The Milwaukee Brewers need to fill a hole at first base and Ryan Braun is an option.
"Well, we've talked about it," Ron Roenicke said.
Braun has already moved from shortstop at the University of Miami to third base, left field and right field during his years with the Brewers.
Milwaukee is reluctant to move him because he still runs well and has a superior throwing arm, traits that would be wasted at first base.
"I haven't talked enough with Doug [Melvin, Milwaukee's general manager] about it to even know if there would be a reason to [move Braun]," Roenicke said. "I still think he is a good defender in the outfield. Learning the new position, I thought he picked up pretty fast, and I think he'll continue to get better in right.
"So it's just what the needs are. I know we have [Gerardo] Parra over here now, and we'll figure out what to do with him next year."
