Thats what I said.....You said it was because of their Rich Winning History and i said it was because they had money to burn.
The Dodgers do put as good of a product as possible on the field and spend a sizeable chunk of change of change, they had the 6th highest payroll in 2009.
As seen by the Yanks the last few years, high payroll doesn't always equate into a championship, sometimes you gotta have heart
but the law of averages does take effect when you keep scooping up the biggest free agents around......last year they grabbed THE 2 biggest and then dished out another 80 Million for Burnett.....they spent HALF A BILLION dollars on those 3 guys.....that has nothing to do with "Rich Yankee History"
And if it wasn't about money then why don't you see players taking less than other teams offer to play for them just to be a part of this Rich Winning History
