Greene could slide into 2B: Cardinals general manager John Mozeliak said Saturday that 2B Tyler Greene will receive "a strong opportunity" to earn the starting job at second base for the upcoming season, according to the St. Louis Post-Dispatch. Greene is expected to compete with Daniel Descalso and Skip Schumaker for the job during spring training. "I have a little more experience on the left side," Greene told the newspaper. "I've spent a lot of time at second this offseason, getting reps." (Updated 01/14/2012)

Fantasy Analysis
Greene shined with Triple-A Memphis last season and hit .323 with 14 homers and 35 extra-base hits. He also drove in 43 runs in 66 games before earning a late-season promotion. "We look at his athleticism and what he's capable of doing ... seeing that for a large volume or 150 games would be quite interesting to us," Mozeliak told the Post-Dispatch. "We just want to see if he's capable of doing it." Fantasy owners should view him as a decent late-round option in NL-only drafts if he lands a starting role. (Updated 01/14/2012).
