2022 Los Angeles Dodgers Season

The 2022 Los Angeles Dodgers season was the 133rd season for the Los Angeles Dodgers franchise in Major League Baseball, their 65th season in Los Angeles, California, and their 60th season playing their home games at Dodger Stadium. The Dodgers hosted the 2022 Major League Baseball All-Star Game on July 19, 2022. This was the last season for Hall of Fame Spanish play-by-play announcer Jaime Jarrín, who had been calling games for the team since 1959.

On December 2, 2021, Commissioner of Baseball Rob Manfred announced a lockout of players, following expiration of the collective bargaining agreement (CBA) between the league and the Major League Baseball Players Association (MLBPA). On March 10, 2022, the MLB and MLBPA agreed to a new collective bargaining agreement, thus ending the lockout. Opening Day was re-scheduled for April 7. Although MLB previously announced that several series would be cancelled due to the lockout, the agreement provided for a full 162-game season, with originally canceled games made up throughout the season via doubleheaders, loss of off-days and extending the season by three days.

On August 2, Vin Scully, a Hall of Fame broadcaster for the team from 1950 to 2016, died at the age of 94.

Bolstered by the signing of Freddie Freeman, the Dodgers became the first team to clinch a playoff spot on September 12, the 10th straight year they had made the postseason. The following day, they also clinched their 20th National League West title, and their 9th in the last 10 seasons. On September 28, they broke the franchise record for total regular season wins by clocking their 107th victory of the year, surpassing the previous franchise high of 106 wins. The team also clinched the top seed in MLB for the first time since the 2017 squad. The Dodgers' 111 wins overall were the most by a team since the 116-win Seattle Mariners in 2001. Despite the record, they were upset by the 89-win San Diego Padres in the Division Series, losing in four games, which meant that the Dodgers did not make the World Series despite 100 wins for the third time in four seasons. Their 111 regular season wins is the most for any team to fail to win a postseason series in the divisional era.

Offseason

Broadcasting team

On September 28, 2021, the Dodgers Spanish language broadcaster since 1959, Jaime Jarrín, announced he would retire after the 2022 season. The Dodgers announced on March 14 several new additions to the broadcast team on SportsNet LA. Former Dodger Eric Karros, Dontrelle Willis, José Mota and Jessica Mendoza would be calling select road and home games as well as participating in the studio show. Another former Dodger Adrián González was hired as an analyst exclusively for the studio team.

Front office

On January 18, 2022, the Dodgers promoted Brandon Gomes to become the team's General Manager, the first time the Dodgers had someone in that position since Farhan Zaidi departed after the 2018 season.

Roster departures

On November 3, one day after the conclusion of the 2021 World Series, several Dodgers players became free agents: pitchers Danny Duffy, Cole Hamels, Kenley Jansen, Clayton Kershaw, Corey Knebel, Jimmy Nelson and Max Scherzer, first baseman Albert Pujols, shortstop Corey Seager, outfielder Steven Souza Jr. and infielder/outfielder Chris Taylor. On November 5, they outrighted pitchers Scott Alexander and Jimmie Sherfy and infielder Andy Burns, removing them from the 40-man roster. On November 6, they declined the 2022 option on relief pitcher Joe Kelly, making him a free agent. Outfielders Billy McKinney and Zach Reks were designated for assignment on November 19. On November 30, pitcher Andrew Vasquez was non-tendered and became a free agent. Infielder Sheldon Neuse was designated for assignment on December 1, and removed from the 40-man roster. On March 18, outfielder Luke Raley was traded to the Tampa Bay Rays in exchange for minor league pitcher Tanner Dodson. First baseman Matt Beaty was designated for assignment on March 23.

Roster additions

On November 10, the Dodgers signed pitcher Andrew Heaney to a one-year, $8.5 million, contract. On November 19, the Dodgers added five minor leaguers to the 40-man roster: Pitcher Michael Grove, infielders Jacob Amaya, Eddys Leonard, and Jorbit Vivas and outfielder James Outman. On November 30, the Dodgers signed relief pitcher Daniel Hudson to a one-year contract. On December 1, the Dodgers re-signed Chris Taylor to a four-year contract plus a team option for a fifth year. On March 13, 2022, the Dodgers re-signed Clayton Kershaw on a one-year, $17 million, contract. Pitcher Jimmy Nelson re-signed with the Dodgers for one-year, with a club option, on March 17. Pitcher Danny Duffy re-signed with the Dodgers for a similar one-year with club option deal the following day.

On March 18, as spring training was beginning, the Dodgers signed All-Star first baseman Freddie Freeman to a six year, $162 million, contract. The same day, they signed pitcher Tyler Anderson to an $8 million one-year contract. On March 23, they signed infielder Hanser Alberto to a one-year, $1.6 million, contract that included a 2023 option.

Lockout

The expiration of the league's collective bargaining agreement (CBA) with the Major League Baseball Players Association occurred on December 1, 2021 with no new agreement in place. As a result, the team owners voted unanimously to lockout the players stopping all free agency and trades.

The parties came to an agreement on a new CBA on March 10, 2022.

