Rockies' Trevor Story: In line for time at short this spring
With Jose Reyes placed on paid administrative leave Tuesday, Story appears in line to see significant reps at shortstop in the early going of spring training.
Reyes' status remains up in the air, as the leave merely buys time for the Commissioner's Office to decide on a suspension in relation to Reyes' offseason domestic violence arrest. However, with Reyes away from the team and the start of Cactus League action nearing, it looks like Story could see the bulk of the work at short, at least to begin the spring slate. Story posted an .863 OPS with 20 homers and 22 steals in 130 games between Double-A and Triple-A last season, earning a spot on the Rockies' 40-man roster. The other shortstop options behind Reyes and Story include Cristhian Adames, Daniel Descalso, and Rafael Ynoa.
