Hate the Yankees and Dodgers --- but I think one of them is going to win it.
So, I can't root against the Dodgers until the Yankees are out.
Such a conundrum.
Dodgers are no shoe in to make it to the dance.
Their lineup has holes.
Hitters 1-3 are the best in baseball, no doubt.
However, Kiki hitting 4th?
Muncy is a .228 career hitter
Edmond batting 8th?
If the Padres can score 4-5 runs a game, I like their chances.
It is interesting that Cleveland and Detroit have made it this far, both teams finished top 5 in league ERA, their hitting not so good.
Proves that pitching is much more important than hitting.
