Talk all the shit you want, the Dodgers don’t buy their teams. Drafted Outman, Buehler, Smith, Gonsolin, Miller, Kershaw, plus a lot of other talent on the team. Drafted Bellinger, Seager, Pederson, Jansen, Yordan Alvarez, plus more in the past, but lost them all through trade or free agency. Acquired most of the bullpen, Glasnow, Margot, Mookie, Taylor, Muncy, plus more through trade, giving up valuable pieces in the process. Don’t forget that Taylor and Muncy were nobodies in the league until they got to L.A. The biggest names we’ve signed long term through free agency the last few years are Freddie, Ohtani, and Yamamoto. How the fuck is signing three free agents buying your team? Sounds like saving up money for what you want and making good moves to me. This is chess, not checkers stop the hate, if your team made these moves you’d like it wouldn’t you? Don’t hate the player hate the game, go Dodgers.
Doesn’t mean a thing baseball is not the nba you can’t win because of super teams ask the Padres! It’s a long season and the dodgers are the biggest chokers in baseball!
@@g311music It absolutely does lol. These are players that improve any teams chances, and for the Dodgers specifically improve their weaknesses. Obviously there's no guarantees, but this is exactly what they should be doing.
@@XxXDestroyer I agree you should try and make your team better but just going crazy signing every single superstar isn’t a winning championships equation, it doesn’t always work and it usually doesn’t work out especially since they will keep running into the same problems year after year they dominate the regular season take a vacation in September then go into the playoffs cold and lose to teams like Arizona and San Diego! It’s been the dodgers biggest problem that’s why they are known as chokers. Hey at least April-September will be fun for them, gotta always look on the bright side.
@@g311music But that isn't what they're doing, they're buying players that actually greatly improve their biggest weaknesses like pitching. This is what they needed after barely doing anything last off-season, this betters their team and is a great business decision. Since the contracts will pay themselves with the amount of growth they're about to have from attendance, merchandise, and international sponsors.
The real impact is dodgers effectively turning Japanese league into its feeder’s league for the next decade. In 4 years they’d be lined up to recruit Roki Sasaki to the team as well and every other Japanese phenom. All other teams stands at huge disadvantage
I would say Hideo Nomo was the biggest Dodgers signing since Jackie in terms of social significance. Nomo basically proved that Asians could play ball with the best.
Im surprised more people aren't talking about that. Between Nomo's and Ichiro's impact it was obvious where he would go. Mariners were not in it and the proximity to japan is why he didn't go east.
The argument that it’s not fair isn’t valid to me. Teams go up and down all the time. This is a high point for the Dodgers organization and they are capitalizing on the resources they currently have.
The Dodgers have won their division for 11 consecutive years. This is not a short window of opportunity but a dominant superteam beating down the entire league. There needs to be measures to check their growth. How about LA forfeits a first round pick and their best prospect every time they sign a superstar? Not a bad price to pay for Ohtani & Yamamoto.
They have given up prospects to get guys (Mookie/TTurner/Glasnow) on their roster and yet the still produce new upcoming talent while signing these free agents. Thats the most impressive part, they produce their own talent consistently. Guys like Bobby Miller and Outman last year to go along with WSmith, Walker, and Gonsolin all Dodgers in house talent. Hell even the MVP of the last World Series is a Dodgers product. They are just an extremely well run org from top to bottom. I think even with those check and balances they would be this successful. @@FeiLi-i9z

As of right now the starting rotation is set and yea it’s a powerhouse right now. And then ya remember that they are getting Walker Buelher, Dustin May and Ohtani added to said rotation once their arms are healed! Having a rotation where you question where would Kershaw even fit in it is insane! Yea as a Dodgers fan, there is just no way I cannot be hyped about this, I’m (not) sorry. They’re setting me up for heartbreak again but I do not care! That’s me in 10 months to worry about but for now, the salt from the rest of the MLB is delicious!
The Red Sox have won 4 WS in the last 20 years. They’ve also signed the biggest FAs during the off-seasons such as Adrian Gonzalez, Chris Sale, Pablo Sandoval, Hanley Ramirez, Manny Ramirez, JD Martinez, Carl Crawford, David Price, and they retained Devers. Wether those contracts worked out or not they still signed the biggest free agents available
I love Ben Verlander. He just emphasized how much impact this will be and had no intention at all to disrespect no.42. It is simply surprising to see this big mess in those arguments in this country.
The Dodgers will get Roki Sasaki as well whenever he's posted now that this happened. They are building literal Team Japan masquerading as the LAD. Dark times for the rest of league if they actually perform.
Thats what I'm hoping for, this is more chances of sasaki to sign with the dodgers. This will become japans team of MLB and bring more revenue for the dodgers in the long run 🤞🏼🔥
As a Rangers fan tough to see but I'm ready for our financial situation to get fixed asap so we can hopefully sign hader and montgomery. Either way I'm happy to see the upcoming talent of Evan carter and wyatt langford play out.
