Billy's strategy now?
Is it to corner the market on future catchers? If you have a mandatory piece to the machine that no one else has (or can feasibly produce), then how much can you charge for that piece? If this is his strategy, it is just another way of approaching the "moneyball" paradigm. Instead of acquiring under-valued players, maybe he is stockpiling prospects at one position in order to artificially drive up their price and distribute them above market value. Is that possible? If that is the plan, it seems like more of a plan for two years from now, and I hope it works.

Basic defensive breakdown according to Bill James
Players that can run, but can't throw play left.
Players that can do both play center.
Players that can do neither play 1st base.
