The Los Angeles Dodgers have experienced offensive struggles since July, hitting .231/.302/.385 and ranking 27th in runs scored. The team opted for minor adjustments at the trade deadline, acquiring Alex Call rather than pursuing larger trades. President of baseball operations Andrew Friedman noted that the team's decision-making and quality of at-bats have been below expectations, with players like Betts and Hernández underperforming. The Dodgers are relying on their star players to improve as a means to regain offensive strength rather than seeking substantial changes through trades.
Since the start of July, the Dodgers offense is hitting just .231/.302/.385 as a group, scoring just 116 runs which ranks 27 out of 30.
We value decision making, getting a good pitch to hit, grinding the pitcher. I think that's the DNA of this offense and what we've been over the years.
Obviously, since late June, our offense hasn't performed at a level we expected. I think some of that is we're striking out more.
If that happens, they'll have one of the top offenses in baseball once again.
