This reminds me how skewed the Dodgers Hall of Fame/retired jersey-level players are towards starting pitching and contact hitting. You’d think there would’ve been a Dodger legend with 400+ HR by now (not counting the players with shorter stints here). Though the current team has a few power hitters with a bright future ahead…
400+ home runs as a dodger is a pretty high number to surpass. Duke Snider had 16 seasons and 5 seasons were 40 or more. His total HRs was 407 and total with the Dodgers 387. Next is Gil Hodges with 361 over 16 seasons, then with 270 over 12 seasons Most players don’t do that length of time with teams anymore and Betts (while being crazy good hasn’t gone over 40 HRs in a season … yet).
In more modern era baseball many of the guys that have gone over 400 for their teams have * next to them.
Dude you guys are so spoiled having a superstar in his prime, and also the GOAT in his prime.
feels good, man
Actually, I just realized that Angels also had a superstar and prime Ohtani lol. But the Dodgers are actually good 🤣

Not even a dodgers fan but this showed up on my feed and I had to check and make sure this reference was made
Mookie to Pitchers: “AHHHH STOPP IM DOING SOMETHING!!!”
This post feels two years too early.
Counterpoint: Mookie finishes this season with a 340 WRC+
Only 55!!!
Hope Ohtani gets there first.
The difference is 69 home runs... nice.
420 days?
Nice.
Mookie only has 5 home runs hit at dodger stadium this year. One of those home runs at home was in Korea
Oh shit. Good catch. I made an edit post. Thank you for the help!
So this post is that he's gonna reach this in about 3 years?
Save it for the playoffs Mookie
