Dodgers’ second base battle: Enrique Hernandez vs. Chris Taylor

With just over a week until the Dodgers open their 2019 season, most position battles seem to be all-but settled. Barring an injury during the final week of Spring games, the Dodgers seem set in their starters at nearly every position. Austin Barnes‘ torrid Spring has him in the drivers’ seat to be the primary catcher despite a terrible 2018 season offensively. More likely than not, Joc Pederson will be the primary left fielder with Alex Verdugo being too good for the minors and still the fourth-best full-time outfielder on the Dodgers.
