You were the one that said we were "denied" a dynasty. We weren't denied anything we had one.
Giants are a fluke (or may been doing some sketchy stuff). Pretty much all of their position players had career years, and pretty much all of them did it at advanced ages, after they had seen significant decline in their skillset in years prior. That isn't sustainable. I highly doubt it's gonna happen again (or they'll get caught if they were indeed cheating).
According to FanGraphs Playoff Odds, the Braves have the 3rd highest odds to win the world series, tied with the Astros and behind the Dodgers and Blue Jays.
I am forever grateful to them for stopping the Dodgers division win streak. Looks like our run of 14 is safe awhile longer
Why are the Astros odds higher? They get Verlander back, but McCullers is hurt and they lost Correa. I haven't followed their offseason moves - did they add a bunch of talent?
Still gotta worry about the playoff appearance streak.
With the new playoff format I doubt the Dodgers miss the playoffs for awhile.
