If you are a fan of Major League Baseball and want to know the 1989 Dodgers roster, then you have come to the right place. You will recognize many of the names on the 1989 Dodgers roster. Veteran pitcher Don Sutton, 20-year veteran catcher Mike Dempsey, and All-Star Game winner Tom Lasorda all made an impact on the 1989 Dodgers team.
Although it may not seem like it, the Dodgers have exactly the right mix of players to win a championship. The outfield is filled with powerful sluggers like Cody Bellinger and Justin Turner. In the bullpen, there are relievers such as Kenta Maeda, who is a very versatile pitcher with a wide range of pitches. The starting rotation is stacked with young arms, and the Dodgers are poised to extend their lead in the division.
Another player who made an impact on the 1989 Dodgers was Kiki Jones. Jones, originally from Hillsborough High School, Tampa, Florida, was too small for the Major Leagues. However, his scouting director praised his curveball and arm. Jones was 8-0 in his rookie season with a 1.58 ERA. Unfortunately, injuries limited his playing time and led to arm problems. In the next two seasons, he was a combined twenty-two-seven-seven-for-two.
