Roberts says his lineup thoughts are “not set in stone,” but he plans to have Mookie Betts bat leadoff followed by Freddie Freeman and Trea Turner.
GLENDALE, Ariz. — It is, as Dave Roberts likes to say, a high-class problem.
Both Betts and Turner have primarily batted leadoff in their careers. According to Roberts, though, Turner does not have as strong a preference as Betts for where he bats in a lineup. Since joining the Dodgers in 2020, Betts has made it clear he feels most comfortable batting leadoff. Most of Freeman’s experience hitting second in a lineup has come in the past two seasons after spending most of his career in the No. 3 spot.
