The Los Angeles Dodgers have secured their eighth World Series title, marking a significant milestone in the franchise's history. The team's success can be attributed to a combination of factors, including their large payroll and analytics-driven approach to roster building. According to former World Series winner Chase Utley, the Dodgers' front office is one of the best in baseball, with President Andrew Friedman leading the way. The team's ability to find talent through free agency and within their own organization has been key to their success.

The Dodgers have also had to navigate injuries to their pitchers, but their depth and preparation have allowed them to adapt and thrive. With key players like Shohei Ohtani on long-term contracts, the team is well-positioned for continued success in the future. As baseball writer David Lengel notes, "They're built for success... They're exciting. Their entire line-up has the ability to hit a home run and they play great defense."
