2023 Player Outlook

It is going to take a village at second base this season, and we know the Dodgers have no issues shuffling pieces around the diamond,. Things will likely be no different for Vargas regardless of his pedigree after two straight strong minor league seasons. Last year in Triple-A, Vargas .304 while showing both power and speed with 17 home runs and 16 stolen bases while scoring 100 runs and picking up 82 RBI. Plate skills are key here as Vargas had a 13.7% walk rate last year while striking out just 14.6% of the time in 2022. Even if not all of that translates to the major league level, Vargas is starting from a good place and the pressure will be off him in a strong LA lineup.
