The Dodgers have once again made headlines by signing Tanner Scott to a hefty four-year, $72 million deal, raising eyebrows across the league. This move not only solidifies their already formidable bullpen but also sparks a larger conversation about the current state of MLB and the implications of such spending.
Is this the new norm in baseball? With the Dodgers seemingly throwing money at every available talent, are we witnessing the birth of a new Super Team era? Or is this just a temporary phase that will eventually lead to a reckoning when the CBA negotiations come to a head in 2026?
Let’s talk about the impact of these massive contracts. Are teams like the Dodgers setting a dangerous precedent that could lead to a lack of competitive balance in the league? Or do you believe that this is simply a reflection of the market and the financial capabilities of certain franchises?
Moreover, what does this mean for smaller market teams? Are they destined to be perpetual underdogs, or can they find ways to compete in this landscape?
And let’s not forget about Tanner Scott himself. Is he worth the investment? Some argue that the Dodgers overpaid for a reliever who has only recently found his footing. What are your thoughts on the value of relievers in today’s game?
