I'm still thinking about it and I don't understand how we don't bring Walker back.
He didn't miss in the playoffs besides the one game in the DS and that wasn't all his fault.
This guy on shorter rest pitched out of the pen and got 3 outs.....
I hope and pray we working something with Walker....

I'm just not with this depiction "Just like the Yankees but worse!"
They've literally been doing this for
D E C A D E S.
Their 27 championships didn't just come from an excellent farm system.
AND FOURTEEN WS LOSSES!
FOH

crazy to think that the two pitchers who helped close out WS games will be gone
urias (obviously) under different circumstances

Show me one time in Yankee history where they bought 3 MVPs in their primes in a 4 year period.
Again, I dont blame the Dodgers one bit for doing this. They are operating within the rules and not doing anything wrong. But give me a break Ska. You have been trying to use examples from 100 years ago, as well as making comparisons that arent even close to the same thing.

I never said it's the same thing, but "It's not the same thing!" is a disingenuous rebuttal, because no 2 things being compared are the same.
Ever.
The Yankees have been stacking their squad en route to 41 WS appearances for almost 100 years.
Of course the details have been different in every decade, but they're not called the 'Evil Empire' just because of 3 or 4 years of stacking the deck that pissed everyone off.
They've BEEN on this.

I got a feeling we’ll get Soto too. Friedman is cut throat. He let Turner, Seager, Darvish and JT go no problem. And they are all better than Teo and Buehler. He’s had this planned out for years. 4D chess

The first year back from TJ, or TJ-like surgeries, aren't exactly promising either so I wouldn't be against this. Knowing him, he's anxious to pitch so a good compromise could be coming out the pen a couple innings a week. Shohei has shown how special he can be when focusing on just hitting, and there's more that can be tapped into as well, so I'd be interested to see how he follows up the 50/50 season.

if any of these big signings busted like the xander bogaerts signing, the dodgers would get meme'ed to hell and this wouldnt be an issue. the only difference is that the dodgers hit on all of their big signings. and its not even like the dodgers "outbid" everyone for mookie and freddie.
blame the red sox for trading mookie to the dodgers and giving them an opportunity to extend
blame the braves for bringing in olson to replace freddie (who wanted to stay)
but this notion of the dodgers "buying" championships is so lame. folks went from "mickie mouse ring" and "theyre going to get swept in the NLDS again!" to crying about fairness real quick.
