Teoscar Hernandez is floated as a Dodgers trade candidate. ESPN's Buster Olney says Shohei Ohtani's DH lock leaves Hernandez no out as his defense declines, and moving him could open room for younger players. Nothing is confirmed. 🔄
Bleacher Report's Kerry Miller predicts the Dodgers could sign Braves Gold Glove utility man Mauricio Dubón to replace free agents Miguel Rojas and Kiké Hernández. Prediction only. With Freeman, Muncy, Betts and Teoscar aged 34-37, depth is the point. 🧤
Bob Wolfe, the Dodgers' COO since the Guggenheim takeover in 2012, will retire after 2026 and move into an advisory role. He worked alongside Stan Kasten from Atlanta onward. Also noted: Hall of Fame writer Ross Newhan, a 37-year LA Times veteran, died at 89.
Teruaki Sato was officially posted by Hanshin on Nov. 1, opening a 45-day window for all 30 MLB teams. The Dodgers could pursue him as they reshape after the Brewers sweep, though big-market rivals will compete, and no deal is reported. ⏳
Tarik Skubal hit free agency Monday, and the Dodgers and Mets are reportedly his top suitors for a projected $300 million-plus deal. He spent 2½ months with L.A. in 2026, but price may decide it, and it's unclear whether the Dodgers will match Steve Cohen's Mets. 💰
A fan column weighs Dodgers second-base options. It floats Brandon Lowe in free agency, or trades for Jeremy Pena or Zach Neto with Mookie moved to 2B, but backs Alex Freeland with a full year. It calls Jazz Chisholm Jr. a hard pass.
Dodgers' Gold Glove bids fell short: Max Muncy lost at third base to Alex Bregman, and Andy Pages lost in center field to Pete Crow-Armstrong. Muncy had a -2 OAA and 15 errors. Pages posted 10 OAA, with an arm that stood out. 🧤
Freddie Freeman, 37, enters the final year of his deal ($27M in 2027) and wants to stay. The argument: after a 120 wRC+, 16 homers and a 2.6 fWAR, his lowest since 2012, the Dodgers should resist extending him and pivot to younger talent. 🔍
On this day in 2025, the Dodgers beat the Toronto Blue Jays in Game 7 to become MLB's first repeat champion since the 1998-2000 Yankees. Rojas, Pages, Will Smith and Yamamoto get the credit. Back-to-back titles, in a series many call an all-timer. 🏆
One year after Game 7 of the 2025 World Series, True Blue LA looks back on what it calls arguably the greatest game ever played, finishing after 1 am local time. Mookie Betts and Tristan Peters are credited with the moment, and the 2026 NLCS exit is framed as the end of an era. 🔙
Tarik Skubal, traded to the Dodgers at the 2026 deadline, is now a free agent. Early industry talk suggests his price may fall short of $400M, with Boras reportedly targeting Yamamoto's $325M. Age (30) and elbow work could limit the contract length. 💰
Bleacher Report floats a hypothetical offseason pursuit of Angels shortstop Zach Neto, 25, with three years of control, even though Mookie Betts (114 wRC+, 3.7 fWAR in 2026) still plays strong defense. The Angels reportedly wouldn't love dealing with L.A.
Halloween brought out the Dodgers' costume game. Freddie Freeman's family went superhero (Spider-Man, Superwoman), Kyle Tucker went full Winnie the Pooh, and Max Muncy's crew did "Wreck-It Ralph." Kiké Hernández was the Joker. Offseason has its perks. 🎃
Kyle Tucker made MLB's All-Postseason Team in right field, hitting .333/.419/.519 and reaching base in all eight playoff games. A quiet regular season, then October redemption, and a springboard into 2027. 🔥
Chase Harlan is mashing in the Arizona Fall League: .308 with 4 homers and a 1.019+ OPS through 14 games for Glendale, including a 451-foot blast. He's also added first base to his third-base work, with help from Miguel Rojas, and says his oblique is 100% healthy. 💪
Hyun-Seok Jang, 22, is Rule 5 eligible, and protecting him looks like a bigger call than his 5.42 ERA suggests. The Korean righty with an upper-90s fastball cut his walk rate into single digits and fanned nearly 38% at High-A. 🎯
On this day in 1966, Sandy Koufax became MLB's first three-time Cy Young winner, unanimously, after going 27-9 with a 1.73 ERA and 317 strikeouts in his final season. Only Clayton Kershaw matches his total among Dodgers. 🏆
The Dodgers' offseason after missing the World Series centers on tough calls: eight free agents, including deadline acquisition Tarik Skubal, plus aging salaries, injury risk and a deep farm system. Andrew Friedman faces a pivotal winter. 🧩
The Dodgers' three-peat bid ended with the Brewers taking the title, but this look-ahead to 2027 sees LA bouncing back. A healthy Ohtani, a rebound from Kyle Tucker and more star power are the case, though the aging core's fatigue needs fixing. 🔧
Bud Selig called the Dodgers' spending "drunken sailor" territory while backing a salary cap in the next CBA. His comments follow the Brewers, No. 19 in payroll, winning the 2026 World Series over the 28th-ranked Rays. 🧾
