"Some players, like Teoscar Hernandez, Miguel Rojas and Ohtani, were shown in action, using a slowed-down swing to create the best images. Others, like Max Muncy and Kiké Hernández, used bats more like a prop. One thing in common most players had, though, was a straight face - with one major exception. Mookie Betts let the camera see his pearly whites."
"But perhaps they're already focused on this year, when they're trying to make history as the first time to three-peat in nearly three decades. Not since the New York Yankees of 1998 to 2000 has a team won back-to-back-to-back World Series. With championships already in 2020, 2024 and 2025, this team is already a dynasty, but adding another ring in 2026 would truly set these Dodgers apart, making them perhaps one of the best teams in baseball history."
Los Angeles held media picture day at spring training in Glendale, Arizona, with stars like Shohei Ohtani, Kiké Hernández and Yoshinobu Yamamoto posing for television-ready images. Some players, including Teoscar Hernandez, Miguel Rojas and Ohtani, were photographed in slowed-down swings while others, such as Max Muncy and Kiké Hernández, treated bats as props. Most players maintained straight faces; Mookie Betts smiled broadly. The team enters the season after back-to-back World Series titles and will attempt a rare three-peat, which has not been achieved since the 1998–2000 Yankees. Rival executives have framed the Dodgers as the team to beat, and competitors have signaled willingness to match spending.
