Kubtiza is being worked out at second base for the first time in his career, MLB.com's Alden Gonzalez reports.

EDGE Analysis

He won't appear at the keystone this season, as there is not enough time for him to learn the position from scratch, but it could be an option for the 25-year-old down the line. The move would make sense, as Kubitza's bat projects to be average at best for a third baseman, so if he could handle second base that would better fit his offensive skill set. Kaleb Cowart seems to be the team's preferred option at third base heading into next year, so second base may be Kubitza's best shot at making the team out of camp in 2016.
