The Dodgers have an old roster. But that isn’t necessarily a drawback in October

The Los Angeles Dodgers are entering the postseason with the oldest lineup in Major League Baseball, averaging 30.9 years old weighted by at-bats and appearances. Despite concerns over roster age, manager Dave Roberts emphasized the roster's deep experience as the team seeks to secure a third consecutive National League championship title following a 100-win regular season.

Everyday corner infielders Freddie Freeman, 37, and Max Muncy, 36, lead the veteran core alongside 32-year-old Shohei Ohtani and 33-year-old Mookie Betts. Even after trading prospects Zyhir Hope and River Ryan to the Detroit Tigers for Tarik Skubal, the Dodgers' farm system retained the top ranking on MLB Pipeline.
