Much has been made of the Dodgers’ exorbitant spending, magnified by a pair of World Series titles for the franchise, as Major League Baseball enters the final year of the current collective bargaining agreement.

The Dodgers open 2026 with a record $381 million payroll, while having over $1 billion in deferrals. As if signing Shohei Ohtani, Teoscar Hernández and Blake Snell, and extending Tyler Glasnow and Will Smith weren’t enough, the club once again opened up its wallet this winter, spending a combined $309 million on four-time All-Star outfielder Kyle Tucker and three-time reliever of the year Edwin Díaz.

Relief pitcher Blake Treinen, one of the longest-tenured players on the Dodgers heading into his seventh season with the team, did not mince words when asked about how outsiders view the organization.

“Perception is built from the media and maybe owners that don’t like what the Dodgers are doing because they would have to do something similar,” Treinen said earlier this week. “And I say to that, ‘Maybe you’re in the wrong business.'”

Treinen thinks more teams should spend the way that the Dodgers do.

“Is it a bad thing that the people who pay our checks and our salaries want a winning product?” Treinen said. “If you’re going to complain about a team willing to do what it takes to win, then I think you’re in the wrong business. And, if you win, to say that you lose money by winning is a wild statement, so I think the perception is more or less if you don’t like what the Dodgers are doing, either take a look in the mirror or look at the people who aren’t putting a product on the field.”

Treinen went on to say that teams don’t necessarily need to be lavish spenders in order to compete, pointing to how the Milwaukee Brewers posted baseball's best record a season ago, with the 22nd-highest payroll. The Brewers bested the Chicago Cubs in the NL Central by five games, despite having a payroll nearly $100 million lower than their rival, and reached the National League Championship Series.

“You don’t always have to spend money to be great, look at the Brewers,” Treinen said. “But to say that you can’t compete — like they did — is a wild thing, because [they had] the best record in baseball last year. Draft and development is a big deal, a lot of teams have leaned into it. So, if you either invest heavily in one or the other, and the Dodgers have done a great job of doing both and that’s why players sign here. If you don’t like it, then maybe find a new business model.”

How the Dodgers operate has garnered some praise — the Padres' Manny Machado and the Phillies' Bryce Harper weighed in on the subject early in spring training — but the front office wasn't really seeking it out.

“We’re not looking externally for validation,” Dodgers general manager Brandon Gomes said earlier this month at Camelback Ranch. “The validation is winning championships and putting out as good a team as we can each and every year, and all we’re trying to do is get a little bit better each and every season, with the goal of winning championships. [Our] coaching staff, our players I think view it as that. Good, bad or indifferent, the external stuff is something we can’t worry about.”

Dodgers manager Dave Roberts, speaking at Cactus League media day earlier this month, said the fixation on the money spent makes people miss the things they do well.

“It does get lost, the things that we do well,” Roberts said. “Scouting and player development, I think we do as well as anybody in baseball … to get superstars to play well every night, to put out a good product every single night, I think we do a good job at that.”

“That’s why the biggest conversation should be that instead of a payroll question,” Roberts added. “Why are we good for baseball? Because our players play the game the right way."

Yoshinobu Yamamoto makes final start before WBC

Six days after Roberts mistakenly wished his ace Yoshinobu Yamamoto luck in the World Baseball Classic, the reigning World Series MVP took the mound one last time before departing for Team Japan against the San Francisco Giants at Scottsdale Stadium on Friday.

Yamamoto threw 52 pitches while completing three innings, giving up five hits and two runs — including a solo home run in the first — while striking out four.

"Overall, I was feeling good physically," Yamamoto said via interpreter Yoshihiro Sonoda after his outing. "Early on, my command was a little off in the first inning. But once I got into the second inning, the feel came back."

Roberts said the Dodgers are on the same page as Team Japan is regarding Yamamoto’s workload in the WBC.

“Yoshinobu knows when he’s going to pitch for Team Japan,” Roberts said before Friday's game. “And we’re aligned as far as our organization, our pitching guys, he’s comfortable with it.”