Rule changes

Pursuant to the new CBA, several new rules were instituted for the 2022 season. The National League adopted the designated hitter full-time, a draft lottery was implemented, the postseason expanded from ten teams to twelve, and advertising patches appeared on player uniforms and helmets for the first time.

Spring training

After the conclusion of the lockout, spring training was scheduled to begin on March 14 at Camelback Ranch in Glendale, Arizona. The Dodgers played a total of 18 games, 15 in the Arizona Cactus League and three Freeway Series games against the Los Angeles Angels.

During spring training, the Dodgers announced a three-year contract extension with Manager Dave Roberts, carrying him through the 2025 season. On April 1, they made a trade with the Chicago White Sox, acquiring reliever Craig Kimbrel in exchange for outfielder A. J. Pollock.

Season summary

April

The Dodgers began the season with a three-game road series against the Colorado Rockies at Coors Field, the second consecutive season they began in Colorado. Walker Buehler in his first career Opening Day start, allowed two runs on four hits with five strikeouts as the Dodgers won 5–3. The Rockies evened the series the next day with a 3–2 win thanks to a go-ahead homer by Connor Joe in the eighth inning. The Rockies won the final game of the series, 9–4, the first series win over the Dodgers at Coors since the 2018 season. The Dodgers next had a two-game series against the Minnesota Twins at Target Field. Andrew Heaney made his first start as a Dodger and struck out five in innings while the Dodgers offense scored six runs in the eighth inning to win 7–2. In the following game, Clayton Kershaw struck out 13 batters in seven perfect innings before he was removed by Manager Dave Roberts. The Twins got only one hit in the game, on a single off reliever Alex Vesia in the eighth. The Dodgers won 7–0 thanks to four home runs, including three straight in the top of the eighth.

On April 14, the Dodgers played their home opener against the Cincinnati Reds at Dodger Stadium. Will Smith (catcher), Will Smith hit a three-run homer as part of a six run eighth inning that led to a 9–3 win. The Dodgers also won on Jackie Robinson Day, 3–1, as both Trea Turner and Gavin Lux tripled in the game. Julio Urías allowed only one hit while striking out five in five scoreless innings on April 16 while Trea Turner's two run homer put the Dodgers on top and led to a 5–2 win. The Dodgers finished off the sweep of the Reds with a 9–1 win. Heaney struck out 11 and only allowed one hit in six scoreless innings and the Dodgers scored seven runs in the fourth inning to blow the game open. Freddie Freeman homered in his first at-bat against his former team when the Atlanta Braves came to town for a three-game series and the Dodgers won 7–4. The Braves won the next game, 3–1, to snap the seven game winning streak. The Dodgers only got two hits off Max Fried in seven innings. The Dodgers took the final game of the series, 5–1. Tony Gonsolin allowed only one hit in six scoreless innings and Freeman and Edwin Ríos homered in the win.

The Dodgers began a three-game weekend series with the San Diego Padres at Petco Park on April 22. In the opener, Mookie Betts hit two home runs and Max Muncy hit one as they won 6–1. The Padres won the next day on a walk-off sacrifice fly by Austin Nola in the 10th inning. The Dodgers routed the Padres in the final game of the series, 10–2, as Cody Bellinger hit two home runs. The Dodgers headed to Chase Field for a three game series against the Arizona Diamondbacks. Buehler pitched a complete game shutout, striking out 10 while allowing three hits and no walks. Will Smith homered in the game as the Dodgers won 4–0. The Diamondbacks won the next game, 5–3, thanks to a two-run homer by David Peralta in the eighth. Urías allowed only one run on one hit (a solo homer by Nick Ahmed) in six innings in the series finale, but the Dodgers lost 3–1 thanks to some sloppy defense in the eighth inning. This was the Dodgers first series loss to the Diamondbacks since the 2019 Los Angeles Dodgers season, 2019 season.

The Dodgers returned home to play the Detroit Tigers at Dodger Stadium for the first time since 2014 Los Angeles Dodgers season, 2014. In the first game, Justin Turner and Chris Taylor homered and the Dodgers won 5–1. On April 30, Kershaw struck out Spencer Torkelson to move past Don Sutton to become the Dodgers List of Los Angeles Dodgers team records, all-time franchise strikeout leader. However, the Dodgers lost the game 5–1 as the bullpen allowed four runs to score and the offense was silent.

May

Walker Buehler struck out five in five scoreless innings and the Dodgers won the final game against the Tigers, 6–3. On May 3, the Dodgers began a quick two game series against the San Francisco Giants. Julio Urías pitched six shutout innings, Chris Taylor doubled in two runs, and the Dodgers won 3–1. They won again the next day, 9–1. Mookie Betts and Max Muncy each hit home runs, and Freddie Freeman added two runs off a triple.

The Dodgers went back on the road to play the Chicago Cubs at Wrigley Field, beginning with a doubleheader on May 7 as a result of poor weather the previous day.

They also lost their normal second round pick and their fifth round pick as a result of signing free agent Freddie Freeman but gained a fifth round pick for losing Corey Seager to free agency.
