Also this probably seals the avatar bet win for bewbies, unless Danny Duffy can inflate his FIP above 4.68 by year's end.

I am starting to believe I might see the Dodgers win 100 games.

Thanks, can't wait to congratulate you guys on 29 consecutive years without a Word Series appearance.
One of these days the Dodgers will fall rear end-backwards into a World Series. Probably not the same year they win the most games in the NL because baseball.

2. The Giants will be good again, since this team is well run and has plenty of money. The farm system is underrated but lacks impact prospects since they haven't picked in the top half of the draft in some time. They've drafted excellently when they've had early picks (Lincecum, Bumgarner, Posey) and OK when they've had later ones (Panik, Arroyo).
Yeah they really are at a disadvantage not having a bunch of high draft picks the last decade like the Dodgers.

Giants respond to report that their collapse this season was caused by Mark Melancon changing the bullpen's warmup time.

Personally I'm more a fan of the "everyone was brought together by our mutual hatred of Angel Pagan" theory for why the Giants are garbage now.

I was looking into back to back RoY performances from the same team, didn't think it happened much, but I was wrong.

1992: Eric Karros LAD
1993: Mike Piazza LAD
1994: Raul Mondesi LAD
1995: Hideo Nomo LAD
1996: Todd Hollandsworth LAD

:stare:
And the Dodgers teams with those players won a sum total of ONE (1) postseason game during their tenure with the club. Even then, it was only Nomo on that team and he was old and had returned after free agency. Also didn't make the postseason roster.

Dodgers also have more Cy Young Awards than any other team by a healthy margin (12 vs three teams tied at 7). Pitching and prospects.
