Will the Los Angeles Dodgers, which won the World Series title, make a significant investment in reinforcing starting pitchers that are necessary for a repeat? It seems that it will recruit both the first and second place pitchers.
MLB.com , the official website of the Major League, mentioned the scramble for Corbin Burns (30), the second-ranked and first-ranked pitcher among all players on the FA market on the 19th (Korea time).
Currently, the two leading teams in the Burns recruitment match are the Baltimore Orioles, an original club, and the Los Angeles Dodgers, who won the World Series.
In response, MLB Network said that even if the Los Angeles Dodgers recruit Rocky Sasaki (23), who is scheduled to come from Japanese professional baseball, they can sign a contract with a super-large FA.
This means that the Los Angeles Dodgers is likely to bring in another super-large FA pitcher besides Sasaki. It will try to sign Burns or Blake Snell (32).
The Los Angeles Dodgers have been suffering from a shortage of starting pitchers throughout this postseason. This is due to injuries to Tyler Glasnow and 토토사이트.
To this end, Jack Flaherty has become a free agent. As a result, the Los Angeles Dodgers are planning to recruit at least two starting pitchers this offseason.
Burns could be a very good alternative. Burns has pitched 194 1/3 innings in 32 games this season, going 15-9 with a 2.92 strikeout and 181 ERA.
Although his performance has fallen in detail compared to 2021, when he won the National League Cy Young Award, he is still a right-handed starter representing the league.
In the last three seasons, he has played 202, 193 2/3 innings and 194 1/3 innings, respectively. A player who can play innings and show excellent ERA at the same time.
However, the price is very high. It is expected to exceed the total amount of $200 million only together with Soto. The contract period is not expected to be short.
If the LA Dodgers recruit Burns and Sasaki at the same time, it will actually bring in the second and third place overall in the FA and the first and second place pitchers at the same time.
Attention is focusing on whether the Los Angeles Dodgers, who have been suffering from a lack of starting pitchers on the postseason stage and have even operated bullpen day, will be able to recruit Burns along with Sasaki.
