Dodgers' Gavin Lux: Could be out of starting job
Lux might be out of a starting job next season with the Dodgers planning to move Mookie Betts back to the infield, Noah Camras of DodgersNation.com reports.
The Dodgers have not said whether Betts would play shortstop or second base, but with Miguel Rojas and Tommy Edman available as shortstop options, Betts' likelier destination is probably the keystone. Seemingly, that would push Lux to the bench or perhaps the trade block. Lux had a .562 OPS in the first half of the 2024 season but finished strong in the second half with an .899 OPS. He then struggled in the postseason (.580 OPS) while battling a hip issue. Lux will turn 27 later this month and is under team control through 2026.

Dodgers' Gavin Lux: Moved down to No. 9 spot
Lux will start at second base and bat ninth Wednesday in Game 5 of the World Series versus the Yankees.
It's the lowest spot in the batting order so far this postseason for Lux, who is just 1-for-17 at the plate over his last seven playoff contests. It's possible he's still not feeling totally healthy after suffering a hip flexor injury in Game 1 of the NLCS. Lux is flip-flopping spots in the lineup with Tommy Edman, who will hit seventh Wednesday.

Lux (hip) will start at second base and bat eighth Friday in Game 1 of the World Series against the Yankees, Travis Sawchik of theScore.com reports.
Lux didn't start Game 6 of the NLCS as he dealt with continued soreness in his hip, but with extra rest between series he's ready to give it a go. The 26-year-old Lux is 5-for-24 with one home run during the 2024 postseason.

Dodgers' Gavin Lux: Not in lineup for Game 6
Lux (hip) is absent from the Dodgers' lineup for Game 6 of the NLCS against the Mets on Sunday, Noah Camras of DodgersNation.com reports.
Manager Dave Roberts said Sunday that Lux is sitting not just because of the Mets sending southpaw Sean Manaea to the mound, but also because Lux is still not fully recovered from a hip flexor injury, per Jack Harris of the Los Angeles Times. Chris Taylor will start at second base for Game 6 of the NLCS, but Lux will be available off the bench.

Lux had to depart Game 1 and didn't play Game 2 because of hip flexor tightness, but he's feeling well enough to give it a go Wednesday. The 26-year-old is 5-for-19 with one home run in six contests so far this postseason.

Dodgers' Gavin Lux: Expected to start Wednesday
Manager Dave Roberts said he expects Lux (hip) to be back in the lineup Wednesday for Game 3 of the NLCS, Matthew Moreno of DodgerBlue.com reports.
Lux was absent from the lineup in Game 2 after being removed from Game 1 due to hip-flexor tightness. The second baseman is 5-for-19 with a home run and two walks in the 2024 postseason. If he is back in the lineup as expected Wednesday, he will be facing Mets' right-handed starter Luis Severino.

Dodgers' Gavin Lux: Absent from Game 2 lineup
Lux (hip) is not in the lineup Monday for Game 2 of the NLCS against the Mets, Jack Harris of the Los Angeles Times reports.
Lux had to be lifted from Game 1 in the seventh inning due to hip flexor tightness. He will be available to pinch hit in Game 2 but will not be used on defense.

Dodgers' Gavin Lux: Has hip tightness
Lux was removed from Sunday's Game 1 of the NLCS due to hip flexor tightness, Bill Plunkett of The Orange County Register reports.
Lux talked to a trainer after grounding out in the sixth inning and didn't take the field to start the seventh frame. It's now known he's battling hip flexor soreness, which likely means he'll be tabbed day-to-day. Regardless of his health, the lefty-hitting Lux isn't likely to be in the lineup for Game 2 against southpaw Sean Manaea and the Mets.

Dodgers' Gavin Lux: Exits game in seventh inning
Lux (undisclosed) was seen talking to a trainer in the dugout after grounding out in the sixth inning of Sunday's Game 1 of the NLCS before exiting the game in the top of the seventh, Jack Harris of the Los Angeles Times reports.
It's unclear why Lux was lifted from the contest, but his conversations with a trainer could indicate it's injury-related. Kevin Kiermaier replaced Lux in the lineup and stepped into center field while Enrique Hernandez shifted to second base. Lux went 0-for-1 with a walk and a run scored before leaving.

Dodgers' Gavin Lux: Sitting against righty
Lux is not in Sunday's lineup against the Rockies.
Lux had started seven games in a row coming into this one, and his last absence was with a lefty on the hill for the opponent, so it's surprising to see him sitting Sunday against righty Ryan Feltner. Chris Taylor, who is hitting .471 over his last 17 at-bats, draws the start at the keystone.
