Where Would Mickey Play?

As spring training 1965 drew to a close, it was obvious that Mickey had lost his agility and was a liability in center field. It was a difficult time for all involved, especially Mickey, who was the team leader and still was one of the greatest hitters in the game. Running In a straight line, he remained one of the fastest players in the game.
