Justin Sellers will be the Dodgers starting shortstop Monday, according to CBSSports.com's Scott Miller.
After Hanley Ramirez went down, the team was expected to use Luis Cruz at short and Juan Uribe at third. Manager Don Mattingly added the move was made for defensive reasons, saying "we're willing to sacrifice offense to do it." Sellers, 27, hit .205/.286/.386 in 50 plate appearances last season.
