There are tons of Dodgers who have a lot to prove this 2023 season. There are a lot of new faces who need to live up to their contracts, and a lot of old faces who need to bounce back from their disappointing 2022 campaigns.
You could probably make a case that almost everyone has something to prove, considering this team won just one playoff game last season. However, I don’t think someone like Freddie Freeman really has anything else he needs to prove.
The good news is everyone on the team should be entering the 2023 season with a chip on their shoulder, knowing they have to avenge last year’s defeat.
