The Los Angeles Dodgers are betting on their depth getting them to the playoffs. The three-time NL West champions were hard-hit by injuries this spring, leaving the starting rotation behind three-time Cy Young Award winner Clayton Kershaw in disarray. Instead of boasting baseball's highest payroll for the second straight year, the Dodgers have cut nearly $40 million in salaries and will have an estimated opening day payroll of $234.7 million.
