Scouting Report: Ginter can play 3B and 2B adequately, and in a pinch can also play LF and SS.  Has some major league experience.   Hasn't historically hit for average but has a little bit of home run pop for a utility man.   Decent on base ability, still strikes out a bit much.  Below average speed.
