I don't think the plan is to trade him, but I think they're playing the "showcase card" with him very well. If you can get a team to value him as a catcher, they'd be getting a lot more for him in a return.

As far as left field goes....Stick him in left, his value drops no matter how he plays. If he sucks, it's there for the world to see and it's one less versitle thing he can do if he can't catch. If he's ok, you're still conceding that he isn't a catcher long term after saying this whole time that he IS a catcher for the long term and his development at that position is paramount.
