The 2020 MLB season did not go as planned for many players, with Spring Training ending prematurely and the regular season being pushed back until late July. For the Los Angeles Dodgers, David Price opted out, while others struggled to find a rhythm.
This held true for Gavin Lux, who entered the year with high expectations coming off a breakout 2019 season in the Minors. He was the favorite to win the Dodgers’ starting job at second base, but never really found his footing.
Lux reported late to Summer Camp after the long layoff due to undisclosed reasons, and once he did show up, it was clear he was a step behind his teammates.
