Dodgers’ Andrew Friedman Reveals Plan for Mookie Betts at Shortstop

The Dodgers have done plenty to augment their depth at the shortstop position since Mookie Betts went down with a fracture in his left hand on June 16.

Miguel Rojas got a long run and mostly thrived, hitting .262 while playing his typically excellent defense at the position after taking over as the everyday starter. More recently, however, his production began to flag as the effects of a forearm strain set in — eventually sending Rojas to the injured list on July 22.

The Dodgers then acquired Amed Rosario in a trade with the Tampa Bay Rays.
