The Dodgers finally have what it takes to win a World Series championship

The Dodgers have consistently been one of the best teams in baseball for the better half of the last decade. They have taken home the NL West division title for the last seven seasons, punching their ticket to the postseason year in and year out. They landed 100-plus wins in two of those seasons and boasted the best record in the majors in 2017. They even made it to the World Series in back-to-back years in 2017 and 2018.But despite all of these seemingly exciting achievements, they have failed to do the single most important thing any ball club sets out to do: bring home the Commissioner’s Trophy.

Everyone who was a part of the Astros’ 2017 campaign — from players to coaches to executives — deserves to be looked upon as cheaters because, well, they decided to cheat. Making the decision to use technology to steal signs during games ultimately won them a Commissioner’s Trophy they did not deserve.
