Mookie Betts

Betts once stole 30 bases in a season and is on pace to shatter that career high. What's behind the resurgence?

It’s basically one week into this MLB season, and of course it seems like the whole sport is turned upside-down. That’s how baseball works.

Betts on his position change: “The whole thing is hard. There's no shortcuts around it. There's nothing easy about it, by any means.”

The Dodgers kicked off perhaps their most anticipated campaign in decades with a patient, relentless approach at the Gocheok Skydome.

“There is a lot of doubt out there, which is cool," Betts said. "That’s what makes it fun. Somebody’s going to be right. We’ll find out."

It's not his ability to play the position that's worrisome. He'll likely be fine if not spectacular. But the move brings an element of risk.

For the second spring in a row, Lux’s presumed ascension to the shortstop role didn’t make it out of spring training.

The Dodgers superstar — after winning two World Series and an MVP award — talked about what keeps him going at this stage of his career.

Betts spent most of last season as one of the best players on the planet. In the playoffs, he vanished.

The Texas Rangers and the Toronto Blue Jays are the two teams with the most players nominated with five each.

The Dodgers went 1-for-6 with runners in scoring position and risk repeating last year’s shocking exit.

This summer, Betts and Freeman set the table at the top of the order and they set the tone in the Dodgers' clubhouse.

Plus, Shohei Ohtani for AL MVP and a no decision for NL Cy Young?

Betts surpassed Colorado Rockies outfielder Charlie Blackmon, who drove home 103 runs in 2017.

J.D. Martinez and Mookie Betts, Rodriguez’s former teammates, knew the deal was off after he ignored their "welcome to the Dodgers" texts.

“Atmospheres like this are what make baseball fun," Betts said after the Dodgers lost an 8-7 nail-biter to the Braves.

Since the Dodgers hit their low point in June, they’ve gone 44-16 — a 119-win pace.

Betts is still the kid who was reared in Boston, especially on the field, and it was all on display Friday night in Los Angeles' 7-4 win.
