At the beginning of the season, I, and I would venture many other fans of the Los Angeles Dodgers, didn’t think this team would amount to what we have been previously accustomed.
So many fan favorites moved on over the past two seasons, like Cody Bellinger and Justin Turner. Sure Cody had a down season last year, but look what’s he’s accomplishing in Chicago. JT also is producing in his new home to Boston.

When the 2023 season started, fans of the Los Angeles Dodgers were underwhelmed with who made up the team. Now after the trade deadline, they also might feel underwhelmed about the moves that were, and more importantly, were not made.

Last time we talked, I proposed that these first three series would do a lot to telling much about how the Los Angeles Dodgers’ second half of the season would go. So far, so good. Currently, the Dodgers are two games above both the Arizona Diamondbacks and San Francisco Giants for first place in the division.
The Dodgers started by taking two of three from the New York Mets, and then two of three from the AL East leading Orioles in Baltimore. (I was in attendance for two of those games. Highly recommend going to Camden Yards if you are able).
