    I think they’re a step below, this weekend’s performance notwithstanding. Fangraphs has them a good bit behind the Brewers in both division and playoffs odds, which I think matches the on-paper talent disparity between the two.

    props to nscapi, btw, for mentioning max kepler all offseason as a potential trade target due to possible breakout. he’s been great. the twins as a whole have been absurd, tho, so maybe they weren’t too willing to deal anyone, thinking they’d have a solid team.

    Barring injuries to LAD, hard to see anyone really challenge them.

    Cubs probably have the best chance in a series. Lester, Hamels, Quintana, Hendricks is probably the best anyone can matchup with LA's SP's in Kershaw, Buehler, Ryu and Hill. Cubs offense is pretty good too. But yeah, they're far and away the best in the NL. Every other NL contender is flawed.

    they extented Max which tells you the price in a trade would have been a steep one

    Bad news for other teams. The Phillies needed to get rid of him anyways, so this is a favor for them.

    Sucks for the woman assaulted, though. Thoughts to her.

    So was that the stupid money they been talking about. Guessing cutch plays center or Kingery. Using Nick Williams some. This still has to be a huge distraction for the team.

    Yeah all the faillies are calling for his release. Wonder how they would react if Harper and his contract got arrested.

    If they could nullify his contract, I’d bet they’d be down to jettison him.
