Soler has yet to play an Inning at any other position than RF in the majors or minors. Zobrist has played 8 games in a long MLB career at 3b and only 9 games many years ago in the minors. Baez has played exactly 1 inning at 1b in his entire career and he's also never played an inning of OF according to Baseball reference.
I realize Maddon loves playing guys all over the place, but until they actual begin playing those positions, we'll leave the defensive ratings as they are for now.
