Dodgers 26-Man Roster: More Thoughts About Left Field
While most of the team progress surrounding the Dodgers so far this spring has been optimistically steady, one of the most frequent topics of conversation has been the nagging side injury of Joc Pederson and how it may affect the dynamics of the Opening Day roster.
According to most reports, Pederson will make his spring debut on Sunday in a minor league game. The plan is to have him play five full innings.
Whether Joc is healthy enough to compete in the regular season opener or not is really the biggest issue at hand. If his current progress is any indication, he’ll be ready sooner than later, and he’ll likely slide into the role as the primary left fielder upon doing so.
