Although there are just four weeks before the Dodgers take the field on Opening Day against the Giants, there’s still plenty of speculation as to how the club’s 25-man roster might shake out. Currently, there are more than 60 players in big league camp, but that number will soon start to shrink as management starts trimming off some of the fat. With last year’s core group steadily intact, most of the big league roster spots have been cemented, however, there are a few which will likely go right down to the wire.
Theoretically, some pundits would say there are about a dozen or so players on the Dodgers’ roster bubble, yet for all intents and purposes, I’m going to go out on a limb and narrow that number down to six players.
