Can Lee Handle Short?

[Dave Borton]

I haven't see Lee play. Lots of time at SS in college and minors; minimal in MLB.

Does he have the range for SS at the MLB level? The arm? Asking.

No. Poor range, weak arm. Correa's range is also limited, but he has one of the best arms in all of baseball to make up for it.

Lee's primary assets for defense are his instincts, positioning, and fundamental techniques. It's possible Lee could be serviceable at SS, but he's not going to be average or above.

[Linus]

Definitely not a regular big league SS which was known at the time he was drafted. He does have good hands - could be an excellent 3rd baseman.
