The Dodgers have won the NL West in 2016, which doesn’t sound all that remarkable for the team with the highest payroll in baseball, but taking into consideration where they were just two months ago, it’s absolutely ridiculous.
Me? I honestly never saw this coming, much less it coming this easily. Hell, I basically completely checked out in the middle of July.
Being free of any expectations for the rest of the season is rather nice, honestly.
These Dodgers rallied without Clayton Kershaw and are now as close to full strength as they’ve been all season and are uncoincidentally playing their best baseball of the season in September.
