If you want to keep both and you're weaker at 3B, I would move Henderson over there and let Baird play SS. But if you have a good 3B and need an upgrade at 2B, then you could try Baird at 2B and pair him with Henderson at SS.

The other option would be to deal Henderson and fill some other need or get that last piece to push you over the top. I had same dilemma with the Indians and had Tyler Freeman ready to make the jump but he was blocked by Lindor (who I happened to sign for 7 years), so I moved Freeman to 2B and he went on to win 5 gold gloves in 7 years and we made the playoffs 6 of those 7 seasons.

You have a very good problem.
