Trea Turner reached free agency this week, and there figures to be a pretty high demand for the 30-year-old All-Star.There are three other big-name shortstops on the market, too, and L.A Chase Daniel Jersey . president of baseball operations Andrew Friedman said on Tuesday the team will be in touch with all three of them as they Gabe Nabers Jersey and Trea both weigh their options.The more notable part of Friedman's comment, though, was his suggestion that the Dodgers don't need to sign any of the big names because they have a perfectly fine replacement for Trea already on the roster.Gavin Lux played shortstop every day for Los Angeles for a couple months in 2021, between when Corey Seager broke his hand in May and when he joined Seager on the injured list in July. In 59 games at short (including 50 starts), Lux made seven errors and posted a -4 Outs Above Average.

If he could improve the defense a little bit and the hitting a little bit, he'd be a perfectly reasonable option as a starting shortstop. But yeah, when the argument in favor boils down to "if he hits better and fields better, he'll be fine," chances are they're not actually going to Larry Rountree III Jersey go that route.