@TheAz943 think we lined up long term pitching we hoping can hold out till post season. I think wyatt langford gonna be rookie of the year for Rangers.

I give the D-Backs credit for 2023 against Dodgers...but come on, it would have been a true major upset if they beat the Dodgers' Kershaw, Buehler, and Urias instead of Kershaw, Miller, and Lynn (the two last pitchers wouldn't even have started in other years)....
I cant say someone else is, simply because of how the market went. MLB Teams valued him as the top guy, and that speaks for itself. My personal opinion dosen’t matter in that discussion
@@PurelyBaseballYTmy take on it is that the guy who just won a cy young might be better then the e guy who has had success and lots of it just not in the mlb
I have an idea to help small market teams. The MLB should basically put some restrictions on big market teams and encourage small market teams to spend more.
I ain’t even a dodger fan but seeing other teams fans complain is funny cause it proves your fan base is broke Like the padres taking out loans to pay there players LA knows how to attract money to them easily
Last 20 years the team with the highest payroll almost NEVER wins the World Series! Good luck LA. Odds are stacked against you after spending that much money!
How can you say the best pitcher when the guy has never pitched in the MLB.These two signings will haunt the Dodgers for years to come paying these two guys over a billion dollars.
i actually disagree i still think the atlanta braves lineup is better. yes the braves pitching isn’t good but i am convinced you can’t beat the braves offensively. the dodgers are good yes. but against the braves it will be a fun game to watch. coming from a cubs fan btw.
Dodgers have THREE of the top 10 players going into next year. Betts Freeman Ohtani If we don't win at least 3 WS within the next 8-10 years then it's a bust
Glasnow will be a horrible contract if he keeps the pace of being injured. The most inngs he's ever pitched in a season is 120. I don't trust his body enough for that much money. I'm so happy AA of the Braves didn't make this move. Not like we have much to trade

@@RunForPeace-hk1cu Ohtani is Soto's bitch. And Sp 25 is everyday player 35 little child. You bums will do what you have done your entire history. Choke when it matters. Cope.
@@judge9971 Quite arguably. But don't sleep on Verdugo. That guy can bat .300 in that lineup easily. And having him followed up by (potentially) Judge, Soto then Dominguez is a potentially lethal order.
Legit question: Opposing fans are obviously upset at this monstrous flex of money. But, what do the actual LAD players think about it? Guys like Muncy, Smith, or Lux...how do they truly feel about the circus that is the Dodgers buying power? Take a look at the Giants of 10 years ago. They won 3 World Series titles in 5 years with basically no superstars and good pitching. A remarkable feat. And they will forever be remembered as a team that won it all with heart and by playing smart fundamental baseball. Today's Dodgers however, IF they win a World Series, will forever be remembered as winning it only after spending a BILLION+ dollars to do so. That can't be a great feeling, can it? Just my thoughts, but what do I know.
In the end, isn't the talent, skill set, and play savvy of all the players in the team that determines championships regardless of how much you spend?? And 10-15 years ago, you didn't have a Shohei Ohtani or any of the freakishly athletic and talented players you see now that and those that came out at least 5 years ago. Can't compare that era (2005- 2013) to today's baseball, which had grown competitively in exponential terms. Team owners and team management need to spend nowadays. Nothing is free. It's getting the right personnel at the right time that's critical for teams
Could you imagine bitching about your ownership that won a World Series few years ago. I’m a pretty casual baseball fan so correct me if I’m wrong but using red Sox as an example of bad ownership is pretty fucking stupid considering their division and their attempts to at least put a competitive team out there. The draft lottery for baseball is the stupidest shit I’ve ever seen I fucking can’t understand why the did it. “Oh geez how do we punish tanking, how bout we cripple the small market teams doing it and randomize the picks so that they could potentially go to a mid team” I’m a reds fan and I think it’s stupid that we got the #2 overall pick. I ain’t gonna defend owners at all but like I hate to say under new rules, do you seriously think the pirates or say Rockies win a World Series in the next 100 years. I’d bet money against it. Baseball doesn’t need a salary tax but make the luxury tax more punishing. Also, after ohtanis contract make deferred money count towards the tax in full. Ohtani did it and should keep the discount but it’s bullshit if every person did it after. This admittedly is nitpicky tho.
I used the Red Sox, to compare a big market to another big market. Won a world series in 2018, but since then haven’t cared. Numerous opportunities to get better, and they don’t take it. A big market should be able to spend, and make moves.
@@PurelyBaseballYT ok, that makes sense, but they do play in a top 2 division in terms of difficulty so do u truly blame them.( sorry for getting mad earlier)
No Dodgers fan here. But man you have to love their management willing to spend and try to wins.

