Nola could occasionally log starts at third base this season, Greg Johns of MLB.com reports.
Nola is expected to primarily split catching duties with Tom Murphy, but manager Scott Servais confirmed Wednesday that Nola may occasionally spell veteran Kyle Seager at the hot corner as well. Accordingly, Nola took groundballs at third base during Tuesday's summer camp session, and Servais is highly confident in the 30-year-old making a smooth transition to the position from time to time if called upon. "He can go over there and grab an infield glove and look like he's been there the whole time," Servais said. "He jumped in there yesterday and looked as polished as anybody on the field."
