The Los Angeles Dodgers have moved former American League MVP Mookie Betts to shortstop for the 2024 season, although the defensive outlook doesn't appear promising.
An anonymous scout called the Dodgers' infield defense "the worst in the game," according to Jon Heyman of the New York Post.
Betts switched positions after Gavin Lux dealt with issues throwing to first base in the spring, so manager Dave Roberts moved him to second base in order to decrease the distance between Lux and first baseman Freddie Freeman.
While Betts has won six Gold Glove awards in his career, they've all come during his days in the outfield.