This story originally appeared in Los Angeles Times.

Just officially a month away from the Atlanta Braves’ opening day, the team’s offense is showing glimpses of high intensity and promise that fans are hoping will carry over into the regular season. Taking the win (15-8) against Boston, they’re ending the first full Spring Training week on a high note and ready to build on their momentum.

The headlines speak for themselves. Not missing a beat, Ronald Acuña Jr., going 2-for-3 in his plate appearance, not only showed consistent quickness as he picked back up on his base-stealing, but he also collected his first homer of the spring that resulted in a grand slam to bring in Michael Harris II, Jonah Heim and Jorge Mateo, extending the Braves’ lead by nine runs (12-3) in the bottom of the third.

A force that continued to make noise in the Braves’ offense was Mike Yastremski, also going 3-for-3 and collecting two homers and three RBI’s of his own. This piece seems to be a smart move for the Braves’ front office, as his offensive prowess could help move the needle for the team as a whole and continue to put runs on the board to extend their campaign.

On the pitching side, Chris Sale is coming off just two innings with electric movement on the mound in his first appearance this past Sunday. In today’s matchup, it seems it wasn’t as strong a performance, only staying out for 2.2 innings; he gave up three earned runs that included two homers; however, he also collected three strikeouts to end the day. Though fans would like to see Sale out longer and more power in his arsenal that he’s displayed just last weekend, it’s still early enough in Spring Training to deem these innings as warmups to allow just enough of a feel against the competition.

Was this Sale’s best start? Not even close, but is it time to panic? Not at all. The impactful lefty is taking each opportunity as it comes and making adjustments when needed. It was after a two-run homer from Boston’s Ceddanne Rafaela that relief pitcher Darius Vine subbed in to take the mound.

One of the arguably most exciting additions to the team, Robert Suárez, also made his spring debut in today’s game. The former Padres’ closer reached 100 mph multiple times on the radar gun and almost struck out the side if not for giving up a single from a Red Sox outfielder (Braiden Ward) before reaching 100.1 mph on a four-seamer to end the inning and his stint on the mound (1 IP/ 1 H/ 0 ER/ 0 BB/ 1 K). Aaron Bummer came in to replace him at the top of the sixth.

Braves country, if there’s one thing to take away from this game, it’s that the offense as a whole would’ve made you beyond proud, and building excitement going into the regular season if they keep up with this momentum. Could this be a sneak peak on what we should expect in exactly one month from today?

Tomorrow, the fun continues as the Braves take on the Orioles with Spencer Strider taking the mound.

The Yankees’ team-wide hitting philosophy in the Aaron Boone Era has been plate discipline and power, and that was certainly on display this afternoon against the Twins. They scored five in the first for the second straight Grapefruit League game after drawing four walks in the frame, while Jasson Domínguez, J.C Escarra, Spencer Jones, Paul DeJong, and Duke Ellis all went yard in the subsequent innings. Luis Gil was wild but effective while Carlos Lagrange turned in three of the most dominant innings you are likely to see this spring as the Yankees steamrolled the Twins, 17-5.

The Yankees wasted no time generating traffic against Twins starter Marco Raya. The righty pitched to a 6.02 ERA in 30 Triple-A appearances in 2025 as he struggled with the free pass, and that was immediately apparent in the top of the first. Ben Rice drew a leadoff walk, Domínguez singled up the middle, and DeJong walked to load the bases with no outs. Escarra then won a ten-pitch battle fouling off multiple breaking balls to draw the Yankees’ third walk in four batters and plate the opening run of the contest. Max Schuemann struck out on three pitches to offer a temporary reprieve, but the command issues came right back with a six-pitch free pass to Jones to walk in the second run of the inning and keep the bases loaded. That spelled the end of the outing for Raya, who departed having thrown 32 pitches and recorded just one out.

