00:00All right, let's start off our National League West preview concludes with a discussion on
00:11the Dodgers and the National League West.
00:14Let's start off with their season win total, which is as high as I can ever remember a
00:17season win total being.
00:20Let's go buy or sell George the Dodgers will win 110 games or more.
00:26I should say this season because the landing on 110 is definitely a sell.
00:30So let's say 110 or more this season.
00:33So 110 and 52 or better.
00:37Yeah, there are some who believe the Dodgers will set the record this year, right?
00:40Was it 117 wins in a season sets the record?
00:45They certainly can.
00:46All right, you and I already went over that.
00:47I mean, that pitching staff, they could throw up there with eight, nine stars.
00:51So if they have a rash of injuries like they had last year, they'll be just fine here.
00:55The offense should cook, they can hit.
00:58I think they're certainly capable.
00:59I think it could happen here.
01:01I also think in September, though, once they get ready for the playoffs, wins won't be
01:05as important for them.
01:06All right.
01:07I think they win the division pretty easily.
01:08They'll have the number one seed here.
01:10It's all about October winning another World Series here.
01:12So I'm going to sell this.
01:14All right.
01:15I have taken the over 103 and a half.
01:17So I guess I'm banking that they'll win between 104 and 109 games this season for the Dodgers
01:23here.
01:24Winning 110 stuff.
01:25You're winning every series, two of every three.
01:27All right.
01:28So I'm going to say I'll take the under here, under 110, sort of just saying I think I win
01:33a ton of games, but not 110, 111.
01:36No.
01:37Yeah.
01:38I'll take the over.
01:39I would bet over if I had to on the Dodgers.
01:42I don't play in the lower or higher markets ever.
01:45I'm more of a middle market guy when it comes to this stuff.
01:49But I think that I will go over here.
01:53I'll go with like 111, 112 games.
01:55I could see that easily in 50.
01:57You know, the only problem is what happens in September.
02:00But I think the difference this year is that, look, you could have Otani at the end of the
02:04season.
02:05You could have Kershaw at the end of the season.
02:07And usually you get them at the beginning of the season.
02:09So I think their late season surge could be legit.
02:12And I will buy.
02:13I will buy this for the Dodgers this season, winning 110 games or more.
02:17All right.
02:18Now, in the National League West, we certainly have a minimum of three teams that are going
02:22to fight it out to make the postseason.
02:24We have the Dodgers, who would seem to be a postseason lock.
02:26You have the Diamondbacks.
02:27You have the Padres.
02:29And maybe you feel the Giants could potentially make the postseason too.
02:32Rockies are not going to make it.
02:33George, buy or sell, three National League West teams will make the postseason this year.
02:40Breaking news from Craig Nish.
02:41Rockies not making the playoffs.
02:42Oh, yeah.
02:43The Rockies might lose 110-plus.
02:44They're certainly not making the playoffs there.
02:45All right.
02:46Let's just count the National League Central.
02:52I think the only team to make the playoffs there is whoever wins that division, Cubs,
02:56Reds, whoever it might be there.
02:57All right.
02:58So we got three wildcard teams, Braves, Phillies, Mets.
03:02All right.
03:03I think they'll be in contention, want to win with division.
03:07Then you go to the West here and you go, I don't think the Giants make it either, by
03:12the way.
03:14Dodgers win with division, Diamondbacks, and the Padres.
03:18So Diamondbacks, Padres, let's give the division to the Phillies, Mets, Braves.
03:24One doesn't make it.
03:25All right.
03:26I'm going to buy this.
03:27I'm going to buy it.
03:28I'm in on Arizona.
03:29I think they're one of the teams.
03:30San Diego, I like San Diego.
03:31I do worry if they'll make additions during the season with the ownership issues here
03:37that they need to make.
03:38I also wonder if they'll trade Dylan Cease.
03:40I wonder if they'll trade Michael King.
03:41I said earlier, Michael King, free agent.
03:43They may not want to pay him what his going rate's going to be, and they may not want
03:46to lose him for nothing, especially since they acquired him in the Juan Soto trade,
03:49one of the players from the Yankees there.
03:51So I'm going to buy this, though.
03:53All right.
03:54I'll say that I guess even the Braves, because they don't have a corner, they don't have
03:57Strider to start the season.
03:59Maybe Sales, not the sale he was from last year.
04:03I think we heard of Renaldo Lopez.
04:04His velocity is down as well.
04:05So maybe he has an injury there that we don't know about.
04:07This is what we heard.
04:08I don't know for sure.
04:09All right.
04:11I don't want anybody to go bananas on that.
04:12So I'm going to buy.
04:13I'm going to say yes, three teams won't make it from the National League West.
