since 1996 the Dodgers have won 92, 88, 83, 77, 86, 86, 92, 85, 93, 71, 88, 82. The reason that they have not been able to get over the hump is poor decisions by the front office on Free Agents to supplement the farm system. The recent signings of Juan Pierre, Jason Schmidt and Andruw Jones are perfect examples. They have made a few good moves like Kent but they have screwed up way more than they havent. Hell i dont even like the Dodgers but you cant say they dont do a good job finding and developing talent. If they can rid themselves of Jones, Pierre, and the rest of the deadwood they are positioned be a force for the next few years.
