Yes, thanks for finally publicly recognizing and emphasizing Buehler's worth! I previously thought he was being under valued amidst all of the talk about free agents
As long as we have a pitch clock timer. All pitchers will be on the injury list. It is not enough recover time. MLB is ruining every pitchers arm. I would go on strike and demand no more pitch clock. They are not getting anymore fans with or without it. Fact of the matter is you either love baseball or you don’t. Pitch clock is not bring in fans. Just destroying arms!
Absolutely 💯 that's when all the injures started! Once they changed the pitch count to 20 seconds is when all the pitchers are out a year to two years! They have to realize that by now you'd think!!!!
I do think that when Soto signed a new long term contract to a team, that's when these free agents start to sign new contracts/extensions. Domino effect. But if I'm the Dodgers, I'll bring back Teo, Walker, Treinen and Kiké. Sign Adames, get Tanner Scott, one of Sasaki, Fried, Snell or Burnes, then we're good to go.
Rotation: Yamamoto, Glasnow, Ohtani, Fried or Beuhler, Miller/Kershaw, Roki Sasaki Bullpen Banda, Brasier, Gonsolin, Kopech, May, Phillips, Vesia, Treinen… Miller starts season in rotation till Kershaw returns. Then he could go to pen or back to OKC. Gosolin and May would be swing relievers/ spot starters. Would love to see Buehler back.
Glasnow is the only pitcher that I would want to pitch over 150 innings and he has never hit that mark. Unless we sign an ace, the pitchers that are currently signed or projected to be signed are either too young and you don't want to destroy their arm or they are coming back from injury. So yeah, a 6-man rotation would work for the champs. We want them fresh for October. Lets get the LA Japanese community to help bring Roki, bring back Buehler for 1 yr 13-16mill, and an ace. Lets get Crochet and Robert with Bobby Miller, Outman, and prospects (not including Josue De Paula). I think Miller can be really good on another team, but the lights of LA is a bit too bright for him.
My Dream 6-man rotation: 1) Sandy Koufax 2) Don Drysdale 3) Fernando Valenzuela 4) Don Sutton 5) Tommy John 6) Clayton Kershaw What do you think this rotation of these legends in their prime would cost today? FYI - In 1965 the Dodgers won the World Series with Koufax’s record 26-8, 2.04 ERA, 382 K’s & 27 complete games and Drysdale’s record of 23-12, 2.77 ERA, 210 K’s & 20 complete games. Their salaries that year were $70,000 each. Be for spring training the following year, they teamed up to try to negotiate raises, which was unheard of back then, as there was no free agency and the only way for players to move to another team was if they were traded, so because players were stuck to the team that held their contract, contracts were all for 1 year since there was no risk of losing a player and owners told players what they would be paid with no negotiation. Koufax & Drysdale not only tried to negotiate but we’re asking to be paid $150,000 each. When the team said No, they said they wouldn’t play until they got the salaries they wanted. They didn’t report for Spring training and right before the season started, the Dodgers agreed to increase their salaries to $125,090 for Koufax and $110,000 for Drysdale for the 1966 season (which was Sandy’s last season). Just a point of reference to show how drastically different the contract process and salaries are today compared to back when Koufax & Drysdale were in their prime years.
I think it's Yamamoto Glasnow Ohtani and 2 free agents. I would prefer Sasaki and Buehler. The sixth spot goes to whose healthy out of Kershaw May Gonsolin Hurt Sheehan Knack Wrobleski. It's not as sexy as your 6 but I think it's more realistic.
My 6 man rotation: Glasnow, Yamamoto, Ohtani (Gonsolin or Free Agent- the usual suspects, if SO is not ready) Gonsolin and Buehler. Bueher still needs to prove to me he can bring it in the regular season. If we want Crochet we need to trade Lux, Taylor (we pay half his salary) Rushing Outman and Mike Grove. That would clear space iin the 40 man roster and allow for some real position call ups.🔥🔥🔥
Glasnow, Buehler. Ohtani, Yamamoto, Gonsolin and Sheehan. Kershaw, Wrobleski and Miller to fill potential injury void. Move May to the bullpen and call up the Maytag Man!
I’m a new baseball fan and simply don’t understand why the team is still gonna change (not remain) members just who got to be champs and proof they made the best team

