How does one franchise produce five consecutive Rookie of the Year award winners?

Regardless of the sport, what are the odds of that happening?
Los Angeles Dodgers
1992: Eric Karros
1993: Mike Piazza
1994: Raul Mondesi
1995: Hideo Nomo
1996: Todd Hollandsworth
They managed to win only one division title in the 90’s (1995).

Nomo probably should have been ineligible

The Dodgers are the Georgia Bulldogs of baseball

The Dodgers traditionally had a great farm system. They had another run of about 4-5 ROYs in the late 70s / early 80s too including Fernando Valenzuela, Steve Sax, etc

My family had season tix back in those days. I used to live and die with those teams in my young days 
They were so loaded, but would always choke. The worst was 96, when all they had to do was win one game in the final weekend against the Padres to win the division.

Dodgers have 25% of ROY in the National League since it began in 1947 starting with Jackie Robinson.
Great farm system that was the envy of all other clubs, should have more titles.

Chipper Jones should have won in 95

Well, two of the five weren’t even really all that good. Nomo and Hollandsworth.

Yep, got screwed.

Dodgers almost had another little mini string of winners this decade....Seager, Bellinger, and then Buehler finished third behind two generational bat talents

Im 1968, they also had what is considered to be the greatest draft of any professional team ever - six all stars and a few role players.

Won the big prize instead. Solid consolation.

Chipper should have won it in 1995. Sports media had a love affair with Nomo because he was one of the first Japanese players.

votet bias toward certain teams

The Yankees and Dodgers have underperformed lately with the Braves close behind.

Looks like the dodgers are set for the next several years if you listen to MLB Network. They have one of the highest payrolls in ML history.
I think everyone expects another WS run this season for sure barring injuries.
I hate the Dodgers btw

Ohio State has had the defensive rookie of the year 4 of the last 5 years.
Wild stat. Only 1 title to show for it.
