Best infielder: Adrian Gonzalez

Right out of the gate, a really tough decision. It was either the butter-and-eggs man or Justin Turner, who defied all logic for the second straight season and maybe is the real deal and not just a product of a sky high BABIP. Turner put up a better overall slash line (.294/.370/.491) than Gonzalez (.275/.350/.480) and played pretty good defense at third, but he missed a little too much time for him to win this honor over Gonzalez.

Turner missed 36 games, and while that isn’t a huge number it really hurt the Dodgers, who were without a suitable backup at third for most of the season after Juan Uribe was traded. Gonzalez played in 156 of the teams 162 games, with solid offense regardless of lefty-lefty matchups and Gold Glove caliber defense at first.

Overall, both of them easily could have been the best infielder on the team. I gave the edge to Gonzo because, for the last three years, he’s been the most consistent and dependable bat in the Dodgers lineup.

Honorable mention- Turner, first half Yasmani Grandal
