The Dodgers also acquire/sign (and re-sign) key glue guys like Edman, Kike. The Betts trade remains the biggest "power shift" in this current era given how good Boston was in 2018 with him and how LA has taken off since then (also, none of those "prized prospects" did anything for Boston). And they continue to develop the other positions via the farm system. Yes, they don't lose anybody they wanted to keep. But they also do the other stuff better than most other teams that have the ability to make the same moves.
ain't no way his knee cap is in one piece. jays just don't want mariners to know springer is out. not yet anyway.
Lets also hope the Stros farm system either develops true stars/contrubtors... or nets trades for said star/contributor. Its been somewhat dormant/stuck in the middle over the last 2-3 years (but there are seedlings for both... and not counting the past-hype/elder guys like Melton, Whitcomb and Dezenso).
not gonna argue about developing players. however, none of dodgers' superstars are from their system.
If Dodgers win it all it’s going to cement a nasty upcoming stoppage and possibly lead to a salary cap, fair or not
I think a work stoppage is inevitable. All I hope for is that it leads to actual, meaningful, changes.
Ive known they were scums. That's why I will never respect the fans or the team, and want nothing but the failures to continue for them.
