What to Expect From the Rookies
Andrew Friedman characterized 2023 as a “Transition Year” long before the 2023 season started. I do not think that Dodger Fans fully understood what that really meant. In 2022, the Dodgers won 111 games, but in 2023, they “only” won 100 games as they utilized sixteen (count ’em, 16) rookies in their transition year. Here are the rookies who debuted in 2023:
Nick Robertson (traded in the deal for Kike Hernandez)
Gavin Stone
Bobby Miller
James Outman
Miguel Vargas
Michael Busch
Jonny Deluca
Emmet Sheehan
Michael Grove
Ryan Pepiot
Yonny Hernandez
Luke Williams
Tayler Scott
Justin Bruihl
Andre Jackson
Gus Varland
