With the winter meetings starting today, the Dodgers will look to start addressing their list of off-season needs before the calendar turns to 2019.

With MLB’s winter meetings set to begin, Andrew Friedman and company are looking to return from Las Vegas as big winners.  While most look to return from Las Vegas with newfound money, the Dodgers will look to return with a different kind of newfound riches.  They will look to head back to Los Angeles with some upgrades in hand and perhaps even Bryce Harper.

While Harper would be the true landing of a “whale”, the Dodgers have several other check boxes that need to be checked off even if Bryce Harper becomes a Dodger.  Those needs are bullpen, catcher, and maybe even an upgrade for second base or the starting rotation.  After losing two straight World Series, these are the Dodgers’ needs ranked in order from least important to most important.
