I would completely ignore the "anointed" thing and have him play the position he wants to play the most. Those things change so much over time that projecting what someone is going to be doing in 5 years when they are 10 is just laughable. The kid who was the catcher on my son's all-star team at 12 (ahead of my son) was the RF when they were 15, while my son was catching. (they both catch now, at rival high schools) Kids change, even if their parents think they won't.
