Why do we have a catcher playing 3rd?

With the exception of the error, Gilbert's looked pretty solid the past two

games. His bat and defense have been ok. He's been getting on base in front of Mangum.

Halter should be spending a lot of time with the pitchers for the rest of the year. Maybe he could be ready to pitch next year. He has a hell of an arm and was drafted out of juco because he lit up the radar gun when he pitched in a playoff game, which I believe was the only time he pitched.

He must not have much interest in pitching, but he isn’t going to get anywhere as a position player because of his bat.

I just don’t know if he can develop into an SEC pitcher in the little time that he has remaining. I can see him turning pro after this year if he gets drafted as a pitcher again.

Halter hasn’t been bad defensively. He’s been good at 2B and in limited time at SS he was great.

He was yanked after failing with little to no effort to back up 1st base. If your batting .256 you can't be lolly gagging on defense.
