Los Angeles Dodgers general manager Brandon Gomes stated Wednesday that the team will play Mookie Betts on the infield in 2025. The 32-year-old played mostly outfield for the Dodgers in 2021 and 2022, but started on the infield in almost half of his games played in 2023. In 2024, the veteran started on the infield in 73 of the 116 (63%) games he played, split between shortstop (61) and second base (12). It is important to note, but he'll be a top tier fantasy producer regardless of position, however, it could come to the detriment of Gavin Lux and others who played the middle infield for the reigning World Series champs in the second half of the season.
Los Angeles Dodgers outfielder Mookie Betts was all over the score sheet on Friday, going 4-for-6 with a homer, a double, three runs scored, and four RBI. Betts led the way for the Dodgers to take a commanding 3-1 series lead with a 10-2 win over the New York Mets in Game 4 of the NLCS. Betts has been solid since shedding his postseason hitless streak that dated back to last year. He is now hitting .278 with a .964 OPS to go along with three homers and 10 RBI in 36 at-bats in these playoffs. Betts and the Dodgers will look to close out the series on Friday when they send Jack Flaherty to the bump.
Los Angeles Dodgers outfielder Mookie Betts delivered a clutch bases-loaded double to put Game 1 of the NLCS out of reach on Sunday. Betts big hit put a cap on a 9-0 onslaught over the New York Mets. He finished the day 1-for-4 with a walk, a double, a run scored, and three RBI. He was somehow the only player on either team to collect an extra-base hit, even though there were 12 hits in total. The 32-year-old has had a solid postseason, hitting two homers, driving in six, and posting a .891 OPS in 22 at-bats. He will look to keep it rolling against Sean Manaea in Game 2 on Monday.
Los Angeles Dodgers outfielder Mookie Betts set the tone for his squad by hitting a solo home run as the second batter of the game in Wednesday's 8-0 win over the Padres, as the Dodgers would go on to hit three home runs in the contest. Betts finished 2-for-5 with two RBI and a run scored, giving him his second straight game with a home run. The 32-year-old did not have a hit in the first two games of the series, but he did have three walks in Game 1 which has led him to a strong .389 OBP through the first four games of the series. Betts and the Dodgers will look to close out the series in Los Angeles on Friday.
Los Angeles Dodgers outfielder/infielder Mookie Betts will take a day to rest in Thursday's series finale against the Milwaukee Brewers at American Family Field. The lefty hitting Jason Heyward will make the start in right field and will hit seventh against Brewers right-hander Tobias Myers. Betts returned from a fractured hand on Monday and played in the first three games of the series in Milwaukee, notching two hits in each game and finishing 6-for-14 with a homer, three RBI and a stolen base. The 31-year-old former MVP and eight-time All-Star has picked up right where he left off earlier this year and is a must-start in fantasy lineups when he's active. Betts will surely be back in the two-hole in the lineup for Friday's series opener against the St. Louis Cardinals at Busch Stadium. Heyward, who is hitting just over the Mendoza Line in 168 at-bats in 2024, will be a low-upside DFS sleeper on Thursday.
