Dodgers Dynasty

When Roki Sasaki is pitching with this level of confidence, he’s easily one of the most exciting guys to watch in baseball. ⚾️🔥

If he can keep this momentum and rhythm going, he’s going to be absolute key for a deep postseason run come October.

The Dodgers opened the series with a statement win behind another strong outing from Roki Sasaki and a clutch two-run homer from Kyle Tucker. 🔥

Los Angeles takes Game 1 over the Mets and sets the tone for the rest of the series. 💙

SHOHEI ALL THE WAY 😤

The National League Most Valuable Player race is shaping up to be one of the toughest debates in baseball.

On one side is Shohei Ohtani, a player who has already redefined what greatness looks like. Even though the Dodgers have been careful with his pitching workload this season, he's continued to produce at an elite level at the plate while helping Los Angeles remain comfortably atop the NL West. Another MVP would only add to an already legendary résumé.

On the other side is Kyle Schwarber, who is making the strongest MVP push of his career. Fresh off an appearance in this year's Home Run Derby, the Phillies slugger hasn't cooled off one bit. He's continued to launch baseballs into the seats while powering Philadelphia from a disappointing start back into the heart of the postseason race.

Both players have compelling cases.

Ohtani has done it before and continues to set the standard for superstardom, even without taking the mound regularly.

Schwarber, meanwhile, has never won an MVP, but he's proving that this could finally be his breakthrough season with one of the most impactful offensive campaigns in the National League.

The MVP conversation doesn't get much better than this.

Ohtani is adding to an already legendary career. Schwarber is chasing the biggest individual achievement of his life.

Only one can finish on top 👀

Tommy Edman went 3-for-4 with 3 RBI from the #8 spot as the Dodgers took the series against the Phillies on Wednesday night 🙌

We love Max 💙

What’s the most common answer when someone asks, “Who’s your favorite Dodger?”

Shohei Ohtani?

Mookie Betts?

Freddie Freeman?

You can never go wrong with any of those names.

But there’s one player who rarely gets mentioned despite being one of the biggest reasons behind the Dodgers’ sustained success over the past eight seasons: Max Muncy.

Since arriving in Los Angeles in 2018, Muncy has done just about everything the Dodgers have asked of him. He’s played every infield position except shortstop, anchored the middle of the lineup, delivered timely home runs, and consistently come through in the postseason. While the spotlight has shifted from one superstar to another, Muncy has quietly remained one of the franchise’s most dependable players.

With the Dodgers, Muncy is a:

⚾ 3x All-Star
⚾ 3x World Series champion

On Tuesday, Muncy added another milestone to his remarkable Dodgers career. His 228th home run tied Ron Cey for 5th all-time in franchise history and is already the second-most by any Dodger since the club moved to Los Angeles in 1958.

Considering he was released by the Athletics before reviving his career in Los Angeles, Muncy’s journey makes his accomplishments even more impressive. He may never generate the same headlines as Ohtani, Betts, or Freeman, but his impact on this Dodgers dynasty is impossible to ignore.

He may not be the first name fans mention.

But he should always be one of the first names remembered 👊

They say champions simply find ways to win 😎

That certainly was the case on Tuesday night when Mookie Betts and the Dodgers took advantage of shady Phillies baserunning to take the thrilling 2-1 victory 🙌

Emmet Sheehan gave up 6 earned runs as the Dodgers' offense could not keep up with the Phillies in the latter's 10-7 victory on Monday night 😔

A three-game sweep would have been nice, but the Los Angeles bats went silent as the Dodgers lost to the Yankees on Sunday Night Baseball, 2-1.

Los Angeles still has the best record in all of baseball despite the defeat.

Dave Roberts just made it completely clear who runs the show at the top of Los Angeles’ rotation after a masterful performance against New York.

Yoshinobu Yamamoto completely dismantled the opposition to lock down his first career complete game and prove exactly why he holds the ultimate title for the club.

Yoshinobu Yamamoto threw his first career regular-season complete game in the Bronx, continuing his pattern of dominance against the Yankees and his elite poise in high-stakes environments to the Dodgers' benefit. 🌟🔥
