Designated Hitter (1): J.D. Martinez

Obviously.

Infielders (8): Will Smith, Freddie Freeman, Max Muncy, Miguel Vargas, Miguel Rojas, Austin Barnes, Chris Taylor, Yonny Hernandez

Lux is out. Michael Busch could sneak back in, but he's underperforming at the moment, while Yonny Hernandez, who the Dodgers traded for in the offseason, is scorching. Andrew Friedman said Chris Taylor is expected to be the backup shortstop behind Miguel Rojas, who will now be the starter after being the projected utility man. The Dodgers can try a multitude of infield configurations over the next three weeks, but this seems to be the picture at the moment based on performances/injuries.

However, something tells us another trade/addition is coming before Spring Training ends.
