The MLB lockout has provided teams with a rare opportunity to hit pause and really sit back to identify needs for the roster. For the Dodgers, the clearest need for 2022 is starting pitching.

Much like it was for most of last season.
As we get closer to the new year and the new season, we continue the search for rotation options via free agency and by trade.
