The Dodgers shortstop position has been…interesting in 2023. After Trea Turner signed with the Philadelphia Phillies in free agency, the Dodgers were planning on finally giving Gavin Lux the reins. However, he tore his ACL in spring training, ending his season before it even began.
Fortunately, the Dodgers had traded for longtime veteran infielder Miguel Rojas a few months prior, and he was then slated to be the team’s starting shortstop. However, he’s started the season in a slump, and is now on the injured list with a hamstring strain.