That brought George Lombard Jr. to the plate with the bases loaded facing High-A pitcher Nick Trabacchi, and after three straight balls, the Yankees’ top prospect got the green light 3-0 and ripped a two-run single to left, his second two-run hit in as many games. Yanquiel Fernández then drew a full count, and though he struck out, Alex Jackson threw the ball into center field on a steal attempt from Lombard, allowing him to advance to third and Jones to walk home for the fifth run of the frame.

Gil’s command was noticeably dulled relative to his first spring start, but it wasn’t an issue given the way his offense was swinging the bat. He was sailing his four-seamer high and spraying his changeup to both sides of the plate, and even burned the Yankees’ final ABS challenge on a ball above the zone, reaffirming that only the catcher and not the pitcher should be the one initiating ABS challenges. The Twins got themselves on the board on a missile solo shot by Trevor Larnach off a 2-1 fastball down the middle, though Gil did retire the next two batters to limit the damage to one in the first.

After sending nine batters to the plate in the first, the lineup turned over to face Cole Sands in the second and picked things up right where they were left off. Rice lined a leadoff single to center, and Domínguez fouled off several close pitches before he got an elevated 2-2 splitter, which he lasered 111 mph just inside the right-foul pole for a two-run homer to extend their lead, 7-1.

After a soft groundout from DeJong, Escarra demolished a 1-0 fastball for the hardest-hit ball of his career at 109.6 mph, leaving the yard for the Yankees’ second dinger of the inning to make it 8-1.

Gil got himself into a spot of bother in the second, walking Brooks Lee and surrendering an Austin Martin single with one out, but extracted himself without yielding a run. He retired Buxton to open the third and that would spend the end of his outing having given up a run on two hits with a walk and a strikeout on 52 pitches. Two of the biggest issues for Gil when he returned from a four-month lat injury absence in 2025 was reduced fastball velocity and a lack of swing and miss. That persisted in this outing, Gil’s four-seamer averaging 94.7 mph while Gil recorded only four whiffs on 30 swings for just a 13-percent whiff rate.

The Twins pitchers managed to settle things down for a spell, facing the minimum in the third and fourth, but it was only delaying the inevitable. Schuemann drew a walk to leadoff the fifth, bringing the red-hot Jones to the plate. Sporting his new Ohtani-esque toe tap in place of a leg kick, Jones demolished his third home run this spring, a two-run shot off the batter’s eye in center that traveled 427 feet.

Lombard followed with a walk and advanced to third on a ground ball single from Fernández, allowing him to jog home on Domínguez single — Jasson’s third RBI of the contest. Up stepped DeJong, and the one-time Cardinals All-Star got all of a hanging 0-1 curveball for his first home run of the spring, a two run shot to left to make it 14-1.

This initiated the wholesale changes to the lineup all of the starting nine except Marco Luciano subbed out, but that didn’t mean an end to the fireworks. Speed specialist Ellis came to bat with one out in the sixth and got in on the fun, lining a solo shot to right-center off a cement mixer 1-0 sweeper from reliever Andrew Bash.

In the meantime, the Yankees’ second-ranked pitching prospect Carlos Lagrange made his second Grapefruit League appearance and looked pretty much untouchable for three innings. He surrendered just a lone single while striking out four on 41 pitches. His fastball averaged 100.1 mph and topped out at 102.1, garnering six whiffs on 14 swings for a gaudy 43-percent whiff rate. He also exhibited impressive command of the cutter, inducing a further pair of whiffs as hitters were way out in front expecting the heater.

Minnesota tallied a pair of consolation runs in the eighth on a two-run homer from former Baby Bomber Eric Wagaman off bullpen contender Brent Headrick. The Yankees subs responded with a pair of their own in the ninth, Tyler Hardman and Kenedy Corona getting things started with a hit-by-pitch and walk to put a pair on with no outs. Twins reliever Kyle Bischoff struck out a pair to get within an out of snuffing out the threat, but Kaeden Kent — son of now-Hall of Famer Jeff Kent — clubbed a two-run double to make it two touchdowns and a field goal for the Yankees. Lefty reliever Geoffrey Gilbert prolonged things unnecessarily at the very end, surrendering a pair of runs on two singles, a double, and a sac fly, but he eventually recorded the final out of this 17-5 rout.

