Resetting the 40-man roster for the World Series Champion Los Angeles Dodgers
"Last year's World Series win felt very different than this one. The Blue Jays put up a hell of a fight, but the Dodgers - somehow, some way - scrapped enough to claim their ninth world championship. And because we never rest around here when it comes to rosterbating, it's time to look at where the 40-man rosters stands heading into the offseason."
"Yates was good to start his Dodger tenure before regressing and the injury bug biting him. Hernandez - while not as valuable with the bat during the season and this postseason - should have a lifetime contract with the Dodgers if for nothing else but the vibes. Rojas, a Game 7 hero, said earlier in the season 2026 would be his final one."
The Dodgers secured a ninth World Series title after a hard-fought series against the Blue Jays. Several players reached free agency, including Kershaw retiring and Conforto departing, while Kopech and Yates battled injuries and regression. Hernandez provided clubhouse value despite limited offensive output. Rojas delivered a Game 7 hero moment and indicated 2026 might be his final season, though another return seems possible. The team faces two option decisions, with Muncy’s option appearing easily exercisable and Vesia expected to remain. The roster features a 12-player core under contract and a group of arbitration-eligible players with MLBTR estimates.
