The 2024 Los Angeles Dodgers are loaded with star power in every facet of the team. That means they also have several fantasy baseball assets, including nine players coming off the board in the top 110 picks on Yahoo, and one very intriguing wild-card player being drafted just after that.

We asked our MLB and fantasy baseball analysts to each provide a season outlook for one of the 10 players to further understand the potential of this talented ensemble.

Mookie Betts is coming off his most prolific offensive season since his 2018 MVP campaign and is expected to once again occupy the leadoff spot for the Dodgers, just as he did 151 times a year ago. This season, though, Shohei Ohtani will be hitting behind Betts instead of Freeman who will follow Ohtani in the No. 3 spot. Will this make any tangible difference in how Betts is pitched? I’m guessing not, but another layer of superstar lineup protection surely couldn’t hurt, and I do wonder if Betts does even see a handful more hittable pitches than he did last year — the kind he so regularly capitalized on hitting in front of Freeman.

Betts has evolved into a bona fide slugger, adding a couple ticks of average exit velocity and nearly perfecting the art of pulling fly balls en route to a career-high 39 homers. The fact that he was able to record the highest-walk rate of his career hitting in front of literally Freddie Freeman is further evidence of just how locked in Betts was at the plate for the entirety of last season. He knows exactly what pitches he’s looking for, and when he gets them he does damage. It’s obviously a pick-your-poison situation for opposing pitchers facing the top of the Dodgers lineup, but I wouldn’t be surprised at all if Betts continues to escalate his power production further with Shohei Ohtani now chillin’ on deck behind him. If he gets even a smidge more pitches in the zone to attack, we could be looking at 40+ homers
