I like the way Houston built their team, see why Cardinals-hacked their system. Dodgers are just a Western version of the Yankees/Red Sox. I miss the O’Malley days.

really? Because except for a couple old guys and one mid-season rental (Darvish), I've never heard of ANY of their position players....

These guys that are on their roster (and presumably getting paid handsomely) are NOT playing/contributing:

Gonzalez ($22.6 mil)
Ethier ($17.5 mil)
Granderson ($15 mil)
Utley ($2 mil)

Here's the salaries of their starting position players (only ONE I'd heard of before this year, Puig):

1B: Bellinger - $535,000
2B: Forsythe - $7,000,000
3B: Turner - $13,000,000
SS: Seager - $575,000
LF: Pederson - $555,000
CF: Taylor - $535,000
RF: Puig - $8,210,000
C: Grandal - $5,500,000

That, my friends, is some SERIOUS production out of a lot of mimimum-type guys...

To be honest, not really. Living in a town without a team sucks....and by "heard of", I really mean that prior to this year were any of them really STARS?

You dunce. What he means is that they play on the West Coast and nobody pays attention to any team that plays in that time zone especially ones with a stadium that has pale yellow seats despite yellow never being a color of the team and having fans that show up in the third inning and leave in the seventh inning and Yasiel Puig is a goddamn trainwreck on the field while celebrities molest children and ESPN decides to set up a studio in their town but nobody watching on TV could give a shit where they are broadcasting from because I hate Linda Cohn.

To be fair to Z, the Dodgers haven't gotten nearly as much talk as the Astros the last couple years.
