Published on by Dennis Schlossman6 Comments

The starting rotation of the Los Angeles Dodgers has entered a new era, as a true ace has not yet emerged to replace the legendary Clayton Kershaw, who shouldered the role for nearly a decade. With Kershaw’s health concerns and diminished role, several high-profile arms now vie for the coveted status as the staff’s undisputed leader.

We could talk forever about the specifics of Glasnow’s contract extension and what it means to the team going forward. The trade with the Rays was contingent on Glasnow agreeing to a five-year- $136 million deal, ensuring he’ll likely be around if or when Shohei Ohtani joins the rotation.

Righty Bobby Miller threw seven strong innings, and Mookie Betts continued his offensive tear as the Los Angeles Dodgers defeated the Atlanta Braves 3-1, salvaging a win in an otherwise disappointing series against the National League’s best club.

Initially, it looked like it would be an exciting series after the Dodgers mounted an amazing comeback when starter Lance Lynn got throttled in the opener, but Los Angeles lost its momentum on an ugly strikeout from Enrique Hernandez to end the game.

Dodgers Prospect Watch: A Closer Look at Bobby Miller

Published on by Dennis Schlossman33 Comments

Fans who pay close attention to the Dodgers’ farm system know that the last two seasons where like no other in recent history.
