The Padres are mulling the possibility of moving Bogaerts back to shortstop as Ha-Seong Kim's (shoulder) progress stalls, AJ Cassavell of MLB.com reports.
Bogaerts has expressed a desire to remain at second base now that he's become comfortable there, but on Sunday he seemed to be amendable to a move back to shortstop if it meant getting Donovan Solano's bat in the lineup. The 31-year-old moved to shortstop mid-game Sunday versus the Giants after the Padres pinch-hit for shortstop Mason McCoy when they were trailing by five runs at the time. Bogaerts has now been used at shortstop four times this season but has not made a start there.
