Dodger Stadium has been undergoing major renovations this offseason, causing challenges for the Dodgers as players sought new practice locations. Stars like Shohei Ohtani and Mookie Betts were seen practicing at local high schools instead. Dodgers President of Baseball Operations Andrew Friedman spoke about the added difficulties of this winter without their usual resources. However, the construction is nearing completion, with the stadium set to be ready for the Freeway Series on March 23. Final details await, but overall, the team is optimistic about the upgrades.
"It's been a huge advantage for us in years past, having our Minor League players here and big league players train here, our chefs making breakfast and lunch, obviously the weather being perfect," Friedman said.
"It's been a challenge this winter. Making the most of it. We feel like it will be worth it in the end, but certainly a challenging offseason."
"The remodeling project is in its final stages... The seats are ready for fans, and the field has been replaced for players."
