Dodgers News: Dave Roberts Isn’t Falling for Dan Patrick’s Tricks This Year

About a year ago, Dodgers manager Dave Roberts went on the Dan Patrick Show and gave an ill-fated guarantee that Los Angeles would win the World Series in 2022. Of course, what gets lost are the words Doc actually said: “But to answer your question, we are winning the World Series if our starting staff stays healthy.”

Walker Buehler was ineffective, made just 12 starts, and ultimately had Tommy John surgery the year after finishing fourth in the Cy Young voting. Tyler Anderson led the team in innings pitched, and he and Julio Urias were the only LA pitchers to throw more than 135 innings.
