Dodgers’ loaded farm system is about to become a roster headache

Dylan Hernandez argues that the Los Angeles Dodgers face an impending roster crunch due to an influx of elite outfield prospects into a crowded major-league lineup. Top minor leaguers Josue De Paula, Eduardo Quintero, Mike Sirota, Charles Davalan, and James Tibbs III are advancing quickly, yet the Dodgers currently have established starters Teoscar Hernández, Kyle Tucker, and Andy Pages under team control.

Hernandez suggests trading Hernández entering his final contract year could open a spot, though other prospects would still require creative positioning. Dodgers general manager Brandon Gomes and president of baseball operations Andrew Friedman expressed confidence in defensive versatility and natural roster attrition to resolve the logjam.
