis. Again ... big ifs ... and these grand wishes of mine rarely come to fruition. Lewis is a far better defender than Miranda so it would make sense to play them in those positions. And if Larnach's progress in the outfield is for real, you've got Larnach and Celestino out there as well as others coming up. (Yes, I know Kirilloff ... I'm not convinced his wrist issues will ever be over and he looks not ready.)

What should be done with Lewis when Correa returns?
IF Correa stays with us (and I know that’s a big if) I would want to move Lewis to 3rd. So, if/when he goes back to AAA, I’d like to see him get some reps at 3rd
