The Dodgers had a disappointing offseason. If you spent any amount of time on Dodgers’ Twitter or reading the sport’s section of the LA Times, you were exposed to plenty of disillusioned and disappointed fans and writers who were frustrated with the Dodgers’ front office.

In direct contrast, one major market team that really went for it and spent some “stupid money” was the Philidelphia Phillies.

There were only a handful of players that would have really fit the Dodgers’ roster well. The Phillies arguably acquired the best five of that group of free agents that could have and should have ended up in LA for 2019.

In this article, I’ll go move by move and lay out why the Dodgers should have acquired each of the five major players the Phillies brought to their team: Jean Segura, Andrew McCutchen, J.T. Realmuto, David Robertson, and of course Bryce Harper.
