5/08/24	Dodgers' infield defense has become a surprising strength. The Dodgers built a grand palace with some termites in the walls, it was said. Sure the Dodgers assembled one of their more anticipated rosters in a long time, but it had the potential to be destroyed from within by its defense. Gavin Lux was moved off shortstop in spring training because of throwing issues and placed at second base. Mookie Betts moved to short as a career outfielder who merely dabbled on the dirt in recent years. Source: https://www.sgvtribune.com/2024/05/08/dodgers-infi...
4/24/24	Dodgers News: Gavin Lux's Offensive Struggles Attributed To 'Mechanical' Issue. The 2024 season has not gone according to plan for Gavin Lux, who was expected to be the Los Angeles Dodgers' starting shortstop after missing all of last year due to a torn ACL and LCL in his right knee. Lux swung the bat well during Cactus League play but that has not carried over into the Dodgers' regular season schedule. Through 19 games (16 starts), he is hitting just .148/.224/.164 with one double, two RBI, six walks and 16 strikeouts in 67 plate appearances. “No, I don't think so,” Dodgers manager Dave Roberts answered when asked if Lux's offense struggles are related to his health.

4/16/24	Dodgers Rumors: Andy Pages Joining Roster. For all the expectations with the Los Angeles Dodgers lineup, the bottom third has largely underperformed to this point in the season. The bulk of that has been by the Dodgers' outfield depth and also some inconsistency from Gavin Lux. James Outman has swung the bat well at times and is in the midst of improved results, but the Dodgers have otherwise received little production from the likes of Chris Taylor, Kiké Hernández and Taylor Trammell. Jason Heyward didn't yet get into a rhythm prior to being placed on the 10-day injured list because of lower back tightness. Source: https://dodgerblue.com/dodgers-rumors-andy-pages-c...

Lux had the go-ahead hit with an RBI single that scored Max Muncy as part of a three-run sixth inning for the Dodgers. According to OptaSTATS, the Dodgers' victory over the Padres was the first time in MLB history that players named Gavin earned the win on the mound and drove in the game-winning run.

The Dodgers will seek their second victory over the Angels in the Freeway Series Monday evening at Dodger Stadium.

3/20/24	Jake Cronenworth's glove breaks at key moment, costing Padres in season opener vs Dodgers. Jake Cronenworth’s glove gave the All-Star first baseman a hole lot of trouble. Cronenworth was about to glove Gavin Lux's one-out chopper to start what appeared to be an easy-inning double play. Instead of the eighth inning ending with the score 2-2, the ball went through a hole in the webbing of Cronenworth's big first base mitt as Teoscar Hernández crossed the plate with the go-ahead run.

3/14/24	Dodgers News: Gavin Lux Feeling More Comfortable At Second Base. The Los Angeles Dodgers have been trying groom Gavin Lux as their shortstop of the future dating back to last season. Through no fault of the Dodgers or Lux, that plan was derailed pretty quickly in 2023 because of a season-ending right knee injury he suffered early into Spring Training. While the Dodgers went on a $1 billion spending spree during the offseason, none of that was at shortstop. The Dodgers still had faith Lux could be a stalwart at the position for years to come after spending the past year recovering from knee surgery. Source: https://dodgerblue.com/?p=2084461...
3/13/24	Gavin Lux & Max Muncy Expected To Travel With Dodgers To South Korea. Gavin Lux and Max Muncy did not play in the Los Angeles Dodgers' penultimate Cactus League game against the San Francisco Giants on Tuesday due to being under the weather. Lux was in the Dodgers lineup on Sunday and Monday, which made him unlikely to play anyhow. Meanwhile, Muncy has not played since Saturday against the Texas Rangers. The Dodgers are trying to contain the illness from spreading to the rest of the roster, which is imperative considering the team will soon be traveling to South Korea.

3/06/24	Dodgers' Dave Roberts 'not worried' about Gavin Lux's defensive issues. Gavin Lux is returning to shortstop after two seasons away from the position and a major knee injury. Max Muncy is coming off a poor defensive season at third base. Wednesday's Cactus League game gave reason for concern, however – particularly with Lux. “With Gavin, it's just more of continuing to run him out there so he can build confidence in how he's catching the ball, his footwork and getting the ball across the diamond,” Roberts said after Wednesday's game against the Chicago White Sox.
