After dominating their way to a World Series in 2024, they&#8217;ve jumped out as clear favorites to win the title again in 2025.<\/p>\n<p>Recently, Los Angeles has turned its attention to adding to the bullpen.<\/p>\n<p><img decoding=\"async\" src=\"https:\/\/d.newsweek.com\/en\/full\/2569898\/new-york-yankees-pitcher-tommy-kahnle.jpg?w=1200&amp;f=427be61a921fb80fe76af77d03fd7a70\" alt=\"Dodgers Predicted To Steal $11.5 Million Postseason Hero From Yankees - Newsweek\" \/><\/p>\n<p>First, the Dodgers added star closer Tanner Scott on a massive contract. Now, they&#8217;ve agreed to terms on a deal with closer Kirby Yates. And they&#8217;re likely not done adding to the bullpen.<\/p>\n<p>Joseph Kallen of FanSided recently predicted the Dodgers would pluck Tommy Kahnle from the New York Yankees to finish adding to their loaded bullpen. &#8220;After watching the crosstown Mets pilfer Juan Soto and Clay Holmes from the Yankees, the Dodgers could make a savvy bullpen upgrade by signing Tommy Kahnle,&#8221; Kallen wrote. &#8221;<\/p>\n<p>The 34-year-old reliever was a vital piece of the Yankees&#8217; bullpen in 2024, posting a stellar 2.11 ERA over 50 appearances and demonstrating remarkable consistency. &#8221;<\/p>\n<p>Kahnle&#8217;s 16.1-inning scoreless streak during the season and his dominance in the postseason, including a historic 56 straight changeups in one outing, underscore his reliability under pressure.<\/p>\n<p>With a 2.08 ERA, seven strikeouts, and one save in limited postseason innings, Kahnle would fit seamlessly into the Dodgers&#8217; already elite bullpen.&#8221; Kahnle spent a year with the Dodgers in 2022 and Los Angeles could look to bring him back on a short, affordable deal.<\/p>\n<p>The righty was excellent last season.<\/p>\n<p>He would be another huge addition to the Dodgers&#8217; bullpen. The Yankees will likely pursue him aggressively as well, but it&#8217;s tough to blame anybody for wanting to join the powerhouse Dodgers.<\/p>\n","protected":false},"excerpt":{"rendered":"<p>The Los Angeles Dodgers have done nothing but improve this offseason.
