The Dodgers’ championship streak is in jeopardy as they slump through a brutal stretch, losing seven straight and crumbling at home despite a recent Rockies sweep. Their beleaguered closer Edwin Diaz is sidelined again with a neck issue—likely mental, not physical—and his shaky return from elbow surgery has left the bullpen exposed. Meanwhile, mega-deal signing Kyle Tucker is a disaster at Dodger Stadium, hitting under .200 and making costly errors, yet remains in the lineup as if in extended spring training. Underlying it all: fatigue. With only two everyday players under 30, this aging squad is paying the price for back-to-back deep playoff runs, and key stars like Mookie Betts and Teoscar Hernandez are showing signs of burnout. Can they overcome these cracks and make it three titles in a row—or is this their last dance?
