It's not even a guarantee Ohtani will be the same pitcher when he comes back in a year or so. The Dodgers WAY OVERPAID! Get 3 good players for for 20 million each and keep 10 million to boot. Look it up. EVERY SINGLE LONG TERM DEAL OF 8 OR MORE YEARS NEVER WORKED OUT FOR THE TEAM, ONLY THE PLAYER! Owners are so damn dumb!

It makes sense in off field money internationally but I could totally see his arm never coming back and him being the most expensive DH of all times...Jerseys are $145. a pop- he'll sell 2 million also can't hurt TV rights


Go Dodgers$$$$$

Got an outfielder in AAA ready to play
I was hoping for Yamamoto and a left handed 2 or 3 started, the dodgers have bats.
I hate buying a team, it never seems to produce championships teams with longevity....never a dynasty.
Best teams are built, not bought.
Excellent Documentary on the way the Astors built what is looking like a dynasty .. 5 mins and you'll be hooked

Both but my "team" is the Mariners...Weirdly i will pull for the Giants too...
Giants have two great left handed kids coming up, but the NL west is a beast now.
Giants a 500 team?

I've lived in all 3 cities and went to a lot of losing baseball in empty stadiums at both Candlestick and the Kingdome.

NL West should be good but lot of local pessimism about Giants. Fans kinda sick of this mediocrity, lack of effort to chase talented guys.

Wish I could’ve gone to Candlestick for both baseball and football, but have been going to Oracle Park, which is lovely. Saw them play the Rangers and Reds (my team) this year. Great experiences

Candlestick for football is missed by the fans here. Levi’s is not bad but not quite the same vibe. Me and other Bengal fans took that place over in October. Wouldn’t have happened at Candlestick

If he can stay healthy the Dodgers have an epic 1-2-3 hitters in Freeman, Betts, Ohtani. I think this would make them the favorite to win the World Series this year and next.

Love Oracle, 3rd level...wow
Not a fan of Levi's mostly because of where it is...could have been great having the 49ers tucked just south of Levi's...at one point the land was avaliable.

Still love that city dispite the recent problems.
