It’s hard to look at a team like the Dodgers and not say World Series or bust. When you dominate the regular season the way they did — winning a franchise-record 111 wins and setting the fourth-best run differential in MLB history of +334 — you expect a lot from a team. At the very least, you expect them to get out of the first round of the playoffs.
But instead, the Dodgers were knocked out in four games in the NLDS, and into the record books went their historic 2022 season — and not in a good way.
