Just at random recently, for no reason I’ve been thinking back to 2017 and just how soul crushing that whole World Series loss really was, just as I have from time to time in the past two years or so especially as the Dodgers have continued to struggle to win one.
I think it was especially harsh because that team seemed to represent everything the organization had been working towards for years since the Nick Punto trade and it finally all came together, creating an amazing combination of entertaining players who were also great at baseball.
Lots of other people thought so as well.
