In hindsight, if one squints hard enough, the acquisition of Tanner Scott made sense. The 2024 Dodgers had a bullpen that overachieved, but was getting a bit long in the tooth with Blake Treinen as the de facto closer. When the Dodgers acquired Scott in January, he was the best relief arm on the market. […]

The offseason hot stove ignited during the Winter Meetings with Dylan Cease, Kyle Schwarber, and Pete Alonso all signing megadeals and the Dodgers landing their new closer in Edwin Díaz over the last week.

The Winter Meetings have concluded with the Royals yet to address their glaring outfield needs. The free agent market became thinner when former Royals outfielder Mike Yastrzemski signed a two-year deal with the Braves this week.

Many factors help make the Dodgers into this seemingly all-consuming juggernaut we see before ourselves at the present time, and it goes beyond purely the financial advantages they have, which is not to say we should dismiss them—having a lot more money than the majority of other teams is what allows the reigning back-to-back champs […]

It’s not supposed to be this easy. When Shohei Ohtani signed with the Dodgers two offseasons ago, there was the expectation that the Dodgers would eventually win a Championship. Yes, the current run of success with Dave Roberts at the helm from 2016 to 2023 was largely the envy of baseball in all categories except […]

There were little bits of baseball news today. I was sad to see that the Dodgers signed Edwin Diaz. He’s getting 3 years at $23 million a year. I’d imagine that the Jays would have matched that, but who knows. I’d guess that the Dodgers are a a draw for any player. So we turn […]
