"Sirota made an immediate impact in his first professional season with the Dodgers, hitting .333/.452/.616 with 16 doubles, 13 home runs, and 54 RBI in 59 games between Single-A Rancho Cucamonga and High-A Great Lakes. Sirota displayed plus-bat speed, quality bat-to-ball skills, a patient approach at the plate and plus speed. He is projected to stay in center field for the long-term with an above-average arm and the ability to make reads off the bat well."
"The Dodgers originally selected Sirota in the 16th round of the 2021 MLB Draft, but he did not sign with the team. Sirota instead went to college and was drafted by the Reds in the third round three years later. The Dodgers clearly have high hopes for Sirota after making two attempts to acquire him, and after being successful on their second try, they are so far looking to be correct."
The Dodgers acquired Mike Sirota and a Competitive Balance Pick A in the 2025 MLB Draft when they traded Gavin Lux to the Reds. Sirota was originally selected in the 16th round in 2021, elected to attend college, and was later taken in the third round by Cincinnati in 2024. Los Angeles pursued him through two attempts despite a junior-season slump that lowered his draft position. He hit .333/.452/.616 with 16 doubles, 13 homers and 54 RBI across Single-A and High-A, showing bat-to-ball skills, plate patience, plus speed and center-field defensive potential before a July knee injury ended his season.
