I don't think that should be the focus. I think the focus should be winning baseball games against every team. I don't think focusing on the Dodgers is going to help us win at all. I think when you focus on a certain team, when you get to play that team, you're going to tense up and you're not gonna be the same team.
The Dodgers have 40 players under team control for the 2026 season and seven who are currently free agents. The Dodgers recently added prospects Robinson Ortiz and Ryan Ward to their 40-man roster in order to protect them from the upcoming MLB Rule 5 Draft. To make room for those additions, the Dodgers outrighted Justin Dean and Michael Grove to Triple-A Oklahoma City while designating Tony Gonsolin for assignment.
The Los Angeles Dodgers have a major decision to make surrounding All-Star third baseman Max Muncy. The 35-year-old slugger broke out of quite the slump during the first two months of the season and batted .258 with a .880 OPS and 17 home runs before he suffered an oblique strain in mid August. In other news, specifically for those who claim that the Dodgers are ruining baseball, Game 7 of the World Series hit historic television ratings across the United States, Canada, and Japan.