You can do a 5 man rotation to keep the same number of days rest for the starters but just give them a day off every few. And hold off on recovering pitchers til after all star week so the best pitchers are ready for postseason. Let's not play our best pitchers from opening day just to see them miss postseason. Not like baseball penalizes teams if key players DNP like NBA does.
Stone is out for 2025. How many times does this have to be stated? Also, the Dodgers are not bringing Flaherty back. So try again with a more realistic 6.
as an angel fan who loves Shohei Ohtani both as a human being and as a ball player, I got to tell you you’re gonna build a six men rotation, which is going to damage the other five and then Ohtani’s going to get hurt halfway through the season and go back to being a hitter only. At some point, someone’s gonna have to figure out a guy that’s already had three arm surgeries and a knee surgery who couldn’t handle being a two-way player when he was younger is not gonna be any better at it as he ages make him an outfielder, and he will be the best outfielder in the game
The only way Ohtani pitches is if he starts. If he comes in as a starter, he doesn't have to be removed from the lineup when they remove him as a pitcher. If he comes in as a reliever, once he gets removed as a pitcher, he also gets removed as a hitter. So because of the rules, it makes sense to keep him exclusively as a starter.
@@gabe0214there is no reason as to why Ohtani needs to DH on the days he pitches. This is how the Angels overused Ohtani and why he can never finish a complete season as a DH and full time starting pitcher. He never even made it to post season either with the Angels. So on days Ohtani pitches, Will Smith can DH or even Freeman and allow Munch to play 1B. There are different options for the regular season. Come post season, if Ohtani wants to start and try to pace 6 innings then fine. In order to do this though, Ohtani should be 6th in the rotation and skip ever other rotation. This is all about winning more World Series.
I think a 5 man rotation is best, with the 5th being Shohei and Kershaw switching. Shohei is to injury prone doing DH and pitching, Kershaw is too old to pitch every time. Keeps both arms as fresh as possible, and doesn’t ruin the other pitchers regular rotation

Do whatever it takes to bring back Teoscar.
As long as we have a pitch clock timer. All pitchers will be on the injury list. It is not enough recover time. MLB is ruining every pitchers arm. I would go on strike and demand no more pitch clock. They are not getting anymore fans with or without it. Fact of the matter is you either love baseball or you don’t. Pitch clock is not bring in fans. Just destroying arms!
Agree with you or add 15-20 secs more.

I do think that when Soto signed a new long term contract to a team, that's when these free agents start to sign new contracts/extensions. Domino effect. But if I'm the Dodgers, I'll bring back Teo, Walker, Treinen and Kiké. Sign Adames, get Tanner Scott, one of Sasaki, Fried, Snell or Burnes, then we're good to go.
Rotation:
Yamamoto, Glasnow, Ohtani, Fried or Beuhler, Miller/Kershaw, Roki Sasaki
Bullpen
Banda, Brasier, Gonsolin, Kopech, May, Phillips, Vesia, Treinen…
Miller starts season in rotation till Kershaw returns. Then he could go to pen or back to OKC. Gosolin and May would be swing relievers/ spot starters. Would love to see Buehler back.
Facts of we follow that scenario were good to get to series.
WE DEFINITELY NEED TEOSCAR
Buehler, Ohtani, Glassnow, Yamamoto, Fried, Sasaki,
Bullpen: Kershaw, May, Gonsolin, Miller, Trienen, Banda, Vesia, Braiser, Bazooka, Honeywell, Grove, Sheehan, Knack
Closer: Kopech, Henriquez
Dustin May is going to have a big bounce back year. Gonslin could be specia. And, Sasaki might win ROY.
Hell yeah new Intro fire D-Mac
TEO is priority
I wouldn’t sign jack Flathery honestly every time he played a second look in a post he got rocked badly,
Glasnow, Yamamoto, Fried, Sasaki, Buehler, Kershaw
And don’t forget Othani as well!
Why is Kershaw still in these list? He isn't going to last all year.
Kershaw is fried. He will pitch 5 starts and he's on the DL
@javybeaz3236 he will be drag around like a wounded puppy all year. Like a sympathy charm. Getting paid for something Guggenheim doesn't owe him.
Yup go for these seven
Regardless of the numbers, Teoscar was truly CLUTCH 😅😂
Big hits in Big situations 🎉❤
Ohtani
Glasnow
Yamamoto
Fried
Sasaki
Gonsolin
Yamamoto, Ohtani, and Sasaki
To go by King Ghidorah
VilLAins

