What Dodgers Starting Lineup Could Look Like Following Kyle Tucker Signing
In this story:
He now joins what is already considered the sport’s most stacked lineup as he enters his ninth major league season. Here’s a look at what the Dodgers could look like in 2026 following the addition of Kyle Tucker
What Dodgers lineup looks like following addition of Kyle Tucker
Tucker will enter a lineup filled with some of baseball’s best bats—Shohei Ohtani, Freddie Freeman, and Teoscar Hernández, to name a few—along with some of the game’s top defenders in Tommy Edman and Mookie Betts. He’s a strong candidate to take over in right field, sliding Hernández to the opposite corner, while also taking over as the team’s cleanup hitter.
Here’s a projected look, according to FanGraphs:
Order | Player | Position |
|---|---|---|
1. | Shohei Ohtani | DH |
2. | Mookie Betts | 2B |
3. | Freddie Freeman | 1B |
4. | Kyle Tucker | RF |
5. | Will Smith | C |
6. | Max Muncy | 3B |
7. | Teoscar Hernández | LF |
8. | Andy Pages | CF |
9. | Tommy Edman | 2B |
Oh yeah, and their starting pitching lineup? Just as lethal.
Order | Player |
|---|---|
SP1 | Yoshinobu Yamamoto |
SP2 | Blake Snell |
SP3 | Shohei Ohtani |
SP4 | Tyler Glasnow |
SP5 | Roki Sasaki |
