Don’t You Think Dodgers/Padres Look Old

[sikeston bulldog2]

Good morning.

First thing I noticed in LAD series is the Dodgers looked old. Even Ohtani. Now the SD series, I see the same thing. Old. Especially Tatis.

Then I realized these were heavy old veterans teams. LITTLE youth. I checked, sure enough, in March 2026, they were one two in oldest teams.

And I can see a huge difference in team attitudes. Youth verse old. It’s real.

Heres a new take- maybe youth prevents or recovers quick from injury, verse the old creaking vets.

Am I just too ……

Machado looks like the Tin Man in need of an oil can. (hope he doesn't kill us today)

It’s true. We got a lot younger this year. It shows. Long term free agent contracts turn into overpriced aging veterans. I like where we are today.

Correct. But don’t you agree something seems different. Not only with each team, but a difference between us and each team. The only thing I could come up was, was old. Not maybe a bad thing.

Interesting….

a board that once would desperately cling to worn out old guys as they strolled through their farewell tours, or chased personal stats…

is now embracing youth…

a refreshing change…

I’m not a fan of all these non team color uniforms.

Me neither. The White Sox were in red jerseys.

They are one of the oldest teams at over 30 a man.

Exactly. And the basic WS uni is nice, even a bit intimidating.

My research said oldest and second oldest, both over 30. It shows.

As much as I hate the Dodgers I agree. Their (usual) unis are top tier

All I see is Dodgers winning - Division, league, and WS championships.

30 yrs old is old. Right!! Nice one.

I still say they look something different than young swagger. Maybe these oldest teams look - professional -Ha.

I’m not saying old ain’t capable, but I am saying there seems to be a different flare- heavy vet verse no vet.

Just FYI, Tatis Jr. is only 27 years old. TBS, you have to wonder just how many of those $340 million were "injected" into his contract and not a result of overall talent, thus making Padres' future output prediction models based on fraudulent input.

I'd be livid if I were a Pads fan or front office exec as it appears the chickens are already coming home to roost.

Now watch him 3 home runs against us this afternoon. lol
