All kidding aside, that's a really exciting sign.
I don't understand the negativity. He missed like half a season.
PORT ST. LUCIE, Fla. — In the Washington Nationals’ 6-3 loss to the Mets on Sunday, Brady House hustled out to the infield as a defensive replacement for Michael Chavis in the sixth inning. He stopped at the infield grass near shortstop, took one warm-up throw, then walked toward his new home on the field as if he suddenly realized he was in the wrong spot.As expected, House — drafted as a high school shortstop in 2021 — has officially been moved to third base. House said last year that he wanted to stick at shortstop but because of his build — he’s listed at 6-foot-4 and 215 pounds already — the Nationals envisioned him playing at the hot corner. House said Sunday morning that he hasn’t played third base consistently in 10 years.“The biggest adjustment for me has just been knowing that I have time,” House said. “At shortstop, obviously, (you can) work through the ball and all that stuff. At third base, it’s more of like … the ball tends to get on you quicker. So just figuring that out and working on that.”
Cal Ripken and I think other guys who made the SS to 3B switch have said that 3B beats you up more physically because there is more diving routinely. I suppose they would not have made the switch to 3B rather 2nd if they thought he could not take the punishment.

I think there's a few guys in this system who were prematurely written off by some or most. The back for a kid his age is concerning, but there's no question he can mash when he's on the field. I think Henry and Rutledge would be others. To me, the potential for these written down assets to be productive gives the system additional upside should some of the other high potential guys not reach their peak projections.