Dude throws shade on the padres because he’s mad about the boegarts signing ! Turd 😢
😂😂🐐 the only one who could figure it out
Question if Ohtani is the best pitcher then how many cy young’s has won? I’ll wait.
I never said Ohtanis the best pitcher lol 🤦♂️🤦♂️ They signed Yamamoto. The best pitcher in Free Agency.
He's the best 2-way elite player since Babe Ruth. And he is better than Babe.
better then baby idk easy to say that but babe was hitting 60 hrs during the deadbolt Era and doing it hungover/ still drunk
babe*
deadball
Somehow Boston is always top 10 in payroll 😢
Blue Jays sucked anyways, they would most likely choke an 8-1 lead. Go Dodgers! 💙
Texas Rangers repeat
You’re reaching on the verlander deal
43 year old got 43M per LMAO
mlb facing the same dilemma as the Premier League...Dodgers looking more like ManCity apart from the wins...
All this for them to choke in the playoffs
Kasaki is younger & has a way higher upside than Yamamoto & Juan Soto is lightyears a better hitter than Ohtani.
Yamamoto is 25yrs old little bruh ... LOL
Soto can't hit Ohtani's pitch LOL
Cope.
@@RunForPeace-hk1cu Ohtani is Soto's bitch. And Sp 25 is everyday player 35 little child.
You bums will do what you have done your entire history. Choke when it matters.
Cope.
Judge is the best hitter
@@judge9971 Quite arguably. But don't sleep on Verdugo. That guy can bat .300 in that lineup easily.
And having him followed up by (potentially) Judge, Soto then Dominguez is a potentially lethal order.
Soto sucks....246 .236 .275 avg in last 3 years...haha trash!
Legit question: Opposing fans are obviously upset at this monstrous flex of money. But, what do the actual LAD players think about it? Guys like Muncy, Smith, or Lux...how do they truly feel about the circus that is the Dodgers buying power? Take a look at the Giants of 10 years ago. They won 3 World Series titles in 5 years with basically no superstars and good pitching. A remarkable feat. And they will forever be remembered as a team that won it all with heart and by playing smart fundamental baseball. Today's Dodgers however, IF they win a World Series, will forever be remembered as winning it only after spending a BILLION+ dollars to do so. That can't be a great feeling, can it? Just my thoughts, but what do I know.
In other words “😢😢😢”
I think the Dodger players are all for their team turning into Team Japan.
They already won a World Series. Are dodger fans mad because our front office wants to win? No. Love the hate from the world
In the end, isn't the talent, skill set, and play savvy of all the players in the team that determines championships regardless of how much you spend?? And 10-15 years ago, you didn't have a Shohei Ohtani or any of the freakishly athletic and talented players you see now that and those that came out at least 5 years ago. Can't compare that era (2005- 2013) to today's baseball, which had grown competitively in exponential terms. Team owners and team management need to spend nowadays. Nothing is free. It's getting the right personnel at the right time that's critical for teams
I can’t believe the Dodgers are trying to win so badly 😢
Dodgers are simply that good of an organization!
Ben knows very little about baseball history...just Ohtani's 😂
Oh, did you get your feelings hurt...boo hoo
Could you imagine bitching about your ownership that won a World Series few years ago. I’m a pretty casual baseball fan so correct me if I’m wrong but using red Sox as an example of bad ownership is pretty fucking stupid considering their division and their attempts to at least put a competitive team out there. The draft lottery for baseball is the stupidest shit I’ve ever seen I fucking can’t understand why the did it. “Oh geez how do we punish tanking, how bout we cripple the small market teams doing it and randomize the picks so that they could potentially go to a mid team” I’m a reds fan and I think it’s stupid that we got the #2 overall pick. I ain’t gonna defend owners at all but like I hate to say under new rules, do you seriously think the pirates or say Rockies win a World Series in the next 100 years. I’d bet money against it. Baseball doesn’t need a salary tax but make the luxury tax more punishing. Also, after ohtanis contract make deferred money count towards the tax in full. Ohtani did it and should keep the discount but it’s bullshit if every person did it after. This admittedly is nitpicky tho.
I used the Red Sox, to compare a big market to another big market. Won a world series in 2018, but since then haven’t cared. Numerous opportunities to get better, and they don’t take it. A big market should be able to spend, and make moves.
@@PurelyBaseballYT ok, that makes sense, but they do play in a top 2 division in terms of difficulty so do u truly blame them.( sorry for getting mad earlier)
I just hope the raucous Dodgers fans behave and play good host for the thousands of Japanese tourists coming over to watch their superstars play.
Residents around LA will pay for it with higher cable bills.
He is not the best hitter Juan Soto and Arron Judge are better than ohtani period.
Your so late to this
Late on Yamamoto signing?! 😭 I posted it at 1 PM 😂😂😂
