The bet was JD vs JT, one year vs three year contract. JD's numbers are actually a little better overall, but they're pretty close. Dodgers keeping 2024 payroll as lean as possible for Ohtani. JT was an unfortunate cut since he was looking for three years. He'll back in the organization eventually I believe.
They brought up Miggy who didn't get it done. Supposed to have Lux too. Jt was injured and ineffective for two years. Dodgers couldn't get over the hump. So if you can't do it with aging vets you go cheaper and younger.
