True, I wouldn't mind another year of Lux. BUT, if they can trade for more international "money" to get Roki it might be worth trading him! And resigning Kike for another position player in case someone goes down during the season.
Again, I agree with DMAC's take on Lux. We, as fans, really do undervalue his worth. But personally, I think he might need a change of scenery for him to click. And that might not be with the Dodgers, unfortunately. Between the 2 reported teams that are interested in Lux, I'd take the Mariners over the Yankees for 2 obvious reasons, 1.) Why help the Yankees? Fr and 2.) Mariners have more to offer that we need and we'll take over what the Yankees can offer. From players to prospects. Edman in the infield (esp. at SS) is better than him being in CF (even if can field). I think, as well as many others, prefer to move another certain player that Taylors to more than 1 position and can make space to sign say another Hernandez. Moving to the Kim Hye Seong signing, DMAC... I think this signing is part of a bigger plan that'll come to fruit in about 3-4 years. The fact that he's so versatile is what is magical. And yes, I dont think he's gonna shine right away but the little things that most people dont give some of these players credit for, can and will be a difference maker. But back to the bigger plan, Kim Do Yeong. If, for whatever reason, we dont extend Muncy after picking up his club option for the '26 season, we wait (or sign/trade short term) 1 maybe 2 years... Watch.
If Luis Arraez able to play multiple positions I bet the Dodgers will among the top teams that willing to pursue him. Being the best at bat, and you mix it with Othani, Betts, Freddie, Teoscar, smith, Kim and Edman! Wow back to back champs 99.999999%🏆
An Anthony Volpe/Gavin Lux middle infield tandem could be an extremely effective pairing both on defense and offense in the Bronx for years. If the Dodgers are going to make their WS rivals stronger, they better be getting some absolute young diamond studs in return. Us fans have been waiting for Lux to meet his potential for years. It would be disappointing to have it come with another team. EDIT - Wrote too soon: Looks like we’ll have to watch if Lux turns a corner from afar in Cincinnati.
Name 1 team that would want to trade for Taylor and his 13 million salary. We would have to pay most of his salary and give a decent prospect to get rid of him
We need an addition to the intro: " ...... Chris Taylor.......DFA'd , finally" !!! In-between the Freddie walk off granny and " .... Shoei, ntroducing the 50-50 club " . Lol Getting that bum off the damn roster would be as exciting as getting Roki.
There is no need to get a designated closer type pitcher. It’s never worked in recent year for the Dodgers. Jansen might have caused the Dodgers other WS championships. Just takes up another roster spot. Closer by committee is better. With Ohtani, he may be able to close out games and the same for Phillips, Treinen and Kopech. That’s 4 guys. More than enough.
My wish for the New Year is that DMac only uses 1 introduction.
😂😂
Yeah, maybe have an outro instead of his usual cur off goodbye at the end. "... Believe blue bleed bl.."
😅
I'm weak 😂
Breaking News! Lux to the Reds!!!!
7 min into this and Passan announces Lux to the Reds 😢
Can we take a minute to talk about Padres ownership suing each other?? 😂😂😂. The Dodgers planted a pipe bomb in that organization.
Why ????? Forget them .. they’re irrelevant
Don’t sleep on Lux being able to play good SS. His issues in spring training was throwing but you can’t throw without your legs being right

Hits different knowing that Lux got traded to the Reds, on Dodgers I’d be so SAD if I had to go from LA to Cincinnati Ohio 😢
2 mins worth of intros is NASTY work
Get over it it’s not that serious

Let's goo!!! That's right antonio brewers
Could this be just a first part of more to come. Freeing up a roster spot for another player.

Why put Roki in the title if you arent going to talk about him this episode?
It will be interesting to see what Conforto does. He hit 20 HRs playing half his games at Oracle
Listening to this after the live, only to get the breaking news about Lux.
Keep in mind that signing Tanner Scott is 80m + 110%…really expensive
Need to get rid of Gavin lux and ct3 to make room on the roster for a closer and Kiké
If Lux brings back a starter, like Woo, I'm all for it. Lux becomes excess in light of the signing of Kim.
Traded to Cincinnati reds 😮
if lux ends up with the yankees, then lux can end the game striking out just like another former dodger alex verdugo
Bring back Enrique keke
I want to know how they Trade Lux and not include CT3. Makes no sense
Name 1 team that would want to trade for Taylor and his 13 million salary. We would have to pay most of his salary and give a decent prospect to get rid of him
They need to unload Taylor.
He’s going to Cincy
Gavin Lux just got traded to the Reds
I would to see afriedman really go after tanner scott and get kiki back
The Dinger Daddys 😂

Get rid of Taylor
Dodgers should trade for Luis Arraez! I think he can play at 3rd base.
We fleeced the Reds
There are no roster spots for Justin Turner…this is going to be an issue…we just DFA’d Cartaya
Michael kay said the dodgers were classeless for auctioning off judges dropped ball in the ws.
If we trade Gavin to Seattle, I want Andres Munoz in return
Kim‘s number last year was not impressive
My wish for the New Year is to trade for Mike Trout.
Mike the trout is like a fish out of water. No thanks keep him in angels uni fits perfectly with his buddy rendon
What translates is speed and range. Kim will be a good fit.
One can only hope he gets traded. Take Taylor free of charge too PLEASE!!!!!!🙏🏼
Is Gavin lux out of lucks?
I don’t want to trade Lux.
We just traded lux to the reds…
What team is dumb enough to take ct3 off our hands? Maybe the padres!
😭😭😭 noooooo I love gavin lux
Yes, Lux will be traded. Probably to the Reds for a bucket of balls and a draft pick!
The Reds basically got Gavin Lux for nothing, which is exactly his value. Good riddance.
Nothing? Pick 37 in the draft is a great pick up and also freed up a spot on the 40 man.
Did someone say Muncy strikes out a lot? 🤡
