On Saturday, the Dodgers signed designated hitter JD Martinez, which made it seem less likely that Justin Turner would be back. On Sunday, that sad fact became official as Turner signed with the Red Sox on a two-year deal. Jeff is here to talk about the heartbreaking reality that the captain will be wearing a different uniform next season. We also talk about Martinez and the fact that he's probably an offensive upgrade over Turner, what it might mean for guys like Will Smith that the DH Day Off isn't an option anymore, and other implications of the Martinez signing. And finally, we talk about the Dodgers signing Bradley Zimmer to a minor-league deal, Dansby Swanson signing with the Cubs, and a few other odds and ends.

Los Angeles Dodgers capture back-to-back World Series titles with dramatic Game 7 extra-innings victory in Toronto. Can anyone stop this dynasty?

Travis Rodgers breaks down the Dodgers' historic championship run, becoming the first team to repeat since 2000 and the first National League squad in 50 years. The analysis covers Yoshinobu Yamamoto's legendary three-game heroics, Miguel Rojas's unlikely game-tying home run, and Will Smith's clutch 11th-inning blast that sealed the title. Despite never hitting their stride offensively, the Dodgers went 13-4 in the playoffs through sheer resiliency and championship experience.

Key topics include Dave Roberts' tactical decisions, the bizarre journey from Japan to Canada, and how role players like Kiki Hernandez stepped up when stars struggled. Rogers examines why this unconventional championship path makes the victory even more remarkable.

Discover how the Dodgers won it all without playing their best baseball and what this means for their dynasty aspirations. All that and more on today’s episode of Locked On Dodgers!
