08:06 AM ET 02.29 | The Angels, with their blockbuster signings, are doing their part to steal some headlines in L.A. But Los Angeles will always belong the Dodgers, Manager Don Mattingly said Tuesday before his team's first full-squad workout of the spring. "You know, honestly, if you really want what I think about it, it's kind of like the Mets and the Yankees," Mattingly said of the two New York teams. "The Yankees are the team, no matter what the Mets do. ... I don't to want to badmouth the Angels at all. I know (owner) Mr. (Arte) Moreno does a great job down there in Anaheim and (Manager) Mike (Scioscia) does a great job and they've had a great run. But we're the Dodgers. It's not going to change."

You might be the Dodgers, but the Angels are way better in a tougher league.

The Angels aren't even in LA. Is it me, or does it look like Mattingly is toothless in this picture?

Exactly and unlike the Dodgers we don't have to go back to the Reagan administration to find their last title.

Even during the recent century long drought, Boston still loved the Sox -- No different in LA. As soon as McCourt is gone, the fans will be back

He's right. Just like New York will always belong to the Yankees. And just like LA will always belong to the Lakers. That doesn't mean the Dodgers will be better, or will draw more fans, but if the teams are equal the Dodgers will easily out-draw the Angels.
