MLB.com reports Diamondbacks first baseman Paul Goldschmidt has taken it upon himself to take some fly balls in the outfield this spring. The club has no plans of moving him out there and the 25-year-old is doing so just in case it comes up in the future. "I know it's probably a few years away," Goldschmidt said Sunday of the possibility of having to play outfield in a pinch. "But it would be nice to do a little bit now, and then when it's 2015 and an emergency comes up, I'm ready. I guess something could happen this year, but with the roster we have, I don't know. More so for next year or two years down the road in case they need something, it's not like I'm starting from scratch; I will at least have done something."
