Although 23-year-old phenom Kris Bryant will compete for the Cubs third-base job this spring, learning another position will be a part of his experience in Mesa.
"I feel like I'm pretty close now" to the big leagues, Bryant says.
Having three catchers on a 25-man roster just isn't realistic for any major league team.

"We have a really nice culture," Theo Epstein says.
The Cubs are paying tribute in other ways as well.
The Cubs have previously been floated as a potential trade partner.
In a win for the Cubs, a federal court judge on Thursday refused to grant a request by the owners of a pair of Wrigley Field rooftops to stop the team's installation of outfield signs that would block their valuable view.
"I have a pretty good opportunity in front of me," Bryant says.
