Going into the initial Spring Training in 2020, it appeared as though the Dodgers second base job belonged to Gavin Lux. After all, the number one prospect in the organization is the favorite to win the NL Rookie of the Year.
But Lux has appeared in just a few Dodgers intrasquad games after arriving late to Summer Camp. He got into the exhibition game late on Sunday, but he also struck out in both at-bats. Chris Taylor got the start at 2B in Monday’s game a day after Kiké Hernandez got the nod there. That led many to wonder how far behind Lux actually is.
