The Los Angeles Dodgers face a significant challenge with 14 pitchers currently on the injured list, impacting their pursuit of the 2024 World Series. President of baseball operations Andrew Friedman shared his team’s ongoing struggle to improve pitching depth while recognizing the unpredictability of injuries. Despite efforts during the offseason to bolster their roster, the situation remains dire as multiple key pitchers find themselves sidelined. Friedman admits to the complexities surrounding injuries and emphasizes a commitment to learning from experiences, even while facing setbacks.
The definition of enough depth, I think is a fool's errand. I don't know what enough depth means. I think more is always better with pitching depth.
Everything from my brain is about what we can do, like, how we can solve this. It's like a game of Whack-a-Mole, and things keep popping up.
There's a lot we don't know about injury stuff, and I think it's important not to pretend like we have all the answers.
We're hoping to continue to grow and learn from experiences and just try to make the smartest, best move we can, knowing we're going to make mistakes.
