Guerrero at Third? On Second Thought, Play Him at First

Why are the Dodgers asking Tom Lasorda to play Pedro Guerrero at third base in 1988? Don’t they remember three years ago when Guerrero showed what happens when you play a wedge of Swiss cheese, with lots of holes, at third base? The Dodgers should do what every other major league team has down with a power hitter who can’t field: Play him at first base, trade him for a quality third baseman or wish you had the designated hitter rule.
