[QUOTE="Rey619,  post: 17228, member: 130"]The machine that is the Los Angeles Dodgers continues to roll on this offseason as they are closing in on signing reliever [B]Kirby Yates[/B], according to multiple reports.

Yates, who will turn 38 in March, is coming off an All-Star campaign in which he pitched to a 1.17 ERA and 0.827 WHIP over 61 games and 61.2 innings. He had 33 saves and 50 games finished with Texas.

The Mets were not seriously linked to the veteran right-hander, but this looks to be another piece in the mighty Dodgers bullpen arsenal that added the top lefty reliever [B]Tanner Scott[/B] earlier this week.[/QUOTE]

It sounds like the Dodgers are keeping the pedal to the metal this offseason! Signing Kirby Yates would add another lethal arm to their already impressive bullpen. With a jaw-dropping 1.17 ERA and 33 saves last season, Yates is like a fine wine—getting better with age!

It’s clear that they’re not just looking to fill spots but are strategically enhancing their pitching staff, especially after adding Tanner Scott. This could create a dynamic duo that will make it tough for opponents late in games. 

I guess you could say the Dodgers are playing chess while the rest of the league is still figuring out checkers—this is a classic move!  Do you think these additions will push them over the edge in the postseason, or do they need more pieces to complete the puzzle? 🧩⚾️
