Phil Gurnee ♦ March 9, 2019 ♦ Leave a comment

MLB put out there projected 2019 lineups for every team and these lineups are populated with ex-Dodgers or players who had been in the Dodger farm system.

Nathan Eovaldi – slated to be number four in the Red Sox rotation

Carlos Santana – starting 1st baseman for Indians

Hanley Ramirez – starting DH for Indians

Manny Banuelos – slated to be number five in the White Sox rotation

Josh Reddick – starting RF for Houston

Brett Anderson – slated to be number three in the Oakland rotation

Frankie Montas – slated to be number five in the Oakland rotation

Dee Gordon – back to being a starting 2nd baseman, for Seattle

Miguel Rojas – slated to be the starting shortstop for the Marlins

Peter O’Brien – slated to be the starting RF for the Marlins – this is a bit of a shocker. O’Brien was in the Dodger system in 2017 and did quite poor. He was once a real prospect for the Diamondbacks but it never worked out.

Curtis Granderson – slated to be the starting LF for the Marlins.

Brian Dozier – slated to be the starting 2nd baseman for the Nationals

Zach Eflin – slated to be number four in the Philly rotation

Yazmani Grandal – slated to be the starting catcher for the Brewers

Yu Darvish – slated to be number two in the Cub rotation

Yasiel Puig – slated to be the starting right fielder for the Reds

Jose Peraza – slated to be the starting shortstop for the Reds

Matt Kemp and Scott Schebler are backup outfielders right now according to the beat writer who does the projected starting lineup but I doubt that holds up.

Alex Wood – slated to number three in the Red rotation

Zack Greinke – slated to be the ace of the Diamondback rotation

Manny Machado – slated to be the starting shortstop for the Padres
