69% Informative

One World Series championship is just not enough for this team.

The Dodgers have won 11 division titles in 12 seasons .

They have a payroll of almost $402 million , some $75 million more than anyone else.

The last baseball team to win consecutive titles was the three -peat New York Yankees from 1998-2000 .

This is not just the best and deepest roster in baseball, but they have the players.

They swept the Chicago Cubs in a two -game season-opening series in Tokyo without Mookie Betts or Freddie Freeman .

The starting rotation is so deep that Ohtani isn’t being rushed to the mound after Tommy John surgery.
