Dodgers infielder Gavin Lux was the top player in the minor leagues in 2019 as a shortstop with Double-A Tulsa and Triple-A Oklahoma City. Between those two levels, Lux posted a 1.028 OPS with 59 extra-base hits in 523 plate appearances. On defense, Lux cut his errors at short in half from 2018 to 2019.
Lux has played mostly second base in his time in the big leagues because of the presence of Corey Seager and then Trea Turner at shortstop in Los Angeles. But with Seager and Turner gone, Lux slides into the role as LA’s starting shortstop for 2023.
