Concerns Arise About Dodgers‘ Playoff Viability

As the Dodgers prepare for the final 16 games of the regular season, there are some who have concerns on the viability of their chances to repeat as World Series champions once the postseason begins.

MLB Network’s Sean casey listed the Dodgers’ bullpen and offensive production among his top concerns as the playoffs approach.

“I’m really worried about them,” Casey said on MLB Network. “I think the bullpen’s a mess. I don’t think Dave Roberts knows were to go right now. I don’t think the offense is not that great. There’s a lot of things I’m worried about.”

Both the health and the performance of the Dodgers’ bullpen has been a hot topic all season, and one that will only heat up more come October.

Despite spending approximately $107 million on relievers in the offseason, their team bullpen ERA of 4.17 is the 19th-lowest in the major leagues.
