Even though the Rockies and Dodgers are both 5-5 over their last 10 games, they are pretty opposite. Los Angeles is in first place in the NL West at 36-22, while Colorado is in last place in the NL West at 20-35. The Dodgers are a perennial playoff team with championship aspirations. The Rockies haven’t had a winning record or playoff appearance since 2018.
The Dodgers have at least three Hall of Famers on their current roster with Mookie Betts, Freddie Freeman and Shohei Ohtani and the adjusted team payroll is $228,659,275 (No. 7 in MLB).
