Now, if they want to create a dynasty, they\u2019ll need to find someone to replace their future Hall-of-Famer, Clayton Kershaw.<\/p>\n<p>Fansided\u2019s Christopher Kline believes that replacement can be another future Hall-of-Famer and two-time Cy Young Jacob deGrom, who, if the Dodgers acquired, could literally break the game of baseball.<\/p>\n<p>&nbsp;<\/p>\n<p>\u201cThe Los Angeles Dodgers struggled to field five healthy starters all season and that organization appears to possess a bottomless appetite for star talent. It&#8217;s right to be more than a little skeptical of L.A. actually pulling the trigger on a deal like this, especially if the front office still views R\u014dki Sasaki as a starter. But it&#8217;s always worth tossing the Dodgers into the mix, because with this front office, it is truly a &#8220;never say never&#8221; situation. Cycling between deGrom, Yoshinobu Yamamoto, Blake Snell, Shohei Ohtani and Tyler Glasnow would obviously appeal to fans of the spoiled two-time reigning champs,\u201d Kline wrote.<\/p>\n<p>This past season, deGrom posted a 12-8 record, a 2.97 ERA, 185 Ks, and a 0.921 WHIP over 172 innings pitched. He would be a major upgrade for the Dodgers over Kershaw and would cement the Dodgers as having the best rotation in the sport.<\/p>\n<p>&nbsp;<\/p>\n<p>Combining deGrom with a four-time MVP in Ohtani, a World Series MVP and Cy Young runner-up in Yamamoto, a two-time Cy Young in Snell, and an All-Star in Glasnow would also legitimately be unfair. No team could face L.A. and think they have it easy facing a back-end of the rotation when all their pitchers are top tier.<\/p>\n<p>The Dodgers probably won\u2019t do this due to payroll and the fact that they still view Sasaki as a starter. However, like Kline said, never say never.<\/p>\n<p>&nbsp;<\/p>\n<\/section>\n","protected":false},"excerpt":{"rendered":"<p>This would be entirely unfair if it were to happen.<\/p>\n","protected":false},"author":8,"featured_media":122627,"comment_status":"closed","ping_status":"closed","sticky":false,"template":"","format":"standard","meta":{"footnotes":""},"categories":[4],"tags":[],"class_list":["post-122626","post","type-post","status-publish","format-standard","has-post-thumbnail","hentry","category-mlb"],"yoast_head":"<!-- This site is optimized with the Yoast SEO plugin v23.6 -
