Spring Training is baseball’s annual mirage season. A few weeks in Arizona or Florida and suddenly a utility infielder is Babe Ruth, a 29-year-old minor leaguer looks like the next MVP, and fans begin carving statues before Opening Day. Then… the roster comes out and that hero of March is riding a bus to Triple-A. Right about now, many Dodger fans are anointing Santiago Espinal as the World MVP. After all, he is hitting .625 with a 1.761 OPS. Of course, this is after several hundred at-bats… oh, it’s only 16 ABs? Who knew? Nick Senzel is OPS’ing 1.
