Julio Lugo goes down in the 1st inning against the Yankees at Fort Myers last weekend. His knee is being operated on today & it looks like Lugo will miss significant time at the start of the season.
Up steps Jed Lowrie, almost as if it was 2008 & deja vu all over again. He has put together multi-hits games since Lugo went down, including 3-4 with a home run yesterday. Lowrie has always been a sure-handed fielder, something that Lugo struggles with at times.
The competition is over for now. Lowrie has won an opening day spot at shortstop.
