As long as he hits, I would keep him. One thing I also do with guys that look to be utilitiy players is teach them serveral positions, especially if they are fast, as they end up with better range and seem to learn the position quicker. I like my defensive backups to hit at least .250 and play 2B/3B/SS or all 3 OF positions. My backup catcher will also often be taught 1B and/or 3B.
