Dodgers 30 games over .500

Post by sikeston bulldog2 »

Good morning.

Have we ever been thirty games over? The dodgers are 29 over with a weekend series with Red Sox.

I thread this because thirty over is near a 100 wins. Also, because I can’t fathom 30 over. I fot a friend, one of a few, big dodger fan. So that is where my interest lies. Not me.

We reached nine over twice. It was a fairly big deal here. So thirty over would be exhilarating. Yet we sit one under.

Just a conversation thread.

Unlimited payroll well run front office and fantastic draft and development system make for a deadly combo

But the players they buy must perform. Not always the case. What makes them this way yearly. Manager? Players? Team chemistry ?

It would be hard to find something to complain about.

If the Tigers deal him, then they want him and can likely make the best offer too

LOL...you can miss on draft picks when your ownership fills the void. Imagine how much opening the purse could help the Cardinals. Alas we're saddled with the whole rebuild bullshi.

They have 5 OFers in the top 100 prospects, 3 of which are top 20 prospects, and only have 1 OF spot that’s really an “open” spot going forward which is Teoscar Hernandez. So yes they could offer 1 or 2 of those OFers and pitching and get Skubal. If the Dodgers want Skubal they will get him. Brewers could get desperate and try to get him, but I think it’s 99% certain he won’t resign with them.
