On Saturday, Dodgers manager Dave Roberts confirmed what Dodger fans have known since 1883:

“There’s going to be a target on our back, and we have to show up day in, day out, improve every single day in any way that we can,” Roberts told reporters following his team’s first full-squad workout of Spring Training 2025 at Camelback Ranch.

“There’s an understanding of what we’ve done, who we are, knowing that people are going to come after us with their best each and every night of baseball, and stressing more the mental part of it, the grind, how we do things, versus outside expectations and things like that,” added the Dodgers’ now 10-year skipper.
