Overview
- Manager Stephen Vogt said Kwan will take center-field reps this spring as the team assesses its best outfield alignment.
- Reporting originating with The Athletic frames the move as a spring experiment rather than a permanent position change.
- As camp opens, the expected setup still places Kwan in left with Chase DeLauter in center and George Valera in right.
- If Kwan handles center, Vogt could deploy more mix-and-match defensive looks based on opponent and game situation.
- Coverage notes the potential defensive trade-off of moving an elite left fielder, while Kwan’s bat remains a priority after a 2025 All-Star season.
