SCOTTSDALE, Ariz. -- Like cars on the 405 at rush hour, all of the Los Angeles Dodgers' second-base options are packed tightly together, leaving little to no wiggle room.
Micah Johnson is wedged into this traffic jam, eager to get to his location, while knowing that patience still can be his best ally.
Traded to the Dodgers this winter from the Chicago White Sox, Johnson is in a fight for a second-base spot on a team that has guys like Howie Kendrick, Chase Utley, Enrique Hernandez and Alex Guerrero already with a track record in the organization.
