@dodger_daily Lots of speculating. U don’t know if any promises were made…

The Roki Sasaki situation is complicated, and it's not as simple as making it black and white. Sasaki, unquestionably, has NOT performed well enough as a starter to deserve a spot in the opening day rotation. But, he was KEY in the World Series title last year, AND, he took WAY less money to join the Dodgers. He did that because he believed in the Dodgers' developmental system, and he felt as if he could grow the most under the Dodgers instruction. He also wanted to play with Shohei Ohtani and Yoshinobu Yamamoto. Beyond that, I'm sure, as part of the sales pitch, the Dodgers assured him a spot in the rotation, because they were the only organization that could "logistically" implement a 6-man rotation. They can do that because Ohtani is a 2-way player, so, in essence, they can have 14 pitchers. So, to get Sasaki to sign, especially considering he was signing early, and thus, had to sign a Minor League contract, their HAD to be promises made. One could assume the Dodgers assured him a spot in the rotation, and, more importantly, a role as a starter. And, you have to understand, one of the secret sauces for the Dodgers with Free Agents is that they have developed a remarkable reputation for delivering on the promises they make. That alone is a MAJOR factor as to why the Dodgers are THE destination for Free Agents. And the ability to acquire the CORRECT Free Agents can NOT be understated as to the impact it's made in creating this dynasty. So, to move Sasaki either to the pen or to AAA, they would have to back out on a promise made, and one that was instrumental in his signing with the Dodgers instead of the Padres or any other organization. It's truly a "rock and a hard place" because you have everyone else on the "merit system" and pitchers being sent to OKC that deserve better, meanwhile, Sasaki is getting preferential treatment. Then, on top of all that, one of the LARGEST parts of this dynasty construction has been capturing the Asian market, specifically the Japanese market. The Dodgers have done such great work capturing that audience, and because of it, they are swimming in both money AND championships. It's been a 100% Win/Win, and surely NO ONE would want to upset that Apple Cart. Especially over a 6th starter, who has potential, as he showed in the playoffs last year? And on a team that could win 100+ games and win the Division by double digits? Even if he doesn't pitch well! Even if he pitches well in just 1/2 his outings, the Dodgers might win 110ish games if everything else plays out the way it should. That's the "rock and a hard place" that I see, and I can see both sides of it. For me, it just kind of "Is What It Is, and I trust the Front Office to massage this situation in a way that works for everyone in the long run. #dodgers

@AAApitcher Nah just fun the kick angels fans to the curb all the time with back to back rings

@kcusc Bout to a million dodger fans in my mentions rn you must care lmao

Angel stadium was sold out last night but the ravine was like 50% filled tonight lmao make it make sense bro

@SinBinVegas Since those trades….

Penalties have been a real issue for VGK since the Olympic break. Before Olympics: 2.80 per 60 Since Olympics: 3.99 per 60 *Not counting the 4 minors and fighting major tonight*

@Jram2TBJ You’re just mad cuz he kicked u to the curb after the Dodgers kicked the Bluejays to the curb Canadians are 🤡🤡 Majority of the Dodgers fans & former players like Karros are questioning Kim being sent to OKC And those trolls that say he wants the Dodgers to lose have no clue

The guy behind this account is one of the dumbest people I've ever seen on this app even disregarding his biased Kim takes

@LADodgersMuse Future LF after Teo….

I still can’t believe we got James Tibbs III in a trade man 😭😭

@GoldenKnights Any news about a new goalie is welcome

✍️ The Golden Knights have signed goaltender Pavel Moysevich to a three-year, entry level contract!! #VegasBorn vgk.io/wkymq

@JeffSpiegel It’s ok to question the front office. Questioning them doesn’t mean the front office sucks. It’s the best front office in baseball but that doesn’t mean they’re infallible.

Honestly, fair critique. I deserve this one.

@BlakeHHarris Roki should be in OKC and Rivers should be on the roster…..just like Kim should over Freeland

Roki Sasaki is a very rough watch right now

@JeffSpiegel Having Roki and Freeland on the roster over Rivers and Kim is wild

I’ve questioned all spring why the Dodgers came out so early + handed Roki a spot in the rotation. He hadn’t earned anything + it has backfired, because: now what? Can they really send him into a MLB game?! Or do they eat crow + reverse course? FASCINATED to see what they do…

@HyeseongKimMuse Those that say the decision is best for Kim for the long run, ok fine. They agree Kim had better #s But what gets me are those few that cover the team that try to use ridiculous stats to back Roberts decision. They avoid using real stats but some farce “potential” stats.

ERIC KARROS: “I mean, if I’m Kim, obviously I’m upset… I’d take it the next step further; I’d say I’m livid.” But, Freeland has more walks.

@HyeseongKimMuse You’ll likely get to 20K this season. Unfortunately hate on the internet comes with it. Block em.

@kcusc I’m talking about people who don’t follow me but have a group chat hating on me 🤣

Group of dudes on here tweeting about my account 20 times a day but trying to act like I’m the obsessed fan

@DMAC_LA Doug, you’re positioning this saying it’s to help Kim succeed in the long run. Fine. Others that cover the Dodgers tried to pull nonsense stats (instead of real stats) to try to justify. But do u at least agree that based on performance, Kim won the position over Freeland?

So people are doubting the organization that has won back-to-back championships. People are doubting the organization that is elite at roster management. I'd rather see Hyeseong Kim get an opportunity when he has the best chance to thrive. They know exactly what they're doing.

@TDChrisG same for double minors

The standard of goalie interference needs to be clearly, or better, identified.

@HyeseongKimMuse This muse ain’t playing

@Dodgers pitch comm issues shouldn’t happen in 2026. what a waste of time.

Tyler strikes out the side!

@SinBinVegas Ken do u like these lines or would u rather have Marner- Hertl- Pavel? This one seems to be better with RSmith.

VGK lines per radio pregame show A few changes from yesterday including Reilly Smith's return, Marner back at center, and Korczak back in for Hutton. Barbashev-Eichel-Stone R.Smith-Marner-Dorofeyev Howden-Hertl-Kolesar C.Smith-Dowd-Sissons McNabb-Theodore Hanifin-Korczak Lauzon-Andersson Hill

@SinBinVegas @dotvegasinc They played like they wanted it. They can say they always want to win but they don’t play like it all the time. Today, they went after it. Bruce needs to somehow harness this.

3 takeaways from the game, presented by @dotvegasinc 1) After 5 straight games in the press box, Reilly Smith is Johnny on the Spot in the biggest moment of the game. Great moment for VGK, even greater moment for #19. 2) For a good portion of that game, VGK looked like the team that absolutely had to have it. Traffic in front, stick checks, physicality on loose pucks. Need to keep carrying that forward 3) Last night, special teams cost VGK. Tonight it saved them. Huge middle frame that was exactly what VGK needed. Get a web address that stands out! Register your Dot Vegas Domain now for just $11 at Porkbun.com/SinBin.

@SinBinVegas Marner created that. He’s so good.

Reilly Smith cleans up the garbage on the backdoor! After weeks of healthy scratch he comes into the lineup and makes an instant impact. 3-2 VGK
