The starting rotation was expected to be an area of focus for the Los Angeles Dodgers this offseason due to Hyun-Jin Ryu and Rich Hill officially reaching free agency at the conclusion of the World Series.
The club heavily pursued Gerrit Cole before he signed a record-breaking contract with the New York Yankees, reportedly offering him $300 million over eight years.
After missing out on Cole, L.A. was said to have shifted their focus to signing Madison Bumgarner. Though, he ultimately joined the Arizona Diamondbacks on a five-year contract.

Ryu and Hill have both signed elsewhere as well, leaving the Dodgers with limited options on the free agency front.
