The Dodgers are paper lions. They should be playing better than they are, but that was the case last year, and they became the best team in the second half. I wouldn't necessarily count on that to happen this year. I don't think Mattingly is the right manager for that situation. The team has too much drama.

The Giants on the other hand are proven winners, who have now overachieved twice recently to win championships. They are very much like the Cardinals of the past ten years. They may not take themselves seriously, but they take the game seriously.
