The Dodgers’ spring training was hit with quite the speed bump when starting shortstop Gavin Lux went down with a season-ending torn ACL. While the news was devastating for Lux, it also took out a key player from LA’s everyday lineup.
Fortunately, the Dodgers had traded for veteran infielder Miguel Rojas a few months back, and his role, which at first was supposed to be one for depth, is now much, much larger.
However, now that Rojas is going to be an everyday shortstop, the only other player with experience at the position on the roster is Chris Taylor.
