On this episode of the Three-Inning Save podcast, the Dodgers settled all salary arbitration cases and added some infield depth to the 40-man roster.

Andy Ibáñez signed a one-year deal and figures to see time at second and third base, adding some insurance with Tommy Edman coming off ankle surgery and Max Muncy playing only 173 total games over the last two seasons. 

Four players eligible for arbitration signed one-year deals with the Dodgers before Thursday’s salary exchange date. Brusdar Graterol signed for $2.8 million after missing all of the 2025 season rehabbing from shoulder surgery, left-hander Anthony Banda signed for $1.625 million, outfielder Alex Call signed for $1.6 million, and right-hander Brock Stewart signed for $1.3 million.

The Dodgers also claimed utility man Ryan Fitzgerald off waivers from the Twins. We look at the position-player side of the 40-man roster and what might be left this offseason.

On this episode of the Three-Inning Save podcast, we usher in the official start of the MLB offseason.

Seven Dodgers became free agents on November 2, the morning after the World Series, including Kiké Hernández, Miguel Rojas, and a retiring Clayton Kershaw.

Max Muncy ($10 million) and Alex Vesia ($3.65 million) had their club options exercised by the Dodgers. Tony Gonsolin was designated for assignment as he recovers from his second major elbow surgery.

First baseman/outfielder Ryan Ward and left-handed pitcher Robinson Ortiz were added to the 40-man roster before they could become minor league free agents. Justin Dean, the late-inning defensive specialist who played 13 postseason games for the Dodgers but did not bat, was claimed off waivers by the Giants. Michael Grove, who missed all of 2025 after shoulder surgery, was also sent outright to the minors, off the 40-man roster.

On this episode of the Three-Inning Save podcast, the Dodgers won their second straight World Series with an incredible Game 7 comeback, which took 11 innings to beat the Blue Jays in Toronto.

Yoshinobu Yamamoto started and won Game 6, then got the final eight outs of Game 7 to win World Series MVP. Will Smith hit the game-winning home run in the 11th inning of Game 7, after his 73 innings behind the plate were the most by any catcher in World Series history.

There was also the Kiké Hernández alert double play to end Game 6, with a throw that was expertly scooped at second base by Miguel Rojas for the final out of the game. Rojas then hit the game-tying home run in the ninth inning of Game 7 to send the series finale into extras.

The Dodgers are the first MLB team to win consecutive titles since the New York Yankees in 1998-2000. A championship parade is coming Monday in downtown Los Angeles, plus a celebration at Dodger Stadium.
