Dodgers News
Teoscar Hernández is making a strong case for the Dodgers' decision to bring him on board, powering the team with another two-run homer in last night's 4-1 victory over the Reds, marking his second consecutive game with a long ball. As the Dodgers clinched their postseason berth, the atmosphere in the clubhouse is heating up, especially with Shohei Ohtani resuming swing training after his recent injury, hinting at a potential return. However, not all news is rosy, Edwin Díaz’s struggles continue to raise eyebrows, with his spot on the playoff roster increasingly uncertain. With the Dodgers sitting comfortably atop the division at 91-59 and boasting a recent 5-2 stretch with a remarkable +21 run differential, they've positioned themselves well for the postseason, but the pressure to refine their roster looms large.
