Dodgers Reporter Feels Friedman, Team Have Been Preparing for Gavin Lux to Take Over at Shortstop

The Dodgers don’t have a ton of holes to fill this offseason. They definitely need to shore up the starting rotation, and the potential loss of Trea Turner leaves a huge hole at the shortstop position. However, many people around the Dodgers think the team could fill that hole internally, as opposed to externally via free agency or a trade.

The Dodgers have a few capable shortstops currently on the roster, including Gavin Lux and Chris Taylor. One Dodgers reporter recently told MLB Network’s Alanna Rizzo that the Dodgers are prepared to hand Lux the reins as the everyday shortstop.
