Werth will move to left field in 2015 with Bryce Harper moving to right, William Ladson of MLB.com reports.

Analysis:

General manager Mike Rizzo said the decision was made because Harper will have more range in right, and for good measure reassured the media that both players have agreed to the switch. It's largely moot for fantasy purposes, as both will still be playing every day, though the move to a less strenuous position may help preserve Werth's health.
