We are in SOLE possession of first place by half a game, while the Cubs are in a virtual tie with the Punky Brewsters! Dodgers and Cubs both 7-3 in their last 10 while Arizona and Milwaukee are 5-5. It's put up or shut up time fellas, and those Fenway Chowda-Heads are HOT over the Yanks right now.
Play ball!!!

It's ours to lose at this point and although we are a solid team, our hot-and-cold spells are not exactly confidence-builders. What we do have now is deep post-season experience and a band of brothers hungry to win it all. The Rockies and Giants might hit short hot streaks before the season is through, but the way the Dodgers' momentum has been building, I don't expect too much trouble. The NL West may not inspire a lot of fear from other ballclubs, but we are competitive. In the NL East it's a mashup of teams not likely to bring much of a threat to either the Cubs or Dodgers.
I see the Red Sox running through everybody, including the Yankees and defending champion Astros, on their way to the WS. Will they meet the Dodgers or Cubs? Only thing we know for sure: Once the World Series is here, we'll be too caught-up in the Lakers pre-season to care!

Asked if the Dodgers would re-sign Machado, Zaidi demurred.
"Let's have him at least show up in a Dodger uniform before we start asking those questions," he said. "We hope he plays well and creates a good market for himself. We're not worried about what happens past 2018."
His contract is up, so the Dodgers will have to re-sign him. Now we need our pitching staff to step up.
