When Mookie comes back, Rojas plays Shortstop and Mookie plays second baseman.

[@jajacobs2]

I would go after two starters. No guarantees by Kershaw, Yamamoto, Miller, etc. Plus, Glasnow is close to pitching a career high in innings pitched. They need to keep an eye on that.

[@jeremyhopwood5822]

Landon Knack looking like a very young Curt Schilling!! Great mound presence 👏 👌 for his age and level of experience 👏 👍

[@joelfigueroa3389]

Dream line up DH Ohtani-2B Betts-1B Freeman-C Smith-RF Hernandez-CF Robert’s Jr-3B Muncy-LFPages-SS Rojas

[@eddiedub.u5820]

I like Ohtani-Freeman-Betts

[@jeremyhopwood5822]

Lefty, righty, lefty is a better balance 😉 but it's a champagne 🍾 problem to have!

[@michaelbilgen2976]

I have a better one. Mookie at 2nd, Ohtani at DH, Freddie at 1st, Smith catching, Bichette at SS, Teoscar in RF, Nootbaar in CF, Pages in LF, Rojas at 3rd.

[@dianeschroeder3980]

I couldn’t be there for the live interview, but Dmac as always pumps out a very special interview with Jose Mota⚾️⚾️🍀

[@TomStephens92]

He's the best Dodgers guy out there. Love DMAC.

[@sojc7144]

Goatani!!🐐😤🇯🇵💙

[@lunapiena1]

Hilarious....was waiting for the technical issue for the show, esp when they went to Mota, but hey, no issues....Dougie boy pitching a perfecto for a change for Dodger Nation, that is until the interview was over, and I can see Dougies fingers trembling as he fat fingered the stream deck! ROFLMAO!!!!

[@jerseywalcott6408]

GOTANI ALL THE WAY

[@mycol8455]

Goat Tani MVP

[@craigosterberg5045]

Go Dodgers. Goatani

[@socalastarte6727]

I love me some Jose Mota! So glad the Dodgers have picked the Angels pockets getting Dino Ebel, Jose Mota AND Shohei Ohtani.

[@Dodger4ever]

Pitching rotation for playoffs could be Glasnow, Crochet or Flaherty, Yamamota or Stone and Buehler/Kershaw/Miller depending on effectiveness. Relievers Trienan,Hudson,Kelly,Phillips, Vesia Graterol. Long innings relief Yarbrough or Peterson, and Grove. Brasier?

[@bobstudent10]

Love listening to Jose Mota

[@jeremyhopwood5822]

Rafael Devers isn't available, Boston just gave him a massive extension 😳 and the Redsox are in contention.

[@jeremyhopwood5822]

JHey can play ▶️ Center field! He has logged enough innings there!

[@servue403]

Gotani 🎉

[@Dodger4ever]

After trade deadline line up should be; Ohtani, Betts ,Freeman, Smith , T. Hernandez, Robert or Arozarena , Muncy/E. Hernandez, Pages/Heyward, Rojas. DFA Biggio

[@matthewsnyder66]

Jose Mota is such a dynamic and creative analyst of batters. Just really enjoy his presence on Dodgers Nation.

[@jeremyhopwood5822]

Can't wait to see Ohtani pitch and hit in the same game 🙌 That's what makes Ohtani truly unique 👌 I don't like the Narrative of him just being a regular position player!

[@julieklyman4591]

Goat Ohtani 🐐

[@harleyanderson3897]

Crochet makes so much sense.

[@Dodger4ever]

Love the content. Think that Rojas should be ss for rest of year and then look for longer term contract player like Adames or Bishette. That puts Betts at second upon return and Lux trade piece along with Vargas, Knack, and prospects to get either Crochet and Robert or Flaherty and Arozarena. What started as a complicated picture now has clarity thanks to the channel. Do you guys agree?

[@cirecomputers]

Goatani. Hey Dmac didn't you want Giolito last year? 🤔 😂

[@adrian_31flores5]

Goatani!! 🎉🎉🎉💪💪💪

[@hematadopormenos]

Goatani

[@nickmaster2854]

GOATANI

[@daleharris5618]

Pham made Ohtani's ball go out , ball bounced off his glove and over the fence , still looked like 450ft to me !!!!!

[@eddiedub.u5820]

Batting order should go. 1. Ohtani 2. Freeman 3. Betts

[@rocketracoon6694]

GOTANI

[@speculator3gthe238]

Goatani!!

[@DeepfriedBeans4492]

People acting like they have brilliant insight for seeing that recovering players aren't doing as well as they were pre injury. "Miller and buelher are washed, see? They're doing bad compared to previously" yeah, that's called *recovering from an injury*. It's not new, you aren't the first person to notice it, and allowing some people to get back into their groove is not going to make the team crumble to the ground.

[@Truebaconluver]

Goatani

[@Koindewk]

Jose is a very good analyst

[@speculator3gthe238]

Miguel Rojas: Darkhorse NL MVP!! 😤😤 GOATANI!!

[@phillipgomez5441]

Goatani!!!

[@MissRain-xt2vj]

Let's Go Dodgers!!!

[@harleyanderson3897]

Rotator cuff injuries are not like a root canal, it’s serious shoulder problems, and to make it sound like rotator cuff no problem he’ll be back pitching. Come on.

[@daleharris5618]

Dodgers , get a closer , corner outfielder

[@jeremyhopwood5822]

Walker will be fine 🙂 he just needs to become more of a crafty pitcher and be more of a pitcher like Greg Maddux, my all Time FAVORITE 😍 pitcher and arguably the GOAT 🐐 of Starting Pitchers!

[@CarlosRuiz-gs2pz]

What if we had Miggie Ro playing shortstop a few days out off the week and you can have mookie spell him for a couple days

[@dansmouse7393]

Keep Miggy at SS and put Mookie at 2nd. Why is that even a question?

[@_ANG3LXD_]

GOATANI 🐐🐐🐐

[@MaxMontsePuccini]

GOATANI 💪🏽💪🏽

[@jeremyhopwood5822]

My 3rd favorite team 💙 ❤️ in the Seattle Mariners will hold off the Houston Trastros for the Division!!!!!

[@두다리건널목바라기별]

Goatani. Koreatown in LA 90006.

[@elearnprep]

Can we catch ny and the phillies?

[@October2pointO]

Trade mookie, smith and lux to SD for profar and arraez, let the pitchers hit and dh for barnes

[@harleyanderson3897]

Go Go Go !!!!!! And get Crochet

[@Dodger4ever]

Act quickly before Padres get Crochet or Flaherty and we have to face them

[@Truebaconluver]

Exactly we need players who fit the team..max manny tre never fit

[@harleyanderson3897]

Crochet or Jack Flaherty

[@davideneim5068]

GOATani

[@gerald828]

Devers 3B and Rooker LF

[@rasskall-aka-Luke_A.]

Goatani! Keep him at leadoff.

[@RobertCarlson67]

Go atany

[@luisponce7994]

Hilarious Dodgers season , but Padres come with the W Card and 😩😩😩 bububu Dodgers fans cry

[@uthinkuknowme2649]

Padres aren't relevant. Rebuild team. Fighting with the tiny nationals 😂😂😂

[@dbroder1]

Fuck the Padres! They are fun to play against , though. Padres fans are Trolls😂

[@DeepfriedBeans4492]

Lol you didn't make the playoffs *with* soto and the cy young winner, good luck getting a WC without either of them.
