Why are the Dodgers dialing back their spending this offseason? Tom Verducci explains
According one team source, the crushing exit created some internal soul-searching about the cost of “trying to build a superteam year after year after year.” Feeding the monster with big contracts and trades for the likes of Mookie Betts, Turner, Max Scherzer, Trevor Bauer, A.J. Pollock, Chris Taylor, Kenley Jansen and Freddie Freeman had the added cost of potentially blocking paths of homegrown players.
One, they simply don’t get enough bulk from their starting pitchers, especially with Walker Buehler out—but that in some part is by analytical design. Their starters threw just 16 ⅓ innings in four games against San Diego. Over the past two postseasons, Dodgers starters are 2–5 in 16 games while taking the ball through six innings only twice. Los Angeles has played 32 straight postseason games without letting a starter go through a lineup three full times.
