Episode Notes

The Los Angeles Dodgers offense sputters as Shohei Ohtani finally homers but team slips further in their losing streak.

Can Ohtani’s bat reignite a struggling lineup, or will LA’s slump deepen as key stars falter? Harry Ruiz and Travis Rodgers dissect Yoshinobu Yamamoto’s concerning spike in home runs allowed and question if fatigue or pitch location issues are catching up with the Dodgers’ ace.

The Dodgers make a quietly bold move, acquiring former Diamondbacks outfielder Alek Thomas for depth—could this be another classic Andrew Friedman revival project or just minor league insurance? We weigh the risks of keeping Roki Sasaki at the major league level despite his struggles, debating if growing pains now are worth the gamble for long-term rotation dominance. All that and more on today’s episode of Locked On Dodgers!!
