    It's that time druff

    Most important series of the season. 100 on series, 100 on the sweep.

    Series Todgers -140

    That should lure him out into the open.

    It's a standing bet.

    2 more of these series before the year is over.

    Actually think Dodgers will win 2 of 3 here.

    not so lately

    Kendrick, Turner, Grandal & Segedin are righties doing well now v lefties;

    Seager & Gonzales are okay v Lefites but much better v righties...

    while Pedersen & Utley are overmatched

    but there are not so many quality lefties

    Dodgers are hitting a lot lately, especially the longball.

    Offense won't be the problem this year.

    Much like the Sawks, the limiting factor will be pitching.

    Kazmir to the DL now. He wasn't great, but he ate innings and was able to win games because he got good run support.

    It's getting pretty damn thin on that staff. Rich Hill is finally going to pitch his first game for the Dodgers.

    It's getting so bad that they might start Anderson on Thursday, despite his two absolutely horrible outings following his return from the long term DL. Suicide King can only hope.

    If Kershaw and Hill are both healthy for the playoffs (which let's face it, the Dodgers are making), they have a shot at winning the whole thing. Otherwise it's probably game over.

    On a side note, amazingly the Rockies aren't the worst pitching team this year. The Reds and D-Backs have given up more runs than Colorado. That's pretty sad.

    It must be awful being a D-Backs fan. That team's pitching was horrendous last year. They attempted to overhaul it for 2016, and it actually got worse. 705 runs allowed in 126 games. Ouch.

    Since the All Star break, Dodgers are hitting .283 (1st in NL), 53 HR (2nd in NL), and scored 194 runs (2nd behind Colorado).

    Giants are tied for last in NL in HR since the break, and 2nd to last in runs scored.

    Oh, the essays I can write about that one.

    I'll PM you.

    You're lucky that Moore transformed himself from failpitcher to pseudo Cy Young candidate tonight.

    The Sawks Todgers comparison is okay except the pitching difference of fail starters vs fail relief.

    Bad relief really gets the nod for fail in playoffs. The Sawks starters really have been on a serious upswing.

    As an aside, the trend and the future of pitching will drift toward the model of an expanded staff of relievers with ever decreasing importance of starting pitching. The "poor man's Dodgers" (Royals) rewrote the book for the slow kids.

    Do not infer that the Dodgers offense compares in any way to the Sawks. The comparison that the offense is a the teams relative strength as opposed to pitching works.

    A straight up comparison of offense and position defense between Sawks and Dodgers would be a humbling and ludicrous exercise.

    Manage that optimism. If you can't I will.

    Peace.
