Three Players Who Should Be on the Dodgers’ NLDS Roster

Writer Katherine Wacker argues that the Los Angeles Dodgers should include Josue De Paula, Edgardo Henríquez, and Kris Bubic on their National League Division Series roster. The Dodgers are reportedly planning to carry 14 position players and 12 pitchers for the series. Wacker believes adding rookie De Paula would strengthen the bench, while Henríquez and Bubic would provide crucial relief depth.

Injuries have impacted the Dodgers' bullpen plans, with Blake Treinen suffering a shoulder injury and Will Klein hampered by elbow issues. General manager Brandon Gomes indicated Henríquez will make the NLDS roster if he navigates bye-week workouts without setbacks following a recent back injury. Meanwhile, Bubic has posted 4 2/3 scoreless innings across his last five appearances since returning from the injured list.
