I hope they return the front row back to the original location and
bring back all of the foul territory.

Do you think they'll move up the LED ribbon board to the second overhang?
Using a stolen chant from Boston Celtics fans whenever an L.A. team is playing up there just reeks of inferiority complex.
If hitting a baseball is the toughest thing to do in sports, then pitching must be the easiest thing to do in sports.

Nah, the support brackets are still there. If anything, they may add a second board. Gots to pay for all these new players somehow!
Isn't it trippy seeing the field level like that? Reminds me of the Shea and Yankee demos.
Also, did you guys notice the outfield wall scoreboards are gone? I'm sure they were removed with the LED ribbon boards just to protect them from all the construction going on. They will probably add the video boards above the pavilions last. Today is my last day of school, I will go down to the Stadium myself on Thursday and try to investigate the matter further.

I went to a game in LA in August. First took the tour in the day and hit the game at night. 70 degrees, light breeze, great crowd, beautiful park. I thought I was in heaven. I didn't think they needed to do anything.

That might be how you feel, but the ownership needed the renovations in order to compete with the rest of baseball.

kasten wants to eliminate the benches and make them seats to connect with the rest of the seating bowl

I like this. I've never been a fan of benches. And since you said that the outfield seating will be connected to the grandstand, it'll be interesting to see how the bullpens will be re-designed. Will they finish all of this 100% by Opening Day or will it be like the Kauffman renovations (year-by-year processs)?

I don't think the pavilions will be renovated or changed at all this year.
Things that will be changed for sure this off season:
- All 4 outfield scoreboards replaced
- New clubhouses and visitors batting cage
- New bars and "hang out spots"
- Free WiFi throughout the entire stadium
- "Upgrades" to the baseline box seats
Complete details and renderings are said to be released to the public next month.
Hoping the new scoreboards look something like this...

So are they flip-flopping the dugouts? Home dugout is now on the 1st base side?The Dodgers clubhouse, considered the third smallest clubhouse in baseball behind only Wrigley Field and Fenway Park, will be expanded to more than double its current size, while the visitors clubhouse on the third base side will be expanded by roughly half. The visitors side will also get its own workout room and batting cage, eliminating the need for opposing players to walk through the Dodgers' side to use the one workout room and batting case on the third base side of the stadium.

I doubt it. Probably a typo. Either that or both clubhouses were/are on the 3B side.

^ How could a clubhouse be on the opposite side of the field from its associated dugout?

Nah, there is/was one batting cage for both teams, and it was on the Dodgers side.

Candlestick had both clubhouses on the first base side. The third base side was built on fill.

Wouldn't that be a bit of a problem for the team that has to walk clear across the stadium in order to get to their clubhouse?

That explains why the home dugout is on the 3B side at Dodger Stadium. Normally, you'd want your dugout to be on the 1B side because it's a shorter walk for a batter back to the bench after he makes an out. Not 100% sure about this, but I think majority of the MLB ballparks have their home dugout on the 1B side.
