It appears increasingly likely that Jean Segura will be the Philadelphia Phillies third baseman on Opening Day in Miami on March 26. And the organization’s brass can’t seem to say enough positive things about the work that the soon-to-be 30-year-old has put in to make that a possibility.

When general manager Matt Klentak was able to ink Didi Gregorius to a one-year/$14 million deal in free agency, the thought was that Segura, who was the team’s primary shortstop a season ago, would shift to second base.
