Now the Dodgers and their "fans" can do what they did with Gagme: buy into a movement and still fail to watch the game as they wear their dreadlocks and bandannas, whilst hitting the beach ball around, cheering when the diamond vision shouts "LETS GET LOUD FOR YOUR DODGERS!" and pounding the nachos and faggerdogs.
Truth of the matter is...the Dodgers have no pitching and still won't make the playoffs.<!--QuoteEnd--><!--QuoteEEnd-->
I think they will. Kemp, Loney, Martin, and Ethier can only improve. Add in a full year of Manny, a full year of Furcal, and Hudson, that's a pretty insane lineup. It's not going to take much to win that division. The Padres and Rockies don't have a chance. The Giants are improved and they'll hang in there, but I still can't predict more than 80 wins. The Dbacks are just incredibly inconsistent and strike out more than Screech did with Lisa Turtle.

The division's weakness is their only hope though. There's no way they'd finish better than 4th in the NL East and <b>5th in AL East</b>.
I think Manny going to LA hurts the Giants more than it helps the Dodgers. He would have <i>made </i>the Giants, and had a loooot bigger impact. Mind you, I think he'll go along way in straightening out dumbass Kemp.

4th, not 5th. The Blue Jays are going to be awful this year. You could also make a fair argument that would be the same case for any of the NL teams.

Good point. The NL East is the only respectable division, outside of the Nats.

I hate my pretentious sounding username too.
