@Michael "Bear" Norris All considered, I'd say that Mark's AI-powered post about the physical decline in thirty-something players is an argument for Mookie, at 34, to shift to 2B, which is much less demanding than SS.
After all, that has been the plan for Mookie for years. No doubt AF signed him to the long-term contract anticipating an eventual shift to 2B. It was AF's misplaced confidence in Lux as a SS that prompted Mookie to take on that role--and he's been pretty great at it. Could he play SS another season? Sure. But should he?
I think Freddie will be ensconced at 1B until he is injured or his decline is too obvious to ignore. So Tibbs is, for now, either an insurance policy for Freddie or a damn nice trade chip. Although he can play a corner OF spot, I don't see him in the mix for 4th outfielder, with guys like Sirota, Ehrhard and perhaps Davalan as better options.
If an injury takes Freddie down for a long period, the Dodgers also have the option of shifting Max back to 1B. Max, of course, is aging too, but perhaps not as swiftly. In '26 he put up better numbers than Freddie. He had an .838 OPS with 29 HRs, while Freddie posted .792 with 16 HRs.
