Fans react after Dodgers’ brilliant performance

After the Los Angeles Dodgers performed brilliantly, while fans celebrated, a few of them also questioned claiming it is a team which has spent a lot of money on their players, and that they are bound to perform well.

A fan said:

“First to 25, and they’re running the league like it’s spring training with stakes. Who’s keeping up? Spoiler: not many.”While another fan claimed:

“This is expected when you can spend an infinite amount of money on players.”A fan said:

“With that payroll…I would hope so!!”Another fan called for a salary cap.

Another fan took a more analytical stance and said:

“They also lost to one of the worst teams in baseball yesterday, 2 starting position players are on the IL, 1 maybe 2 starting pitchers are proven reliable, bull pen has injuries and inconsistencies so let’s have this discussion when they are first to ninety. Go Blue.”Another fan reacted:

“Wow MLB are you telling me the super team that spent twenty billion dollars on their roster is the best team in baseball? I for one am shocked, certainly I didn’t see this coming and I cannot possibly imagine anyone else having seen this coming either.”Also Read: “He’s Under The Weather”- Dodgers’ Dave Roberts Opens Up About Blake Snell’s Injury Update
