Offensively, he's off to a more-than-good start. I'm intrigued by the IDEA of Torres as a SS candidate.

However, can someone please provide a scouting report on his defense at that position?

While Torres has played some SS both this year and in the past, he certainly gets the bulk of his time at 2B. I'm assuming that if he had the physical attributes needed for SS, he would get a more serious look there. Here's hoping I'm wrong on that assumption -- and that it's just a matter of Norfolk working its way through a few other options before they turn to Torres. (But somehow, I don't think so.)
