Dodgers Not Yet Committed To Gavin Lux As Starting Shortstop
Posted: Fri Mar 8, 2024 1:27 pm
The Los Angeles Dodgers have yet to commit to Gavin Lux as their everyday shortstop this season.
\"I don\'t know,\" Dave Roberts said when asked about Lux taking over the job, adding that \"performance matters.\"
Lux was supposed to take over the starting shortstop role last season after Trea Turner departed as a free agent, but a knee injury in spring training cost Lux the entire 2023 season.
His defense has been an issue this spring.
\"I think we just have to understand that it still takes time to get back up to major league speed and feel that once the bell rings that it\'ll be there where it needs to be,\" Roberts said.
