Well, back to the LAD for a moment. 3 losses in a row after winning 4, overall 19 losses out of 24, not the ideal way to tune up for the postseason, though still 16 days away for the NL. Assuming that the WS is a possibility, home field in jeopardy to the Indians. With D-backs losing and sliding, magic number is 2, the Dodgers literally backing into the division title.  

Two views on Dodgers' manager Dave Roberts: 1) he is a genius for holding postseason tryouts and showing the front office who is a definitive "no" by playing them all the time, or, 2) he's not really that good of a manager ie. repeatedly playing guys who are struggling terribly. thinking they will snap out of it. 

As for the Jays, I read this morning that Estrada is allegedly extended one more year? So, you have Estrada, Happ, Stroman, Sanchez, and ? for next year's rotation. They should do what the LAD did, sign 2 or 3 guys, and be better equipped to deal with injuries.
