Our Right Fielder of the Future

Is none other than Matt Laporta, or at least he is going to be tried there. I think this is a pretty good move setting up Corey for center and making an outfield of super prospect former infielders.

This is a good idea

I'd imagine it's a lot easier to adjust to a new position (especially if its just going from LF to RF) while still a couple years from the majors. Hart already has experience in CF and now Braun will only have to make one move.

Braun-Hart-LaPorta is sure going to be fun to watch.

In the article

They also mentioned the possibility of Braun to center but that is probably pretty unlikely.

Heh

I still like how ex-minor leaguer Corey Hart was one of LaPorta's coaches last year.
