I think top to bottom the 2021 Dodgers are the best roster in the history of MLB baseball. They are freaking ALL-STAR team, and a half.

No, I don't want to play in your franchise league where you get first pick and take the Dodgers! :lol:

Which team in MLB history had a better team top to bottom? Look at their SP. Heck, the whole roster.


MLB has a parity problem. It's a joke compared with the NFL.

Agreed. One word (hyphenated) - revenue-sharing

Now they add Freddie Freeman in to the mix. Yikes.

They didn't even win their own division, let alone the NL pennant.

Not many teams can lose a top shortstop like Corey Seager to free agency quite like the LA Dodgers...they simply slide Trea Turner in that spot and improve their defense and speed at that position.

The 1932 Yankees had 9 Hall of Famers on their roster. They won 107 games (154 game season) and won the World Series

Babe Ruth
Lou Gehrig
Bill Dickey
Tony Lazzeri
Earle Combs
Joe Sewell
Lefty Gomez
Red Ruffing
Herb Pennock

6 position players and 3 starting pitchers.

Still the best roster in MLB HISTORY top to bottom. No one else even comes close.

And if those two STRAT-O-MATIC teams played head to head 162 times, the Dodgers would win at least 95 times.


Were the two teams actually able to play in real life assuming both teams were in their prime, the Dodgers would win at least 75% of the time. Those guys from the 1930s would struggle against the 2021 Dodgers pitchers.

Babe Ruth hit hundreds of HRs off guys who would not make Double A minor league clubs of today. That is just a fact.

Babe Ruth played half his games in stadiums like Yankee Stadium...which makes today's stadiums seem like Little League Parks....balls were also deader then, not the super balls that have evolved since then.
