Dodgers News
The Dodgers are riding a wave of momentum despite a tough loss to the Mariners, where Justin Wrobleski struggled, surrendering four homers in just six innings. With a record of 67-39 and a solid 5-2 mark over the last week, the team is on the hunt for reinforcements as the trade deadline approaches. The surprising DFA by the Tigers could change the landscape for catching options, possibly saving the Dodgers from a costly move. Meanwhile, Shohei Ohtani reminded everyone of his power with a leadoff home run, proving his swing is still intact despite ongoing knee issues. As Andrew Friedman aims to cement this era as the 'golden age of Dodger baseball,' the urgency to bolster the roster for a potential three-peat is palpable. The next challenge lies in a crucial game against the Mariners as the Dodgers seek to regain their footing.
