Dodgers prospect Gavin Lux was supposed to be easing into his first full season in the Major Leagues by now. Slated to start the season as the everyday second baseman in Los Angeles, the 22-year-old, who is ranked the top prospect in the Dodgers rich farm system, has instead been spending his time honing his video game skills and working out by himself in Wisconsin.
In a text conversation with ESPN analyst Buster Olney, Lux joked he feels like the movie character Rocky Balboa while training in isolation in Wisconsin. Lux has been working out of a friend’s gym during the quarantine.
