    Fade the Dodgers from the middle of the August onwards

    This team is going to revert back to the inconsistent to terrible team it was for the first 2 months of the season.

    Maybe you're right, they only won 7 of their last 10. They will never catch the D'backs blistering 53% win mark and no team from the National League West has a shot at the Wild Card. That's why.

    Im a Rockies fan and loved the Dodgers scuffling for three months but let's be realistic, if they are clicking they are impossible to stop. Only hope is that Puig becomes normal, something he has been showing the past week

    You do realize this thread will be bumped when they post a 19-9 record in August right?

    I dont know man they are only going to get better and you better believe they will pick up a player or 2 to bolster that roster.

    However its a tough division and the D-Backs will give them a good fight.

    could happen, but it's a lot less likely.

    if the Utley trade happens they won't miss the playoffs

    If anything its the blue jays that are going to collapse, just like every Toronto team does.

    Looking forward to profiting off yet another D-Backs victory in a Kershaw start.

    grienke has been dealing lately. kershaw, lowest era. nolasco is pretty good. even crapuano had a good game the other day. and the lineup has tons of good hitters in a row, so every inning is a pain in the ass. also they have lots of money and will add some relievers.

    Puig's average is dropping by the day, AGon is good for some dingers and a .300 average, and Hanley Ramirez is a beast. The rest of the lineup is no different than any other decent NL team.

    The thing is the Dodgers have been over valued all year. Even if they play .500, you got yourself a profit. This is not a bad idea at all.

    Yup.


    If you ask me, the yankees have a ton of REAL (not that throwing darts at a longshot nonsense) value for the next few weeks. Traditionally a 2nd half team getting its sluggers back over the next month, try to hop on them before they start demanding ridiculous -190 style lines again.

    Took batting practice the other day. Still can't run yet. He says he will be back before September. The reality is his hamstrings are shot and now an ankle injury. His body can't hold up...shame.

    They key is and has been Hanley. Who knows if that shoulder injury screwed anything up in his swing. He's available for pinch hit duties.

    Not really. Can you even read? The thread was for the middle of August onwards. August 9th doesn't count as "middle of August." Can't wait for Kemp to come back.



    Ideally, Puig gets hurt because I don't like that piece of trash. But we don't even need that.

    took about 2 months longer than I expected, but we've finally arrived at fade city.

    To be fair, the signs were already there in August. Look at their record since the 20th of that month.