We’ll see if the Yankees offense can keep it rolling tomorrow after noon against the Blue Jays. Paul Blackburn takes the mound as the Yankees return home to GMS, facing off against José Berríos. First pitch is scheduled for 1:05 pm ET with the broadcast returning to YES.

Jays 5 Rays 6

The Jays are now 1-5 with a tie, this spring.

It wasn’t a good day for Eric Lauer. He went 1.2, allowed 3 hits, 3 earned, hit a batter, and gave up 3 earned. It is early, but if he wants a starting rotation spot, he should give up less runs than innings.

Other pitchers:

• Connor Larkin: Gave up 1 hit, 1 walk before getting the last out of the second inning. He had a
• Braydon Fisher: 2 hits, 1 earned on a home run, 1 strikeout in his inning.
• Mason Fluharty: 4 hits, 1 earned, 1 k in his inning.
• CJ Van Eyk: 3 innings, 1 hit, 2 walks 2 strikeouts. The star pitcher of the day.
• Jorge Alcala: 1 inning, 1 hit, 1 earned.

Hitters, starters:

I’d like to see the batters doing better.

Tomorrow, the Jays are doing the split squad thing. Some are traveling to Tampa to play the Yankees, with Jose Berrios starting. Some are staying in Dunedin, with Dylan Cease starting. The later will be on Sportsnet. The former is on YES, and we’ll be able to watch MLB TV.

The Mets decimated the Cardinals in a victory on the road in Jupiter this afternoon, and Freddy Peralta started his Mets tenure about as good as one would have hoped.

• Freddy Peralta threw 29 pitches in three perfect innings, collecting three strikeouts in his appearance.
• Devin Williams made his first appearance as well, going one inning and giving up one hit. That hit was a solo home run to top Cardinals prospect JJ Wetherholt.
• Justin Hagenman went three innings, allowing two runs on four hits, striking out four.
• Huascar Brazobán and Brett Banks each threw a scoreless inning to finish the game.
• MJ Melendez was the offensive star of the game, going 2-for-3, both hits being home runs and driving in four runs.
• AJ Ewing had another great appearance, going 2-for-2 with a home run, two RBI and a walk.
• Cristian Pache went 3-for-3 with a double, and he scored twice.
• Juan Soto went 1-for-3, hitting a double off Quinn Matthews.
• Austin Barnes went 1-for-3, hitting a two-run double.
• Kevin Parada went 1-for-1, driving in two runs and walking twice.

The Mets will be back in action tomorrow afternoon at 1:10 PM EST, taking on the Washington Nationals back at Clover Park. Tobias Myers will make his second appearance of the spring, and his first start. You can actually watch that game on television, as it’s being broadcast on SNY.

Recap disclaimer – this may be more a random observations list than a specific blow-by-blow of the game. Spring training results are unimportant, right? It’s the process, after all.

Game Recap

Juan Soto and the Mets take the Cardinals by an 14-3 score. Cardinals use 11 pitchers to cover 9 innings, giving up 3 HR along the way, coupled with 9 walks. Offensively, youngsters Wetherholt (HR), Church, Davis and Saggese (all doubles) contributed extra base hits.

Pre-Game Notes

From my wanderings around the back fields, looking at schedules, etc.

• Kind of a down day this morning at camp. Things will pick up later. I think this is day#3 for MiLB players, and there are lots of indoor meetings … As I write this, they are having an all-hands meeting that includes how to handle oneself on social media.
• MiLB pitchers on the rehab list are Moran, Santos, King, Dutkanych, Clarke
• Planning to get to sim game thrown by P. Graham along with live BP by Crossland and E. Young. Also of note, Dustin May is scheduled up for a sim game with Ivan catching. B. Holiday throws a rehab BP, so he is progressing.
• Urias makes his first game appearance today at second base. JJW at DH. Saggese indeed starts in CF. Q. Mathews to start, followed by Pushard and others. Rodriguez part of the group of MLB game backups.
• I try not to sweat the little details at the edge of the roster so early in camp, but I am rubbing my chin wondering who the backup 1B is really going to be, especially if Burly got hurt.

