If there’s no Stroman deal, they’d still have spending money for an infielder, and the Rockies’ Brendan Rodgers and Paul DeJong, who ended last season with the Royals, are among decent options they’re considering.
For now, recovering former star D.J. LeMahieu will be given a chance to win a starting spot.
