Updated LAD roster
With the addition of Chase Utley and Franklin Gutierrez to the roster, the Dodgers now have a more solidified bench with both of them joining Austin Barnes as a lock to start the season on the 25 man roster unless injuries pop up.
Here is the updated roster from my point of view. In a few more days at least three players will need to be removed from the 40 man roster to make room for Romo, Utley, and Gutierrez.
