Belt was playing great no question.  But he’s out once again. Yes a shame but he’s not helping.    On the other hand I do hope he’s back next season

DC you know it’s beyond rare for a lefty to play else where other than OF

I understand what you're saying, of course Belt wouldn't play shortstop for that reason alone; my point was the broader one that he (like any first baseman) wouldn't have the athletic skills to play shortstop, even if he were right-handed.
