Dodgers enter an offseason of uncertainty: bullpen and pitching depth top the to-do list, Shohei Ohtani's health is a question, and a likely Dec. 1 lockout could freeze the market. Andrew Friedman says the front office is preparing to act whenever the market opens. 🔒
This installment of "Great Moments in Dodger History" covers 2001-2013, opening with Shawn Green's record 49-homer season in 2001 and his 4-homer, 19-total-base game in 2002. Dan Evans' hiring of Logan White also reshaped the franchise's draft pipeline. ⚾
The Brewers dominate MLB's 2026 All-Postseason Team after sweeping through the NLCS against the Dodgers and winning the World Series. Jake Bauers' 11-pitch homer off Blake Snell and Brice Turang's shot off Tarik Skubal headline the Dodgers' October exit. 🧹

Dodgers' three-peat bid ended in a four-game NLCS sweep by Milwaukee, and Tampa Bay's quiet World Series loss in five makes it sting more. L.A. scored just 11 runs in the series, and an Ohtani three-run homer in Game 4 came too late. 😬
Dodgers landed Tarik Skubal at the deadline, and new reporting says Detroit stopped responding to Milwaukee after the Brewers offered Luis Peña, Jett Williams and Josh Adamczewski. The Tigers went quiet until the Dodgers deal was agreed. Brewers never got a final counter. 🔇
Shohei Ohtani finished runner-up to Cubs center fielder Pete Crow-Armstrong for both Players Choice Player of the Year and NL Outstanding Player. Crow-Armstrong's 40-40 season also makes him the NL MVP favorite, which would end Ohtani's grip on the award. 🏆
Former Dodger Dustin May now owns four World Series rings after Milwaukee beat Tampa Bay on Wednesday. He got two with LA (2020, 2024), then 2025 service and 2026 Brewers innings. Injuries nearly derailed him, yet the jewelry keeps coming. 💍
The Dodgers are early 2027 World Series favorites, even after Milwaukee swept them in the NLCS and went on to win the title. The market is betting on their offseason spending power, with Ohtani, Yamamoto, Freeman, Betts and Snell all under contract. 🔮
Nine Dodgers hit free agency after Milwaukee swept them in the NLCS: Skubal, Bubic, Graterol, Hernández, Lauer, Phillips, Rojas, Treinen and Vesia. Seven are pitchers, and Rojas will likely retire. The exclusive negotiating window runs through Nov. 2. ⏳
The Dodgers reportedly remain interested in a Tarik Skubal reunion, but may only be serious if he'd accept a short-term deal like Kyle Tucker's 4-year, $240M pact. Skubal can pick his price, so that's the hurdle. 💰
Since 2016, the Dodgers have won three World Series, and six times the eventual champ ended their run, including the Brewers in this year's NLCS. Only 2022's Padres loss came against a non-World Series team. The road to the title still runs through L.A. 🛣️
Roki Sasaki's goal of winning individual titles as a starter drew pushback after the Dodgers' NLCS sweep by Milwaukee. His 2026 ERA (4.49) nearly matched 2025's (4.46), and he still wasn't trusted regularly in October. Cy Young talk can wait. 🧢
Andrew Friedman says the Dodgers "feel really good" about the roster as is, despite key free agents and an offense that was inconsistent in 2026. The front office will still be aggressive and ready to pounce on upgrades whenever they appear. 🎯
Tarik Skubal posted a 2.72 ERA and 2.51 FIP after arriving at the 2026 deadline, but his return isn't guaranteed. The new CBA, a likely $40M-plus-per-year megadeal and the 6-man rotation are all wrinkles, so the Dodgers may need rotation backup plans. 🤔
Dodgers signed free-agent RHP Alberto Santos (6-foot-5) to a minor league contract, per the MLB transaction log. Low-profile depth, no 40-man implications, and little public track record. The offseason bargain bin is open. 📦
Dodgers' 40-man roster is set for the 2026-27 offseason, with 37 players listed. Tarik Skubal, Kiké Hernández, Evan Phillips, Alex Vesia and Blake Treinen are among nine who filed for free agency. A lockout looms after the CBA expires Dec. 1. 🔒
Glendale fell 11-9 to Peoria in the Arizona Fall League, and none of the 10 Dodgers on the roster played. The Desert Dogs trailed 6-0 early and rallied with 14 hits and six walks, but Peoria's pitching never gave them a shutdown inning. 🔁 Rematch Thursday.
Dodgers face a Nov. 18 deadline to protect minor leaguers from the Rule 5 Draft, with a possible lockout adding a wrinkle. Pitching depth looks like the priority, and RHP Christian Zazueta (3.65 ERA, 144 K in 103⅔ IP) is a near-lock to be added. 🔒
Nine Dodgers hit free agency, led by Tarik Skubal, who posted a 2.61 ERA in 10 starts after the Aug. 2 trade. Vesia, Phillips, Treinen, Graterol, Bubic, Lauer and Kiké Hernández also test the market; Rojas retires for a front-office role. 🔓
