This isn't something that our new group of outfielders ( Carlos Gonzalez , Dexter Fowler and Michael Cuddyer ) has been doing all year.

I think I have the ability to do a lot of everything." - Charlie Blackmon on MLB.com (Thomas Harding, 09/22/2013, 'Blackmon taking advantage of playing time', Source )
