The Dodgers face scrutiny as rumors swirl about their treatment of players over 30, with critics suggesting that veterans like Max Muncy and Kiké Hernández could be next on the chopping block. Austin Barnes and Chris Taylor, fan favorites, are also under the spotlight, with calls for a proper farewell as their performance has dwindled. Meanwhile, the decision to start rookie Dalton Rushing over seasoned catcher Will Smith raises eyebrows, especially with Clayton Kershaw returning to the mound. The Dodgers' management is being compared to the dystopian narrative of 'Logan's Run' as they prioritize youth over loyalty.
