He’s making 27 million a year only.

He just turned 27 years old.

He’s on his way to winning a second World Series ring in 2 years in the show.

Yamamoto, greatness.

[Honestly Jake @Honestly_Jake]

@pirates_at448 Its 0.5 vs 1.0 in terms of bWAR, which yes 0.5 isn't a lot, but its also double in the same amount of PA's.

[Honestly Jake @Honestly_Jake]

Shocker, the Dodgers organization made the right decision on who to give the starting job to at the beginning of the season.

It’s almost like they’re insanely competent and know more than us almost always.

[Coz @Gambletani]

Since both guys have 131 PA here’s a comparison on the Dodgers primary 2B so far

Alex Freeland
- 101 WRC+
- 3 HRs 12 RBIs
- .254/.328/.705
- 4 DRS 3 OAA
- 0.7 fWAR

Hyeseong Kim
- 87 WRC+
- 1 HR 11 RBIs
- .259/.323/.651
- -1 DRS -1 OAA
- 0.4 fWAR

Looks like the right call 🤔

[Honestly Jake @Honestly_Jake]

@Sayitliketheym1 After game 6 and game 7 Rojas will be on the roster come playoff time no matter what I think

[Honestly Jake @Honestly_Jake]

Since the beginning of 2025...

Julio Rodriguez: 6.9 fWAR in 222 games
Andy Pages: 6.8 fWAR in 217 Games

This is not a slight to Jrod, this is a compliment to the best CF in the sport right now Andy freaking Pages!

[Honestly Jake @Honestly_Jake]

@Wittman7 Probably a reason not to trade him, his value is lower to teams not competing soonish to now.

[Honestly Jake @Honestly_Jake]

De Paula and Ryan are probably the only guys they won’t consider trading right?

Maybe Sirota?

The Hottest Hitting Prospects in Baseball

Josue De Paula headlines the list after posting an audacious 1.449 OPS over the last two weeks, powered by 13 XBH while walking twice as often as he struck out

@Ralph_MasonJr @dmx_biographer I would have loved to see Tibbs get a shot and same with Zyhir, but they’re definitely gonna choose De Paula over Zyhir and Sirota over Tibbs.

Tibbs feels like a Michael Busch situation except he’s younger.

[Honestly Jake @Honestly_Jake]

@Studman223 Cause he has top 15 pitcher stuff and has 6 years of team control.

He’s not gonna get the return that a 22 year can get, so you may as well use his prime years while we are in win now mode.

[Honestly Jake @Honestly_Jake]

xWROBO of WROBO+ gonna change the sport wow.

[Katie Woo @katiejwoo]

Data and numbers have never been more prevalent in MLB, but for Wrobleski, the model that makes the most sense is the one he created himself. You won’t find the values on Baseball Savant or FanGraphs. This model only exists in Wrobleski’s mind — and that’s why it works.

[Honestly Jake @Honestly_Jake]

Yeah man Dodgers would totally not be good with a salary cap like come on lmao give me a break

[Los Angeles Dodgers @Dodgers]

Ryan Ward with his first Major League career homer!

[Honestly Jake @Honestly_Jake]

It’s like not even close what are you smoking?

[BaldwinIsKing @_CokeHeads]

You can't name a better CF right now in baseball.

[Honestly Jake @Honestly_Jake]

That’s cool… anyway

[Schwarbombs Away @everyb0dyhits]

As we get ready for the Dodgers series & the inevitable Ohtani glazing, feels relevant to point out–

Ohtani is closer to Wheeler in IP than Sánchez, despite Wheeler missing the first month of the year

Wheeler should pass him before the All-Star Break

[Honestly Jake @Honestly_Jake]

Add him to the damn 40 man and play him come on…

[Oklahoma City Comets @OKC_comets]

TWO-HOMER GAME FOR JAMES TIBBS III☄️

He goes deep against Josh Hader and has driven in a career-high six runs tonight!

[Honestly Jake @Honestly_Jake]

The best CF in the sport and it isn’t close!

[Thomas Nestico @TJStats]

WAR Leaders - Center Fielder

[Honestly Jake @Honestly_Jake]

This is the best Farm System the Dodgers have ever had absolutely crazy.

5 guys in the top 25 unheard of.

[The Athletic MLB @TheAthleticMLB]

We’ve already seen a plethora of players from @keithlaw’s preseason top 100 MLB prospect rankings reach or appear in the majors this year, including the top two prospects, five of the top 10, four of the next 10 and 18 from the top 50.

[Honestly Jake @Honestly_Jake]

James Tibbs time to get a runway?

[SportsNet LA @SportsNetLA]

"He tested well. We're gonna get a scan tomorrow. Obviously, it's an IL... Something like that obviously is gonna be a few weeks at the minimum."

Dave Roberts addresses Teoscar Hernández's hamstring injury after the #Dodgers sweep the Rockies, winning 4-1.

[Honestly Jake @Honestly_Jake]

If anyone in this org is being carried to 3 World Series rings it’s Dino Ebel.

He must do other stuff behind the scenes because God damn.

[Honestly Jake @Honestly_Jake]

Fucking tragic man… if he plays another game this season I’ll be thrilled.

[Fabian Ardaya @FabianArdaya]

Dave Roberts said Kiké Hernández’s MRI showed a “significant tear” in his left oblique. Did not have a timeline.

[Honestly Jake @Honestly_Jake]

It makes sense, like it’s not the Dog’s fault it’s a just a little dog… But it’s a risk to players futures that just doesn’t need to be a thing.

[Jack Harris @ByJackHarris]

I'm told the Tulsa Drillers are planning to suspend their bat dog program after Kendall George's freak injury this week

Dodgers still waiting on a final medical opinion with George, per source, but fear he suffered a patellar injury

[Honestly Jake @Honestly_Jake]

We expect greatness and sport breaking level type stuff from Shohei at this point.

What’s even more insane is Andy Pages being on pace for a 10 WAR season… that’s real insanity!

[AT @BaseballWRLD_]

Shohei Ohtani is the 1st player in baseball to reach 4.0 bWAR and is now on pace for 11.8 bWAR

The only seasons since integration higher than that: 2001 Barry Bonds (11.9) and 1967 Carl Yastrzemski (12.5)
