There's little doubt that the Dodgers will be great in the regular season. Let's break down the different ways 2024 could play out for L.A.
58 homers for Ohtani? A title parade -- or another October flameout? What extreme simulations tell us about the 2024 Dodgers, however, exposed a couple of potential concerns: First, Yamamoto has a lot to improve upon to justify that 12-year, $325 million contract; second, the infield defense might be a problem.
Who is Pages, you might ask, and will he actually make an impact this season? Pages is a power-hitting outfielder with good plate discipline, No. 5 among Dodgers' prospects in Kiley McDaniel's rankings and No. 87 overall. He was injured much of 2023 but hit .277/.425/.482 in 34 games , and he hit 26 home runs in Double-A in 2022. He'll start the season at Triple-A but has the ability to hit his way into a regular role -- or at least as a platoon partner with.
I can see the factors there: Miller's strikeout rate was good but not great as a rookie, ranking 56th out of 127 pitchers with at least 100 innings. His overall swing-and-miss rate was just slightly above average, as was his hard-hit rate. The fastball was hittable at times, with batters hitting a combined .258 against his four-seamer and sinker .
In the big picture, the possibility of Outman becoming a 30-homer guy speaks to the depth of the Dodgers' lineup. While the focus is understandably on the big three at the top, the lineup goes much deeper. Outman had a 118 wRC+ last season . "Just didn't have the command and so it's not about the stuff," manager Dave Roberts said."When you're a command guy, which he's been his entire career, his life, and you just misfire, get behind in counts, hit batters, that's just not who he is."from a major league player suggesting Yamamoto's easy delivery, in which he steps and throws, offers little deception.
