At least with the 90s/2000s Yankees they had a pretty good core of players they developed on their own. Jeter, Posada, Bernie, Soriano, Cano, Pettitte, El Duque, Mariano. That’s a lot of all-star caliber players developed by one franchise around the same decade or so. There were several others who weren’t all-stars but were legit contributors.
This current Dodger team has….Muncy, Pages, Will Smith, May and a broken down Kershaw. Everyone else was a high profile FA signing or lopsided trade.
I don’t like the Yankees but the Dodgers are definitely tracking worse.