Othani, Yamamoto, Sasaki, Glasnow, Snell, Buehler
The gathering with Mookie is pure 🥇
Bring back Teoscar, then
1. Glassnow
2. Yamamoto
3. Burnes
4. Buheler
5. Othani
6. Sasaki
Would love this but what happens when May Gonsolin Sheehan Knack Hurt Stone Ryan Kershaw are healthy.
I think it's Yamamoto Glasnow Ohtani and 2 free agents. I would prefer Sasaki and Buehler. The sixth spot goes to whose healthy out of Kershaw May Gonsolin Hurt Sheehan Knack Wrobleski. It's not as sexy as your 6 but I think it's more realistic.
Bring back Teoscar
6 man, 5 man, 4 man. Whatever man. We got this!
Where are you guys getting Scherzer from? They were literally talking about Cease.
My 6 man rotation: Glasnow, Yamamoto, Ohtani (Gonsolin or Free Agent- the usual suspects, if SO is not ready) Gonsolin and Buehler. Bueher still needs to prove to me he can bring it in the regular season. If we want Crochet we need to trade Lux, Taylor (we pay half his salary) Rushing Outman and Mike Grove.

This is truly a team ❤
Sneal; Yamamoto; Sasaki; Burnes; glassnow; fried. In the bullpen and back up would be Kershaw; walker B; Miller; Gonza; stone, and may
Glasnow, Buehler. Ohtani, Yamamoto, Gonsolin and Sheehan. Kershaw, Wrobleski and Miller to fill potential injury void. Move May to the bullpen and call up the Maytag Man!
I still think Snell is pretty dominant. We should get him.
Walker is back and better watch
The entire pitching staff is a walking IL including the bullpen
I’m a new baseball fan and simply don’t understand why the team is still gonna change (not remain) members just who got to be champs and proof they made the best team
DMAC is getting clips from Reddit. You left my watermark in it LOL
Thank you! LOL
What section of video?
When will Dustin May be back? Dude’s got the best two-seamer in the game
Joel Wolf. (Sasaki's agent.)

November／21／2024
glasnow, yamamoto, ohtani, sasaki, scherzer, buehler/kershaw....
someones bound to go to il at some point, so having a 6 man probably works
Sherzer is a 100 years old
Glasnow Yamamoto Landon Bobby Miller Gonsolin Shohei Kershaw Maybe Walker Fried or Roki?
1) Ohtani 2) Yamamoto 3) Sasaki 4) Glasnow 5) Buehler 6) Kershaw

