Last year, the Dodgers had Eight (count ’em, 8) rookies on the roster in total. I did a hurried comparison and I think only San Francisco had more rookies than the Dodgers. I could be wrong … feel free to do the research and get back to me. But the point is: The Farm System is productive and still a TOP 3 system. In fact, if the Dodgers just sign Rendon and Cole and don’t make any prospect trades, it’s possible they could have the #1 farm system by spring. Here are the eight rookies:
- Alex Verdugo
- Gavin Lux
- Will Smith
- Matt Beaty
- Kyle Garlick
- Tony Gonsolin
- Dustin May
- Josh Sborz
Is it possible we see eight more in 2020?
