And he's not Greinke level, at least not in his current state. I'm just a proponent of the dual player system since it's worked for me in the past. It won't stunt his development in either role, so there's no harm in finding out if he'll develop into a Greinke (or Rivera-type closer) while also developing him as a hitter. Give it three years and see what happens. There's nothing to lose if done properly.
