Gavin Lux, now a Cincinnati Reds infielder after being traded from the Los Angeles Dodgers, is determined to prove his worth, particularly against left-handed pitching. His trade follows a successful tenure with the Dodgers, during which he was part of two championship teams but faced challenges hitting lefties. Lux acknowledges having a motivation chip on his shoulder and expresses gratitude for the opportunity with the Reds, who he believes align with his aspirations of winning and contributing positively to the team.
"Always, I think you have that chip on your shoulder," said Lux. "Every guy has a different chip. For me, I think that's one of them."
"I'll probably bounce around a little. As long as I get to hit, I don't care where it is."
"Obviously you still don't really expect it after being in one place for so long... They have to do what's best for them."
"A place where I think they think I can help."
