  3. For a long time I watched Bud Selig purposely hold the Dodgers down. Installing puppet owners and ordering them to not spend over $100 million on payroll. While the Dodgers went 30 years without a World Series appearance. The Dodgers are getting their revenge. The baseball gods are smiling

  4. Wow SOOOOO impressive. 🤮🤮🤮You can win 100 world series in a row with a payroll more than 4x the lowest payroll in baseball and a full 2x annual contenders like the Mariners Tigers and Rangers

  13. Stop complaining about a lockout and start begging your team to spend money on players when they certainly can. Dodgers are taking advantage of it and it’s legal and fair. Yankees did the same thing years ago 😂😂

  16. MLB needs to do something about this and that is a cap, you can’t have a team building an all star team. Why should anyone get excited about the season when you know how it’ll play out ?

  17. Now they gotta fix this cause it's not ur Skankees😢 who cares what u say or think think ..
    I don't even know why u have a such job ..oh I know cause ur black 😮

  23. Nothing prevents the other teams from doing the same things except those owners being cheap. MLB doesn't need more salary cap. It needs a salary floor

  25. The Dodgers will win at least three out of the next five world series and they will have the 3:00 after this year. it will be the greatest dynasty in any sport ever besides MJs bills, Tom's New England Patriots and Magic Johnson Los Angeles Lakers and now The Kershaw, Betts, Feeman, Muncy, Ohtani, Yamamoto, Snell, Glasnow Dodgers

  26. The Mets just signed Bo. Bregman went to the cubs and we are just scratching the surface of signings. There's only a problem now bcuz it's the Dodgers 😂

  27. I am PROUDLY supporting my team ruining baseball, even though EVERY OTHER TEAM can do the same moves,deferring money, etc. if they choose. Instead, billionaire owners of other teams pocket their fans money instead of spending it. LOVE IT !!!🤣🤣🤣

  29. If your team:
    • Drafted better
    • Developed better
    • Spent smarter
    • Actually tried to win
    …they could attract players too.
    The Dodgers didn't break baseball.
    They just exposed which owners aren't serious about winning.

  31. They are paying Tucker for his prime years! He’s only 28! Ohtani got way better when he can to the dodgers even though he was already great.

  32. We are paying a nice complimentary player 60 mill and season now? Lol
    This dude isn’t elite at any one thing and did absolutely NOTHING against the Dodgers in the playoffs couple of months ago.

  33. He won’t even be worth 35-40 mill a season in real production and impact let alone 60! Lol A team that would have signed him for 8-10 years just lucked out.

  34. MLB needs a salary cap because it’s getting ridiculous with Dodgers having this much money to get players. There literally have ruined the sport. The MLB only wants the Dodgers to succeed. If that wasn’t true then there should have been a cap limit

  41. Stephen A talking shit again 😂 he just said I'm not going to be hypocritical and 2 seconds later he was being hypocritical 😂 What a shameless BASTARD!😂

  44. Baseball needs a lockout. Has been that way since the 90's and the Yankees, but the difference between the haves and have nots has just increased.
