Mets vs. Dodgers: L.A. showcases its resolve, star power and depth beyond Shohei Ohtani and Mookie Betts to reach World Series

The Dodgers spend more than other teams. They also develop players better than other teams. And over the past decade, they have become the best organization in the sport. When it comes to improving their roster, enough is never enough for the Dodgers.

With their payroll and star-studded roster, the Dodgers being World Series-or-bust is no big secret.
