The Los Angeles Dodgers have been dealt another major setback as spring training rolls on, with troubling news surrounding their $330 million superstar following an unfortunate injury to a key utility player. Just as the team was looking to fine-tune its lineup ahead of the 2025 MLB season, this latest blow raises concerns about the Dodgers’ depth and long-term stability.
The bad news started when a versatile Dodgers utility player suffered a freak injury in a recent workout. While initial reports suggested it was a minor setback, the situation has escalated, leaving the coaching staff scrambling for backup options.
However, what has made matters worse for the Dodgers is that their $330 million franchise star—a key figure in their championship aspirations—is now also facing concerns regarding his own health and availability.
While full details remain scarce, early indications suggest that the Dodgers’ high-priced star is dealing with an issue that could impact his Opening Day availability. Given the team’s title ambitions, this development is far from ideal, especially with several key players already battling minor setbacks in spring training.
The Dodgers’ front office and medical staff will now be forced to make critical roster decisions, ensuring they have enough depth to weather any potential long-term absences.
With expectations sky-high, the Dodgers cannot afford a slow start to the season—especially given the level of competition in the National League West. If their $330 million superstar misses time, the pressure will mount on Mookie Betts, Shohei Ohtani, and Freddie Freeman to carry the load until the team is fully healthy.
As fans await further updates, the Dodgers are hoping for good news, but with spring training already presenting challenges, the team may need to explore additional depth options before Opening Day.
