Dodgers seek consecutive championships in 2025 season

The Los Angeles Dodgers finished the 2024 season with a record of 98-64, securing first place in the NL West. Key players leaving include pitchers Walker Buehler and Jack Flaherty, along with second baseman Gavin Lux. New additions to the team include pitchers Blake Snell and Roki Sasaki, and outfielder Michael Conforto. The Dodgers aim to strengthen their pitching rotation, which faced challenges last season despite their World Series win. Top prospect Dalton Rushing is noted for his hitting skills, while Sasaki is expected to make a significant impact with his powerful fastball. The Dodgers seek to become the first team to win back-to-back championships since the Yankees in 2000.
