The Dodgers will have a new right fielder when they play the Milwaukee Brewers on Monday, one with six Gold Glove awards at the position on his resume.
To say Mookie Betts is a perfect fit for the Dodgers’ inconsistent outfield is an understatement.
Still, it took a few conversations between Betts and manager Dave Roberts to get on the same page. Roberts announced Friday that Betts agreed to his third position change this year.
Betts began spring training as the Dodgers’ second baseman, then quickly shifted to shortstop when Gavin Lux struggled at the position early in Cactus League play.
