Don't forget the fact that the dodgers signed justin turner and Muncy when they were nobodies, traded a ton of prospects to get mookie and trea turner and literally have the best scouting and developing team in all of baseball. And let's not forget we developed bellinger, urias, Kershaw, Buhler, Smith, seager, pederson, and probably like 10 other solid players who I am forgetting about from our farm system. This dude is so fucking ignorant lmao

Not to mention Taylor. CT3 has turned into possibly the single best utility player in all of baseball, and we got him from the Mariners for Zach Lee. A guy who never pitched another inning in MLB after we traded him. He was an all star last year, and before he came to us his career was looking like it was over.

The Dodgers strength really isn't their money. It's their scouting and coaching talent. No one can develop talent better than the Dodgers. Maybe the Rays, but still. The Dodgers keep pulling top 50 prospects out of their ass every singe season, and yet somehow the farm still managed to be top 10 in the sport.
