Nationals Zimmerman's switch to first base adds new chapter
Nationals veteran Ryan Zimmerman moves from third to first base this spring in Viera Florida as Anthony Rendon and Adam LaRoche depart, with manager Matt Williams emphasizing the transition will be eased by Zimmerman's athleticism. Zimmerman, who played 61 games last season due to injuries, aims to stay in the lineup for about 150 games in 2015 and prove himself at a new corner infield spot.
