Last week, we saw Dodgers rookie Miguel Vargas working on defense with his new veteran teammate Miguel Rojas down in Florida. The workouts were taking place at Nova Southeastern University in Davie, just outside of Fort Lauderdale.
It didn’t cross my mind at the time, but I probably should have thought of JD Martinez at the time. Like Vargas and Rojas, Martinez is based in Miami in the offseason. And like Vargas, Martinez has Cuban parents, although Martinez’s parents came to the U.S. before he was born. But perhaps most notably, Martinez actually attended Nova Southeastern, where the Miggys were working out.
