The dodgers have about 1-2 more years before things go south with guys getting old (Freeman, Betts, and Teoscar, Snell will all be 35+) and they feel the effects of the Cohan tax on their farm system. Unfortunately though because of their success, there will likely be a lock out for 2027 with 29/30 owners wanting a hard salary cap.

Nothing more ludicrous than a bunch of billionaires complaining that the system isn't fair to them. You want to win? Spend some of Daddy's money. Otherwise, sell the team to someone who is willing to spend.
