McGuiness to work in outfield this spring
Christopher McGuiness - 1B - Cleveland Indians

Chris McGuiness will get some work in the outfield this spring due to the Indians' depth at first base.

The 24-year-old was a Rule 5 pick in December after hitting .268/.366/.474 for the Rangers' Double-A affiliate in 2012. McGuiness has a chance to make the Indians' Opening Day roster as a bench bat, and increasing his versatility will only help that cause.
