That’s a real good way to describe why some talented teams reach the next level and others don’t.
Is it just me…

Its really adorable watching you two arguing over who the 2nd best team in the history of MLB is.
Since we all know who is King
Wow I counted and 1 more HOF than the Dodgers - just like wins and losses will go back and forth
Who had Ozzie Smith hitting his first home run from the left side to send your Dodgers home? Who had David Freese hitting a walkoff homer against the Rangers when we were down to our final strike twice?
I’ll wait.
You really think The Machine and Yadi will go through in as Dodgers? (And if Wainwright has a good enough year, maybe he gets in as well.)
Who called historic Ebbetts Field AND Chavez Ravine, home? (Aint no way Memo's got a comeback for THIS!)
I'll wait.
But I will say that the website counted all players that played for St Louis and Dodgers at some point in time
I have no clue on the old timers which ones went in as Dodgers and which ones went in as Cardinals

Not Trading Robert Woods, signing A Robinson and not signing Bobby Wagner would have saved a ton of money for an edge.
I think we could have been okay and ILB and WR had they not done either. Wagner played great, but feels like money not well spent.
Thinking we could have been okay with Jones in his stead...
They did have the money for Edge, they had actually offered more $$ to Von Miller than Buffalo did, and the way they put together Wagner's deal, it seems likely they could have afforded him too.
Hey - this turned into a baseball thread - keep on track
Kershaw for sure, absolutely. But the Cardinals already have 18 to your Dodgers 16, and Pujols and Molina are for sure going in as Cardinals. You have an uphill climb.

That's the website I used. Not sure if it counts managers and builders alongside players.

Lasorda didnt make many mistakes, but he trade Hall of Famer Pedro Martinez for a middlin 2nd baseman, huge error

The Wagner signing was a good one. Not for too much money either. Yes they made mistakes, they always have, but to say they didn't try to plug the holes is not true.
The Rams first pick in the draft was a big lineman. Can't help he got hurt.
So many thought they should have drafted Humphrey, but they had just given a contract to what they thought was their starting center. McVay wanted a deep threat, but then he got hurt and Skow happened and his versatility kept Tutu off the field.
I guess what I am saying is, just because their plan didn't work out doesn't mean they werent addressing holes.
I don't agree with all they have done, but what they have done is give me a SB winner and that is worth giving them a chance before we piss all over them.
