Glad that he’s going to finish his career as a Dodger!
Not a big Dodger guy but I am a Kershaw fan and I hope we see him fully healthy and get the old Kershaw on the mound at some point this season.

Don't care, Assistant coaches come and go.

BTW Ben Johnson didn't get the job because he wanted all the power.

That’s all I wanted to know, if you cared or not. I’m so glad Johnson will be with the Lions next year. But if he does end up going somewhere I’d rather it be to a team outside of the Lions division.

As of right now all the sports books have the Twins winning the division and the Tigers being 2nd. Dodgers and Braves are the only 2 teams projected to have 100+ wins according to sports books.

100+ wins is impressive, how often does the team with the most regular seasons wins end up WC champs?

Out of 119 World Series winners to date, 52 also had the best (or tied for the best) regular season record across MLB. Note what happens if you break it down by era though:

  • WS is the only playoff round (1903–68): the team with the best record won 38 out of 67

  • Divisional era, no wildcard (1969–93): the team with the best record won just 7 out of 25

  • Wildcard era (1995-present): the team with the best record won just 7 out of 33

Idk if you want to have the best record anymore. The better teams get screwed over because they have to sit an entire week after the season ends. Baseball is a sport about continuity and if you take a week off then you are already at a disadvantage before you even talk about who your opponent is.
