So while you’re wondering whether the Dodgers will be the best team in baseball this year (currently +165 at FanDuel to post the best regular season record), let’s talk about prospects, shall we? This season, we’ve only got 45 returnees, down 13.5 per cent from 2023. This was a surprise to an extent, but the new rules that incentivize teams to promote prosp ..read more
