Who's on First.....Micah??

Beyond the Box Score (focused on sabermetrics) had their preview of the D-backs last week. One comment that stood out was "Micah Owings will pitch in between playing first base; apparently he's decent at it". Hmm....there were some rumblings last year that Micah playing first base was a remote possibility. But, unless Micah becomes worthless on the hill (which I see no sign of happening), the D-backs would be foolish to put him out there in the field on any regular basis. I see more pinch hitting appearances..possibly even a DH role in inter-league action.
