Dodgers News
The Dodgers are riding high after a solid 6-2 victory over the Mariners, but the looming trade rumors surrounding Eric Lauer are simply perplexing. With Shohei Ohtani back in the lineup and making noise, the Dodgers' handling of his nagging injuries raises eyebrows. Meanwhile, Roki Sasaki is proving his worth in the rotation, showing that the Dodgers' investment in his development is paying off handsomely. As they prepare to face the Red Sox, Yoshinobu Yamamoto looks to secure his 12th win, adding to the team's current momentum after winning 5 of their last 7 games. The vibe is warm, but the front office needs to clarify their strategy as they strive for October glory.
