When you are as committed as any team in history as the Yankees were a quarter of a century ago and these Dodgers are now it is hard to mute the outside noise.

The Dodgers preseason over/under total is currently sitting at 103.5 wins, which would be the highest since the 1999 Yankees.

The most interesting player in the majors is, for 2024, a $2 million designated hitter.

Sure, Mike Hazen was thinking about it. How could he not? The Diamondbacks general manager described Shohei Ohtani as the superstar of all superstars.

And when he makes his first Dodgers start, Yoshinobu Yamamoto will be beginning a contract that over the next 12 years is guaranteed for $325 million or $1 million more than Gerrit Coles previous record.

Andrew Friedman offers no disguise. He agrees with the designation of Shohei Ohtani as his white whale and is kind enough to grimace only slightly when asked about harpooning him after a decade-plus pursuit.

It doesnt take any great metric analysis to know the Dodgers deserve the top spot.

Dodgers first baseman Freddie Freeman and wife Chelsea enjoyed a star-studded date night Sunday at the 2024 Golden Globes, where they made an unexpected cameo in Taylor Swift snaps.

We already have a front-runner for the biggest story of 2024, but why dont we close out 2023 with the rest of a top 10.