Not like baseball penalizes teams if key players DNP like NBA does.
The reason I didn't want Juan Soto is because we need some good starting pitching!!!
I'd he happy with a rotation of Glasnow, Ohtani, Sasaki, Buehler, Miller, May(Kershaw post ASB).
Need a good lefty
Teo 4 at 90.
Glas, Yama, Shohei, Beutane, Kersh, Gonsolin
Then we have May, Miller, Knack and money to spend on an arm like Roki AND someone else
Shohei call and Freddie call to similar need to split them up or just leave the Freddie’s in great moments though
Glasnow, Ohtani, Yamamoto, Fried, Sasaki, Burnes.......Kersh to pen
Ohtani. Yamamoto. Sasaki. Glasnow. Stone. Flaherty.
Stone is out for 2025. How many times does this have to be stated? Also, the Dodgers are not bringing Flaherty back. So try again with a more realistic 6.
Looks like Sasaki is not gonna sign with us after all
Resign teo and Walker then worry about the rest… we gotta start taking care of our own and stop paying top dollar for free agents
DMAC, your take on Buehler is spot-on!
as an angel fan who loves Shohei Ohtani both as a human being and as a ball player, I got to tell you you’re gonna build a six men rotation, which is going to damage the other five and then Ohtani’s going to get hurt halfway through the season and go back to being a hitter only.

make him an outfielder, and he will be the best outfielder in the game
Flattery is going to leave he doesn’t show the heart to remain a dodger
Ohtani should not start. He should pitch for 2 or 3 innings or be a closer
The only way Ohtani pitches is if he starts. If he comes in as a starter, he doesn't have to be removed from the lineup when they remove him as a pitcher. If he comes in as a reliever, once he gets removed as a pitcher, he also gets removed as a hitter. So because of the rules, it makes sense to keep him exclusively as a starter.
He will want to pitch..
There is no merit in making him a reliever. If that's the case, it's better to just be the designated hitter.
@@gabe0214there is no reason as to why Ohtani needs to DH on the days he pitches. This is how the Angels overused Ohtani and why he can never finish a complete season as a DH and full time starting pitcher. He never even made it to post season either with the Angels.

This is all about winning more World Series.
Bring back Delino Deshields
The only standard Kershaw has set is how to be an elite regular season starter yet choke in the post season just about every time, lol.
Julio irías
1)Glasnow 2)Yamamoto 3)Fried 4)Buehler 5)Sasaki 6)Gonsolin…. when ready Shohei replace Gonsolin and Kershaw if someone is hurt
How about a 6 start rotation but you split the 6th with 22 & Ferris
7-man (staggered to accomodate everyone): Ohtani, Glasnow, Yamamoto, Burnes, Sasaki, Kershaw, Buehler
That’s just insane. None of our pitchers will be able to compete for CY Young or MVP awards if they’re pitching once every 7 games.
Yes bring Julio Urias back!! He didn’t deserve what he got and he is a fantastic pitcher!!
I think a 5 man rotation is best, with the 5th being Shohei and Kershaw switching. Shohei is to injury prone doing DH and pitching, Kershaw is too old to pitch every time. Keeps both arms as fresh as possible, and doesn’t ruin the other pitchers regular rotation
Sasaki, Buehlr, Fried, Yoshi, Shohei/Kershaw. Trade Glasnow and Lux
Did Stone die? What's going on with him?
Glasnow, Yoshi, Ohtani, Crochet, Roki, Kersh
Miller is done. Sell stock although it will be pennies on the dollar 😅
Is Kenley trying to come back?
My Dream 6-man rotation:
1) Sandy Koufax
2) Don Drysdale
3) Fernando
Valenzuela
4) Don Sutton
5) Tommy John
6) Clayton Kershaw
What do you think this rotation of these legends in their prime would cost today?
FYI - In 1965 the Dodgers won the World Series with Koufax’s record 26-8, 2.04 ERA, 382 K’s & 27 complete games and Drysdale’s record of 23-12, 2.77 ERA, 210 K’s & 20 complete games.

Koufax & Drysdale not only tried to negotiate but we’re asking to be paid $150,000 each. When the team said No, they said they wouldn’t play until they got the salaries they wanted. They didn’t report for Spring training and right before the season started, the Dodgers agreed to increase their salaries to $125,090 for Koufax and $110,000 for Drysdale for the 1966 season (which was Sandy’s last season). Just a point of reference to show how drastically different the contract process and salaries are today compared to back when Koufax & Drysdale were in their prime years.
