Bless their little hearts, the Dodgers want to get younger. And don’t we all.
Alas, despite bold pronouncements, the Dodgers have had about as much current success discovering that fountain of youth as Ponce de Leon.
With only slight off-season personnel changes, the Dodgers last seen in the postseason are going to look amazingly like the Dodgers who open the 2016 season. Only they’ll all be a year older.
They lost Zack Greinke, age 32, and replaced him with Scott Kazmir, age 32. Shortstop Corey Seager is 16 years younger than Jimmy Rollins, but had already supplanted him by the end of the season.
