The Los Angeles Dodgers are loaded with talent, but they can’t seem to avoid the injury bug.

Their team has been destroyed with injuries all season, and it could come back to haunt them in the postseason.

Either way, the Dodgers will have some tough decisions to make in the winter, especially with some of their injury-prone stars.

Bleacher Report’s Tim Kelly recently suggested the Dodgers would cut ties with flamethrower Michael Kopech in free agency this winter, but not for a lack of talent or production.

“The Dodgers will presumably exercise Max Muncy’s $10 million option for 2026, leaving Kopech as their top free agent,” Kelly wrote. “Kopech has a minuscule 0.87 ERA over 32 regular-season appearances with the Dodgers between 2024 and 2025, and he was a key cog in their bullpen a year ago en route to the World Series.

“But if Kopech — who was activated off the injured list Monday — isn’t able to stay healthy for the remainder of this season, it’s fair to wonder what level of interest the Dodgers will have in bringing him back.”

Kopech wasn’t great during the later years with the Chicago White Sox, but after he was traded to the Dodgers, he’s been incredible.

Unfortunately for both parties, he hasn’t been able to stay healthy this year.

The Dodgers are loaded with bullpen talent, so losing the righty in free agency wouldn’t kill them, especially if there’s a team in the league that’s going to be willing to overpay for Kopech.

The Dodgers would be better off adding a more reliable arm to their bullpen instead of trying to reunite with Kopech in the winter.
