The Los Angeles Dodger walked away with a lot more than just a World Series win over the New York Yankees as the amount paid to each player has been announced.
The Dodgers took out the Yankees in 5 games in a great series between two powerhouses but New York was clearly out numbered as they were only able to win 1 game.

The total postseason pool for the 2024 MLB World Series was a record breaking $129.1 million which was split between the Yankees and Dodgers.
This is an incredible amount of money no matter if you won or lost as each player walked away with more than $300,000 for making it all the way to the World Series.
One fans commented on Nightengale's post stating that he thinks it would be a good idea for the MLB to follow the same rules as the PGA and have the second place team get have the earnings of the World Series winner.
I think the payout should be more like PGA FedEx Cup payouts are - where the Champion gets $477,440.70 and 2nd place gets half that amount ($223,720.35). Thanks for the info, very much appreciated.
