And the dodgers are are bunch of guys are about team and family from the top on down.. players who are willing to check ego at the door.. and really like each other and a manager who loves them and respects them and they love and respect him...the dodgers have been this way for years...
The Dodgers are not a toy and the money they spend for great Japanese players is really just an investment to tap into the Japanese market. The extremely positive monetary return from that investment is helping to pay for the high cost of their payroll plus taxes. Michael Kay is both honest and smart about the Dodgers advantage, as the NY teams have been playing this game since the mid 70's.
Guys.....The Dodgers see a window to win WS over a number of years and are pushing all the chips in. Ohtani is the game changer because he affords the Dodgers the ability to recoup all of what they're spending. IF they succeed with winning multiple championships.....ALLLL the money they spend will come back ten time over. Ohtani probably wont happen again so baseball won't be "broken". Matter of fact....I guarantee you that IF they win 3 of the next 6 WS, the game would have grown Exponentially. Fans are just in their feelings right now but, their overreaction is actually helping the sport because a villain is always good for sports
The money is coming back regardless of winning. They project a 2.8B$ return on the Ohtani deal. The other part of it is the Guggenheim group is worth 360B$ they specialize in making money. It’s the mothership
All started when the Dodgers got cheated on. Then, got swept by the dbacks. Lastly, the team thought we’re good, then injuries happen. The Dodgers are lucky to pass the Padres because of injuries. So all of these things for me are the mean reason why the Dodgers are shopping spray this off-season. Now talking about business, every team has a plan and strategies specially in the offseason. The Dodgers are doing it! Why can’t the other team do the same? You have to invest! Now the Dodgers are doing everything they could to be better, is it a sin?
The Dodgers are making money hand over fist. They NOT only have the eBEst TV deal, they also draw more fans than any other team at home and on the road. Think of all the money they make other teams on top of all the profit sharing money they distribute.
all i hear is sour grapes. And tell me, where's all the dodgers luxury tax $ go to? hmm? uh, yea, to teams who don't spend it and pocket that $. so don't give me this bullshit about spending. what happen to Uncle Steve blowing every other team outta the water with spending?
Baseball is a business!! they're all playing by the rules!! And if it's a business, you invest in your business and put the best product out there for your consumer the fans!! This is the beauty of capitalism if you don't like it, Get pissed at your owners!! And take a playbook from the Dodgers front office... while others are playing checkers. The Dodgers are playing chess!!
Please look at the bigger picture instead of your team at the moment.. The Los Angeles Dodgers are unparalleled pioneers in exporting Major League Baseball to the world, transcending American borders to ignite a global passion for the sport. From historic international games to fostering talent from all corners of the globe, the Dodgers have been instrumental in making baseball an international phenomenon by bringing in international players from all over the world, Dominican Republic, Mexico, Australia, of course, Japan, and now bigger players from Japan and even Africa these guys are way above and beyond and always thinking about the future By embracing players, fans, and cultures from around the world, they’ve transformed the game into a universal language of competition and community. Their legacy isn’t confined to championship it’s in spreading the love of baseball to new markets and inspiring future generations of players and fans worldwide. That’s why the MLB embraces the Dodgers go to market strategy!!!
ALL of this spending is due to one thing. The Ohtani effect. Him deferring most of his contract and the $ he's bringing in to the Dodgers from Japan and sponsorship , jersey sales, etc is where all this $ is coming from. this was a master plan the Dodgers had in the works for years and it's finally hitting. all the years of them being frugal was all geared towards landing Ohtani and the effect he would bring. pure n simple.
![URGENT! LOOK WHAT DAVID SAMSON SAID ON DODGERS CRAZY SPENDING AFTER MAJOR SIGNINGS! [Dodgers News]](/img/1.gif)
Dodgers signed an 8 billion dollar tv deal... No other team in any sport has such a deal
No one mentions it tho
And the dodgers are are bunch of guys are about team and family from the top on down.. players who are willing to check ego at the door.. and really like each other and a manager who loves them and respects them and they love and respect him...the dodgers have been this way for years...
If you notice at Dodgers Stadium , Sponsorship galore , plus overseas marketing in Dodgers merchandise as well !!

I seriously doubt that the Dodgers business plan is to lose money.

@@CharlieBonner-b9m I know but winning gets a better return.

Make your team desirable and maybe you'll get a big tv deal too. Could be more profitable then waiting for a charity hangout
A salary floor better than a cap.

The Dodgers will represent the National League in this year's All Star Game. 😂
Doyers 4 👈
Red Sox traded Mookie to the Dodgers so they have no reason to be upset. Mookie NOT Ohtani started this behemoth.
He braves didn't want Freeman

Well said! But everyone stays hating on the dodgers! Welcome to a new era of dodgers and dynasty incoming!

@@louismestas4355 Great take, you get the big picture,
TERRIBLE FOR THE SPORT?? IT'S ABOUT BUSINESS BABY!!!

no end to this ... are the Dodgers a Super Team now ???!!!
The Dodgers make the money back in media distribution...world wide...think of the possibilities.
Calm down. They signed a rookie and a closer. They lost Buehler who’s a proven starter.
And what is the problem? Play ball in April …
The Dodgers came within a hair of losing to the Padres last year. Of course they were going to improve
What "haves and have nots" are you referring to? The cheap owners arent poor - smh
Other owners are cheap and greedy. Go sign players. Cry babies need to stop.
Baseball needs a salary floor
But the dodgers aren't the evil empire... Yankees and Red Sox were the last to integrate major league baseball... that's all you need to know...