The Manager’s Corner (pre-game)

• May is on a personalized plan to ramp up to Opening Day. With some guidance from Cardinals on suggestions for prepping to go pole-to-pole.
• Talked a bit about Sags in OF a bit. What they look for, even if no balls are hit in his direction.

Game Observations

• Rough start in the first inning for Mathews. HBP, walks and general command issues lead to an early run. The stuff appears sharp but the command a bit flighty. It is still February, so no worries. The second inning was better, although the pitch count got a little high and Bedell needed to contribute a pitch to end the inning. Sharp third inning to finish his outing.
• Pushard relieves, greeted by a solo HR. Mets up 2-0. Church brings back a potential second HR in RF with those tricky wind currents out of the SE helping knock it down.
• Peralta looks sharp for the Mets (shocking, I know!). Followed by Devin Williams in the 4th. Wetherholt greets him with a first pitch HR to RF. The ends the shutout AND the no-hitter. A no doubter at 422 Ft. into the breeze.
• Pushard, Bruihl and Davila picked up the middle innings, with likewise middling results. Fernandez was very workmanlike.
• I though Soriano was sharp, but some serious infield hijinks created an unearned run. I believe each of the five players on the infield contributed to the misadventures. Tough inning. Learning points all around.
• Got to see a seventh inning rotation of batters that included Baez, Rodriguez and Chase. Got to wondering if we might see that again soon. They made some noise. There is some thump there.
• Hence got in 27 pitches. Some hard-hit balls resulted in a not great line of 3 R, 1 BB, 1 K, 1 HR. It’s good to see him pitching (healthy). Velo up around 96, but the common spring phenomenon of flighty command complicated his inning.
• Love finishes the ninth after Hales hits his limit.

The Manager’s corner (post-game)

• He liked JJWs approach. 422’ to CF off Williams cutter. Has good power, but not at the expense everything else (contact, all fields. etc.).
• Likes the flexibility Urias brings. Does little things well.
• On Dustin May, a plus. Good life to the pitches. In a good spot. Needs to figure out what the progression for him is.

4pm CT on D1Baseball (and they’re trying to get $30 for it)

After a 6 game stretch of beating up on EMU, Marist, and Evansville, the Diamond Dores travel to the I Like Ike Live Like Lou Las Vegas College Classic (I have no idea what this refers to and I refuse to look it up), where yet another bullshit one time use streamer (this time something called D1 Baseball) is trying to take money ($30?!?!) from you after you already pay over $300 to ESPN to watch these damned regular season baseball games. Must be nice to live like Lou, but for the rest of us, these damned streaming sports tariffs are nickel and dime-ing (well, more $20 and $10-ing) us into the poor house.

At least FloSports pretends to do something for the rest of the month or year that you’ve purchased (though that something is basically college wrestling practices). This one? Just for this mini-tourney. I’ve had enough. You will get my $30 when you pry it from my cold, dead hands.

…anyway, though I highly suspect very few if not none of you will see any of these games, the Diamond Dores are about to face a bit of a test, as they go against UC Irvine Friday, Arizona Saturday, and Phil Knight’s own Faber College Sunday.

Knowledge is good.

While all three teams we will face are currently unranked, they are all traditionally good baseball teams. Will we continue mashing the ball against tougher competition, or will we return to the hot-and-cold play from the first series of the year? I’d like to tell you I’ll be able to see the answer, but I’ll likely just be checking in on the stat tracker and/or listening to the radio.

