Unless a trade comes together, Brewers general manager Doug Melvin will allow Gabe Gross, Tony Gwynn Jr., Joe Dillon and Gabe Kapler - back from a one-year retirement - to battle for playing time in left field. As Melvin noted, not every contending club is set at every position. 'We have seven of the eight spots set,' said Melvin, who might eventually opt to toss 40-year-old free agent Kenny Lofton into the outfield mix as well.

Lofton in left and leading off about 120 games makes the Brewers lineup better. They folded like a lawn chair down the stretch last year.
