Heading into the weekend with a handful of Dodgers stories, news, and notes.
Jay Jaffe dug into the data on the Dodgers’ recent title run in various forms at FanGraphs, and concluded “this Dodgers dynasty can stand with the best of the expansion era.”
Bradley Woodrum, who was the coordinator of baseball information services in the Marlins front office for several years, wrote about Miguel Rojas at Baseball Prospectus:
This World Series ninth inning may well be the coda event for Miggy’s career, the swansong highlight he’ll have memorialized in an oil painting above the fireplace. It’s the unexpected reward at the end of an unexpected journey. These same Dodgers took a chance on Rojas over a decade earlier, extending his career with a minor league deal, a possibly career-saving deal.
