Dodgers Offseason Overhaul Looms

The Dodgers’ front office is staring down a roster teardown after another playoff flameout. Sources say the club’s aging core—Mookie Betts (34), Freddie Freeman (37), and Clayton Kershaw (41, if he returns)—costs $92M next year, with luxury tax penalties pushing the real number north of $120M. The Athletic’s Fabian Ardaya reports the team is open to trading Betts if the return includes a top-100 prospect and salary relief. Don’t bet on a quiet winter in Chavez Ravine.

Yankees’ Dynasty Hangover

Tyler Kepner’s deep dive in The Athletic lays bare the Yankees’ post-dynasty reckoning. The Bronx Bombers haven’t won a World Series since 2023, and their farm system ranks 28th in baseball, per MLB Pipeline. The story’s money quote from an unnamed exec: "We built a museum, not a team." With Aaron Judge (35) and Gerrit Cole (37) entering their decline phases, the Yankees’ window isn’t just closing—it’s got a "Do Not Enter" sign on it.
