Well, Art, they should at least make it to the show.
I'll include the Nationals with them to a degree - one of these teams, if not both, should have at least made the WS over these past 5 years. Nobody expects them to play only 11 games. But I do expect Kershaw to pitch like an ace, I expect Puig to not be a distraction and play the game, etc. Until they show they can do it, I won't ever pick them, regardless of how many regular season games they win. Means nothing if you can't do it when it really counts.
Dodgers manager Dave Roberts with a Royal Oak Offshore Diver
I am not much of a Dodgers fan, but I am a very big Dave Roberts fan. The Dodgers might actually have a chance of finally meeting some expectations with this guy as coach. Clearly, a man of great taste. ...
Fingers crossed that Roberts steers the boys in blue to a championship
Anyway I am surprised that he is not wearing a chronograph but then again he's got a coaching staff and probably somebody designated to do all the timing stuff. Still AP should send him the new ROC.
Dave is very grounded and knows what it takes.
Many Bostonians - myself included - will always credit Dave Roberts with a major role in the curse breaking 2004 World Series Championship.
The way the Dodgers are performing now, they won't . . .
. . . be meeting expectations if they end up playing in more than eleven postseason games. I can't remember any pro team this dominant over the course of a season. '85 Bears, maybe. Even the Bulls with MJ didn't have this kind of mojo. Art

Well, this is the minor leagues next to an Audemars Piguet ;-)
Sorry, but I own both and this is an indisputable fact for me.
Lots of good action at TripleA
Double and Single too. How about the Cape Cod league? Great place to catch a game.
