When you play shortstop, or expect to at a high level, one also needs good hands/soft hands
Scouts never look at defensive skills when scouting an athlete.....the theory is that good defense can be learned....soft hands, proper positioning, etc. can be taught through repetition, and therefore are not considered "natural" abilities.....
