Moving him just to make room for another guy who has yet to play in the big leagues doesn't necessarily make sense either. While I like the idea of bringing Senzel up to the major leagues, I don't like the notion of moving anyone out of their position for that purpose.
Pereza has some proven abilities at the major league level while Senzel has none. You only pull off these moves when the minor leaguer has proven themselves at the major league level and not until then.
I think Senzel will be a fine major league player, but until he actually proves it he's still just a minor leaguer. 

I get what you're saying but at the same time they're most likely going to have to get a little creative to get the best bats in the lineup.

You're talking major leaguers here but the Big Red Machine didn't really reach it's peak until they moved Pete Rose from the outfield to 3rd base and got George Fosters bat in the lineup.
