Dodgers President Answers HARD HITTING Questions on Shohei Ohtani, Dodgers Collapse, & More! xitter.cf/i/broadcasts/1nGnRBDnV…
Dodgers President Andrew Friedman responds to people saying LA’s dynasty is over:
“I welcome it… everything we do is for our fans and there’s a lot of noise around us. We don’t really pay much attention to it, it’s a partnership we feel with our fans.”
“People saying we’re on the downside of this run, it’s just more noise.”
Multiple amber alerts were going off during the Dodgers exit interviews for Team President Andrew Friedman and GM Brandon Gomes.
We hope anyone missing has and will be found safely 🙏
Dodgers GM Brandon Gomes reflects on the first season with Kyle Tucker and Edwin Diaz in LA:
“So much of that was betting on the true talent of those guys and while the regular season did not go the way anyone expected, their contributions in the postseason were massive.”
“If that is where we’re looking at, where we end up winning the division with a bye and those guys are performing at their peak in the postseason, that’s a pretty good outcome for us.”
“Really looking forward to next year for those guys.”
Do you want to see Shohei Ohtani on the mound AND at the plate next year?

Dalton Rushing is having surgery on his right elbow today, per @maddie_m_lee, which will keep him out as a catcher for nine months but allow him to hit sooner.
The Dodgers can capitalize on the lockout and fully resolve Rushing's issue rather than continue with non-surgical healing methods.
BREAKING: Dalton Rushing is getting surgery on his right elbow today, per @maddie_m_lee 🚨
Rushing suffered a partially torn UCL this past season and will get a hybrid internal brace procedure.
Hoping for a speedy recovery, Dalton.

Dodgers' Dalton Rushing is undergoing right elbow surgery today, per sources. It's expected to be a hybrid internal brace procedure. The expected timeline to return to catching full time is 9 months, with a return to hitting well before then.
BREAKING: Surgery is not on the table for Shohei Ohtani right now, per Dodgers President Andrew Friedman:
“He’s resting. He got assessed. Had a lot of different stuff, knee was bothering him. An unfortunate game of whack a mole, the bicep area.”

REPORT: Dodgers executive Rocco Baldelli is believed to be a frontrunner for a pair of manager jobs 👀
Dodgers President Andrew Friedman when asked about Japanese star Teruaki Sato:
“It’s hard for us to talk about specific players but we are big fans of the NPB. It’s something we follow closely and watch, there’s a couple of very talented players that are going to come to MLB and we’re going to talk about it.”
Dodgers GM Brandon Gomes speaks on Roki Sasaki’s second year with LA:
“Roki’s year had a ton of positives to take away, his 2nd half was incredible. With the exceptions of a blister, he went wire to wire and was one of our most durable starters•
Andrew Friedman on if Mark Walter’s situation will impact the Dodgers offseason plan and resources:
“It’s been business as usual. We talked to Mark after we lost and he was disappointed but so much of his focus was: What can we do?”
Andrew Friedman says Tarik Skubal has put himself in position to be a free agent & it’s up to the Dodgers to talk with Scott Boras:
“It’s not easy for a guy to get traded in the middle of the season. The way he was able to transition, not just on the field but in the clubhouse, I can’t say enough.”
