Phillips and Arozarena are now tied.
The
#Dodgers
are getting Max Scherzer and Trea Turner from the Nationals. Theyโre also getting Corey Seager, Mookie Betts and Clayton Kershaw back from injury within the next week or so.
#Dodgers
Julio Urias was asked about the Clayton Kershaw meme the Padres showed after Friday's game. He, of course, didn't want to get too deep into it but he did say in Spanish, "Whoever laughs last, laughs best."
#Dodgers
Mookie Betts on Hanser Alberto: "Having Hanser, man, heโs just like that catalyst in the clubhouse that keeps us all loose, keeps us having fun. Heโs always dancing, always making us smile. Itโs just a very important person to have.โ
Some personal news: After three wonderful years covering the
#Rays
, Iโll be moving to Los Angeles to cover the
#Dodgers
for MLB dot com. I switch over next week and I'm so excited to get started and getting a chance to (virtually) meet everyone.
#Dodgers
Gavin Lux was trying to hold back tears as he talked about his injury. Said the hardest part is knowing he wonโt be able to be on the field with his teammates.
โI think everybody dreams of being the shortstop for the Los Angeles Dodgers,โ Lux said.
#Dodgers
manager Dave Roberts said Shohei Ohtani's teammates booed him when he got back to the dugout after the homer. Ohtani laughed.
Ohtani also turned to Roberts and said, "Now we're tied."
#Dodgers
Trea Turner said he's excited to move back to shortstop so he can continue to prove he's one of the best in the league.
He's also a free agent at the end of the season. He said he would be open to extension talk this spring.
"It's a great place to play," he said.
#Dodgers
are calling up No. 4 prospect Gavin Stone, per source. Heโll be flying to Los Angeles and the plan is for him to start Wednesday against the Phillies.
Stone impressed everyone this spring and has pitched much better his last two starts in AAA after a slow start.
I know most of you don't care, but gotta credit Craig Kimbrel on something. In what is one of the most frustrating seasons of his career, he is always by his locker waiting for us after a bad outing. Trust me, not everyone does that.
#Dodgers
Max Muncy: "It kinda seems like our lineup has been forgotten about with a lot of this stuff that has been happening. Itโs been kinda nice to go out there and prove again that weโre one of the best lineups in baseball, and thereโs no question about that.โ
#Dodgers
Max Muncy says second base is his favorite position and believes itโs the one he plays best. Said adding Freddie Freeman will make the lineup โunbelievable.โ
#Dodgers
Clayton Kershaw on the scoreboard stuff the Padres did last night: โThey probably donโt do it if we win. You donโt like it, pitch better.โ
#Dodgers
and former All-Star closer Alex Reyes are in agreement on a one-year, $1.1 million deal that includes a $3 million club option in 2024, per source. The deal, which is pending physical, is loaded with performance bonuses that could make the deal be worth up to $10 million
#Dodgers
Clayton Kershaw on adding Freeman: "We have a position player lineup of all-stars but that doesn't mean weโre going to win."
Said it comes down to chemistry and culture. "We have to work on that and we will. Weโll be good at it.โ
After six years of battling, my niece passed away this morning. She showed everyone around her what real strength looked like. Life owed her so much more. Being her godfather will always be the biggest honor of my life. Weโll miss her so much.
Danna Isabella Flores. Forever.
#Dodgers
Mookie Betts said the hip injury that bothered him for most of last season is feeling 100 percent going into 2022. He's a full participant in camp.
"I did some good work to get back healthy and I'm ready to go," he said.
Clayton Kershaw said thereโs no secret that his decision came down to Rangers and
#Dodgers
. But came back because of the opportunities to win a World Series.
#Dodgers
Noah Syndergaard said โthereโs no reasonโ he canโt get back to throwing 100 mph. He said he expects to be a โcompletely different pitcherโ than he was last year because he doesnโt feel that was the best version of him.
Craig Kimbrel on joining the
#Dodgers
: โI donโt think I could be any happier. To come over to a team like this that already expects to win and Iโll be asked to come in and do my job. It feels really nice.โ
#Dodgers
Dave Roberts, Bobby Miller, Mookie Betts and Freddie Freeman all made sure to mention how they heard people from the outside not expecting them to win this many games this season.
#Dodgers
Max Scherzer said Clayton Kershaw shared some nice words after the outing.
"Hopefully I'm here and be able to watch his 3,000th strikeout as well," Scherzer said.
Kershaw is at 2653.
People need to start talking about what Miguel Cabrera is about to accomplish. Way too quiet for someone that is about to record his 3,000th hit. Venezuelan legend.
#Rays
announce new ticket plans, which includes a "Ballpark pass", which offers a standing room ticket to all games at Tropicana Field for $36 a month.
#Dodgers
Max Muncy on having Clayton Kershaw back. "Awesome. Heโs one of the best pitchers of all-time and for him to have another year with the Dodgers, I think itโs only fitting. The guy needs to end his career as a Dodger, and hopefully thereโs a couple more years in there."
#Dodgers
