No Excuses: It’s Time for a Championship!
Dodger fans complained that the Dodger’s platooned too much last season, so Andrew Friedman got rid of the logjam in the outfield and announced that there would be less platooning. Of course many fans lost their minds because the Dodgers “gave away” Puig, Kemp and Wood and Kyle Farmer is a “Freaking All-Star! They conveniently forget about the two highly rated prospects the Dodgers got back… both Downs and Gray are top prospects.
As it stands right now, the Dodgers intend to platoon Muncy and Freese at 1B and Pederson and Kike or CT3 in LF. Barnes and Martin is not really a platoon at C and Pollock, Bellinger, Turner and whoever plays 2B (Kike or CT3) will play just about every day.
