With their victory over the San Francisco Giants this week, the Los Angeles Dodgers became the first team to reach 20 wins this season. If the past three years are any indication, they should win the World Series in the fall, as the first team to that benchmark has done so.
The Dodgers boast one of the league’s deepest and most talented offenses, led by early MVP favorite and triple crown leader Cody Bellinger, who seems to be in the midst of a breakout into superstardom. Additionally, the team’s pitching staff has stabilized lately thanks to the returns of starters Clayton Kershaw, Rich Hill and Hyun-Jin Ryu from injury.
