MI Logjam (good problem to have)

Having second thoughts on how I want to handle this, so I figured I'd run it by the better GMs out here.

At the moment, my current plan was to take my current SS and move him to 2B, because I have a rule 5 player from last season that went from good defense / shitty bat to INSANSE defense / below average bat. (I also have a new rule 5 guy from before the new SS increased from 40 contact - I was expecting the current SS to be a utility IF like he was in his rule 5)

However, I have a player that looks good in the minors (currently at AAA), that the best move may be to have the rookie play second, the old SS stay put, and last year's rule 5 guy be a late inning defensive replacement at short. I'm inclined to think I should let him play a full year at AAA instead of jumping to MLB from AA, though.

Checking if I'm overvaluing defense or under estimating the hole it would create in the lineup

Player Ratings below (From my scout - will post the numbers after starting thread to make it a little easier to read)
