I think Bates will fill the roll of the center fielder (marvin hates calling his safeties "free" and "strong" and says both need to be able to do both). I think it will be a competition between Iloka and Williams to see who gets the other safety spot, both in terms of performance and also in terms of who can stay healthy.
I think this was a mistake by Marv and it has shown since Reggie left.
Hell, even Reggie said he was more of a FS here and that is why he thrived more then in Jacksonville.
Bates i see as Marv actually owning up to his mistakes for once. What the heck is happening around here?
For the good i mean, we get a first round Center and a center fielding ballhawking FS with our first two picks!
