Dodgers moving Mookie Betts to shortstop is misguided, maddening
Quick Glance: Misguided Move: Dodgers Shift Mookie Betts to Shortstop
  • The Dodgers had ample time to address Gavin Lux's struggles at shortstop but opted to move Mookie Betts instead.

  • Betts is displaced to accommodate Lux at second base for offensive reasons, a decision that raises questions about the team's strategy.

  • Delay in finding a new shortstop reveals organizational shortcomings, with Lux's performance in just six spring games dictating the sudden position change.

  • The Dodgers' disruptive move to shift Betts exemplifies a troubling pattern of prioritizing analytics over player stability and success.
