Rockies' Ian Desmond says he'll play mostly left field in 2018
Colorado Rockies outfielder Ian Desmond says that he expects to play mostly left field in 2018.
What It Means:
"I will be ready to play first base if they need me to," Desmond said on Sunday, "but right now, from what I understand it’s going to be mostly left field." Desmond only started 22 games at first base in 2017, so this isn't a big surprise with the Rockies looking to Ryan McMahon to be the main first baseman this season.
Desmond averaged 8.9 FanDuel points per game in 2017.
