To be honest, this is my first post on this site.  I just want to get the general opinion of everyone about how Shoppach will come into play when Victor returns.

First off, last year Shoppach was mainly Byrd's personal catcher.  Obviously, this was a test just to get Shoppach adjusted to the game and to get a good feel for the majors by sticking with one pitcher for the majority of the time.

With that said, by far Shoppach has been a great power bat to have this year considering the circumstances and not to mention he has become an everyday threat to opposing pitchers.

Now, with not even thinking about the remainder of this year, let's jump to 2009.  Victor and Pronk are back healthy, where does Shoppach fit in?  Position change when not filling in for Victor?  DH and Pronk play first?  Thoughts?
