For the last two seasons Logan Forsythe has been the starting second baseman for the Tampa Bay Rays. Last night the Rays sent Forsythe to the Dodgers in a deal they determined was too good to pass up. As a result the Rays are now looking for their new second baseman.
Neander says the organization will use the next couple of weeks for clarity in determining the team’s second base situation, looking at internal and external options. Among the internal options are Tim Beckham, Nick Franklin and Daniel Robertson, or Brad Miller, if the team is to acquire one of the available free agent bats still available that plays first base.
