@MattZemek A “modest offer” is only modest when you know you can replace everything you just traded away. Most teams don’t have that luxury.

@USCnDodgerBlue @dodgeballer1 Three mistakes: AUM isn’t cash, Japan doesn’t cover payroll, and escrow isn’t funded the way you claim.

@KevinGraySports Calling it “the same rules” ignores the biggest variable: revenue. The Dodgers aren’t operating under the same financial constraints as everyone else.

[Rob Monforto @robmondotcom]

@joshsreads Elite development got them the prospects. Elite TV revenue made those prospects expendable. That’s the part you keep leaving out.

[Rob Monforto @robmondotcom]

@jordanrulesTSP Guggenheim’s wealth isn’t the advantage. The Dodgers’ one-of-one TV deal is. No other team gets that revenue engine.

@alannarizzo @Dodgers If the Dodgers “barely gave up anything,” maybe ask why 29 other GMs didn’t think they had a better package. Elite development created the prospects. Elite revenue made them expendable.

@JMC9787 Finally

[Rob Monforto @robmondotcom]

@TomScibelli They could’ve matched the prospects. They couldn’t match the consequences. That’s the difference.

[Rob Monforto @robmondotcom]

@MattMcCarthy985 I don’t hate the Dodgers. I hate the fiction that every franchise has the same revenue engine and just chooses not to use it.

[Rob Monforto @robmondotcom]

@jordanrulesTSP Wealth isn’t the advantage. Revenue is. The Dodgers aren’t spending owner money. They’re spending TV money.

[Rob Monforto @robmondotcom]

@MarkZinno If the Dodgers aren’t operating with a unique financial advantage, name the other franchise with the same post-bankruptcy TV deal.

[Rob Monforto @robmondotcom]

@TyJohnsonNews Correct. It’s elite player development and a unique post-bankruptcy TV advantage. That’s why they don’t have to be right as often.

[Rob Monforto @robmondotcom]

@incarceratedbob You’re arguing against a point nobody made. The issue isn’t spending profits. It’s pretending every franchise has the same profit engine. The Dodgers don’t.

[Rob Monforto @robmondotcom]

@themouthmatusow Poker 101: Don’t lecture the table about skill when you’re the only one who got a post-bankruptcy reload no one else could get.

[Rob Monforto @robmondotcom]

@JohnStolnis Pretending it’s only player development is just as dishonest as pretending it’s only money. The Dodgers have both. They don’t have to be right as often because money lets them recover from mistakes no other team can afford. That’s the real advantage.

[Rob Monforto @robmondotcom]

@incarceratedbob The Mets are spending their owner’s money. The Dodgers are spending with structural advantages other teams don’t have. That’s the difference.

[Rob Monforto @robmondotcom]

@barstoolsports The Dodgers are MLB’s only team with a court-created TV revenue advantage. Stop pretending everyone is playing the same game.