On the Mound

Friday @ 4:00pm on Yet Another Bullshit Single Use Streamer

Vanderbilt #39 Jr. RHP Connor “The Spice” Fennell (1-0; 3.48 ERA)

vs. UC Irvine #28 Jr. RHP Trevor “Why Don’t You Take a Seat Over There?” Hansen (2-0; 1.88 ERA)

The Lineup

*Will update when posted (unless, you know, I’m driving home).

See you in the comments, I guess.

The Michigan Wolverines have faced a gauntlet so far this season in two weekend tournaments, and they have fared well. Michigan is 4-3, with three of those four wins coming against ranked teams. The Wolverines also won their opening weekend tournament in Surprise, Arizona, which was, well…a surprise.

Michigan wasn’t predicted to be great this year, but the results of the first two weekends are promising. The three losses have come to No. 19 Oregon State (in extra innings; the Wolverines beat the Beavers in their other matchup), No. 21 Florida State and Kansas State.

The Wolverines will once again be somewhere warm this weekend, as they will head to California to take on San Diego in a three-game series. Let’s take a closer look at this weekend’s matchup.

San Diego this season vs. last season

San Diego was one of the best teams in the WCC last year. The Toreros finished 28-30 overall record and a 19-5 conference record. They made it all the way to the WCC Championship with a spot in the NCAA Tournament on the line, but St. Mary’s ended up earning the auto bid.

The Toreros are off to a hot start in 2026, as they are 6-1 with wins against Charlotte (twice), Long Beach State, Utah, Creighton and San Diego State. The lone loss came against Charlotte.

San Diego’s record is impressive, but it has not been tested like Michigan has. The Toreros have zero ranked wins to Michigan’s three, so the difficult schedule the Wolverines started with could end up giving them an advantage.

Players to watch

Offensively, San Diego has three players who are hitting .300 or better so far, and all three have started all seven games. Outfielder Aden Howard is leading the way for the Toreros so far, as he is hitting .345 to start the year. He is 10-of-29 with one double, three triples, one home run and seven RBIs.

Catcher Jayden Lobliner is also having a hot start to the season, as he is 9-of-3o (.300) so far. He also has some pop in his bat, as three of his nine hits have been home runs. Lobliner can turn a mistake into runs very quickly. He has 10 RBIs on the year. Lastly, infielder Gabe Springer is hitting .300 as well. He has three doubles, one triple, one home run and six RBIs to start the season.

It’s hard to know what a pitching rotation will look like for a weekend series in college baseball, especially this early in the season. But Michigan will likely face Kyle Bade, Diego Gutierrez and Drake Frize, three guys that all have two starts under their belts this season.

Bade has been the best of them so far, tossing nine innings pitched and giving up three earned runs. Gutierrez has been solid as well, giving up four earned runs in 10 innings pitched. Frize has struggled a bit, as he has given up seven earned runs in nine innings pitched.

Overall, this will be another tough test for Michigan, but this is a winnable series. Programs out west are always solid, but the Wolverines have already notched a few impressive wins this season.

Series schedule

• Game 1: Friday 2/27 @ 9 p.m. ET, ESPN+
• Game 2: Saturday 2/28 @ 9 p.m. ET, ESPN+
• Game 3: Sunday 3/1 @ 4 p.m. ET, ESPN+

Looking ahead

Michigan will be out in California for a while, as the Wolverines have another series next weekend against Pepperdine. In between Pepperdine and San Diego, however, Michigan will have a mid-week clash against Cal State Northridge on Tuesday. The Matadors are 5-3 to begin the year with wins against Seattle (three times), St. Mary’s and Cal Baptist.

Today the Texas Rangers are back to playing only one spring training game. That game will be played from Camelback Ranch in Glendale, AZ where the Rangers will take on the Chicago White Sox.

LHP MacKenzie Gore is set to take the mound for Texas opposite RHP Erick Fedde for Chicago.

Chicago has a radio and video feed for this one, otherwise you’ll have to follow along on Gameday. First pitch from Camelback Ranch is scheduled for 2:05 pm CT.

Go Rangers!
