Dodgers, huh?

Wow.

Must say, not much a fan of the watered down version, but I'll respect your busy-ness and let you go this week.

Maybe it'll spark more external conversation.

As good as Detroit is playing, and even considering how their young pitching has blossomed so far this season, I still see the White Sox as a better overall team. We'll see how detroit's record looks two weeks from now, after a brutal 12 game stretch against the Yankees and Red Sox at home, then on the road at the White Sox and Blue Jays...

The Dodgers have been nothing short of damned impressive lately, so no arguments about where they're sitting on the PT. Nomar looks like the Nomar of old, their pitchers are throwing like Dodgers' staffs usually throw, and some of their young kids are starting to really hit the ball (Aybar, Ramon Martinez and the kid they just called up, Kemp). They are going to be tough down the stretch...I worry about LA even more than I worry about the D-Backs at this point. As of today, every single team in the NL West is over .500. What a nice switch from last year, when we all thought that NOBODY was going to finish with a winning record,
