Los Angeles Dodgers president of baseball operations Andrew Friedman keeps on hitting home runs when it comes to having great players in the club's farm system.

Friedman not only makes sure that the 40-man roster is squared away, but also wants to have enough players in the team's minor leagues develop in due time.

It's not going to be a good thing for the other 30 MLB clubs to realize that the Dodgers' farm system is getting high grades right now. But it is, according to Keith Law of The Athletic.

In a new article for the outlet, Law ranked all MLB teams' farm systems. Law put the Dodgers at the No. 2 spot overall and in the Tier 1 level of teams when reviewing what their minor leagues look like at this time.

"I take no pleasure in reporting this, but the Dodgers continue to boast one of the best farm systems in baseball -- and I could make an argument for them as No. 1, although the Freddy Peralta trade locked the Brewers into that spot for me," Law wrote.

"The Dodgers are the paragon of hitter development, with a clear idea of who they believe they can help and processes that make it happen once they acquire the player, whether it’s via the draft, a trade or international signing," Law continued.

"Kendall George is not a top 100 prospect, but they took George, an 80 runner (on the 20-80 scouting scale) with an awful swing and no power, and fixed the swing to the point where he is now a viable prospect -- maybe a Chandler Simpson type (it’s the obvious comparison), maybe even a little better," Law wrote.

"This seemed like such an unlikely proposition a year ago, but the Dodgers are the best at what they do," Law continued.

"Fans of other teams can complain all day about the money the team spends on the major-league roster, but the Dodgers do back it up with the old-school stuff that you should respect, even if you don’t like it: They scout, heavily, and they do individual development work with their players — especially hitters — that is the best in the sport."

For years, the Dodgers have been known as a team that dips deep into the baseball waters of countries where baseball is king.

Old-school Dodgers fans can remember players like the late pitcher Fernando Valenzuela and Albert Pujols, who played one season for Los Angeles, among the international players to wear Dodger blue.

Getting young players in the farm system right now allows the Dodgers time to let them grow up, not only from a maturity standpoint but also in their playing styles.

There is no doubt some of those minor-league players will one day take the field at Dodger Stadium and look to add their names to the hall of great Dodgers players over the decades.

Still, the fact that the Los Angeles farm system is graded so highly at this point should be good news for Dodgers fans all over the world.

The Dodgers are not just sitting on their laurels after two straight World Series titles. They want more, and these players in their minor-league system are the lynchpin to future success in the major leagues.
