Even winning two World Series titles — and delivering in some clutch moments along the way — doesn’t guarantee a roster spot with the Dodgers anymore.

A few years later, Jerry DiPoto, who was GM of the Mariners for the trade, called it the worst deal he ever made.

“Chris Taylor was a mostly an unknown player when the Dodgers acquired him in a deal for their former top prospect Zach Lee. He went on to make an All-Star team, win two World Series rings, and earn more than $70 Million. Chris Taylor is an amazing baseball success story,” Doug McKain of Dodgers Nation wrote on X, formerly Twitter.
