<p>The Dodger Dugout Dopes (the 3D's) kick off their podcast with discussions of the closer situation; predictions on the Dodger starting shortstop for 2023; who should bat leadoff (Trae vs. Mookie); the weirdness of L.A. Times sports columnist Dylan Hernandez; and what we love and hate about the Dodger Stadium experience.</p>

Dodger Notes and Opinions of July 18 with the Dugout Dopes

The Dodger Dugout Dopes - superfans Jim Brock, Rob Carnachan and Chris Joseph - join forces to talk about all things Los Angeles Dodgers. Each episode brings sometimes thoughtful (and sometimes not) analysis, probing questions about personnel and managerial decisions, and a segment where each of the Dopes puts on his General Manager hat and gets to make lineup and contract choices.  There will also be discussion and debate about needed rule changes in Major League Baseball. And watch for special guests in future episodes!
