Proof he has to be moved? Let the guy get in a full season and improve. And please, people need to stop on this "Newman makes all the routine plays". No he doesn't. If he made all the routine plays, he wouldn't have any errors. Errors are charged for not making the routine plays. He has 5 errors in only 246 innings at SS. That extrapolates to 13 errors if he had as many innings played at SS as Cruz. I think when I look at everything he brings to the table, I can live with 2 more errors from Cruz.
And I left defensive zone ratings, fielding percentage, fly balls caught in shallow center field on a sunny afternoon in St. Louis on a Wednesday out of the equation.
