The MLB offseason keeps getting better with surprises every day. The Los Angeles Dodgers have agreed to a five-year deal with top free-agent pitcher Blake Snell. The Dodgers were in the market for several players, including Juan Soto. However, not many have seen them leaning toward the former Cy-Young Award winner.
The Dodgers want to win another World Series in 2025. To do that, they must bolster their pitching rotation. Adding Snell to their lineup is sure to boost the team. Snell agreed to a $182 million deal with the Boys in Blue.
As news broke about Snell’s signing, some MLB fans called out the Dodgers for the latest deal, and some fans have questioned the franchise.

There is no way anyone can think the lack of salary cap is working for MLB. Sure I imagine @Dodgers are happy but this is chaos. Why even try anymore. How come cities like Cincinnati and Kansas City can have good football teams but terrible baseball teams?!?! See how this sucks!
