Dodgers 2026: Shocking Predictions That Could Rewrite the Team’s Future Revealed by True Blue LA Staff

Season outlook

Eric Stephen: This is probably the best Dodgers lineup of my lifetime, with plenty of quality depth. The addition of Kyle Tucker puts them over the top. They have depth on the pitching side too, even with the inevitable handful of arms on the injured list at any given time.

Andy Lane Chapman: Last season everyone wanted to crown them 120-game winners. I think they’ll do slightly better than last year overall, and will still have that head-scratching stretch where nothing goes right.

Michael Elizondo: This team could go 116-46 and romp to 11-0 in the postseason as the top seed. But that outcome would require both everything going right and the naysayers being right about the competitive balance of the sport. When this team coasted last year, it was rough to watch – until October. Assuming good health, I expect more of the same. The Dodgers will romp in October beating the Seattle Mariners in five largely uncompetitive games to the enraged howls of the league.

Jacob Macofsky: Fresh off of two consecutive World Series championships, the Dodgers ensured they had no weaknesses by acquiring high end talent at positions of need. In a division where the Dodgers continue to remain supreme, the other three playoff hopeful teams know that it’s a race for a Wild Card spot. The Dodgers know what the ultimate goal is, so their priority doesn’t concern how the fare in the regular season, although I do see them hitting the century-mark in wins for the first time since 2023.
