Lest we forget, the Dodgers were so close, so very close to winning the World Series last year and they were (for the most part) a very young team. The CF, SS and 1B were all under 24. The RF was 26 and the catcher was 27. Next year, they will be even younger after Chase Utley, Andre Ethier and Adrian Gonzalez are gone, but that’s not to say they can’t get better. As we contemplate this, FAZ, namely Andrew Friedman and Farhan Zaidi and the rest of their front office are working on just that.
Many of us would like to have Giancarlo Stanton on the team, and while I am not saying it won’t happen, I will say it will take some amazingly, incredible events for it to happen.
