NL West- Insanity!!

[Simulacrum]

Don't look now, but... every single team in the NL West is over .500!

And the D-Backs are in first place at 26-19!

Anyone else surprised that the NL West teams just keep winning?

[Dan Lambskin]

yes

[The Artful Dodger]

I'm surprised. Don't look now. The Dodgers are as hot as Nomar's bat right now.

Blah dodgers got lucky against the rockies.

2 guys thrown out at the plate. just bad coaching.

Rockies are winning the division

[SeovyeQuirsefron]

Last year, it wasn't until there was less than a week remaining in the regular season that it became clear that the division winner would not finish sub-.500.

So, yeah, I'm surprised. But it's early.

The good news for the division is that three teams -- the Rockies, D-Backs, and Dodgers appear to be loaded with excellent young talent.

The NL West will be a premier division soon if it hasn't already turned that corner.

That sounds dirty.

How much did wrveres pay you to post that?

How many NL West teams were above .500 at the end of last season?

Using the pythagorean theorum of baseball, it predicts the Dodgers winning the NL West with 98 wins...

[johnsamo]

Dodgers are a "who knows?" kind of team.... If Nomar. Penny and J.D. Drew stay healthy, and Gagne comes back, they can beat anybody.... Those are BIG BIG BIG ifs though. They've also got a core of young guys getting better...

ZERO chance of the dodgers winning 98 games..... ZERO!


and no i dont think the division is elite or anywhere close to it. i still think the padres are the best team in the division and the rockies are a hoax!
