The Snakes are already dead, proclaimed SoSG Orel in yesterday's GT. But that doesn't make these Snakes any less potent, as they still wield the power to shape the NL West division race with a strong showing against the Dodgers in the desert.
Everyone says the Dodgers have a creampuff schedule down the stretch, however we are only 7-9 this season vs. both the Diamondbacks and our next opponent, the Giants (we've feasted on Colorado and San Diego). And here's the math: if we go 3-3 for the remainder of the season, Colorado (against the Phillies and Nationals, both of whom have also been eliminated from postseason contention) just needs to go 5-2 to tie (we have the tiebreaker, but still). So it ain't over 'til it's over.
Don't let a "dead" snake fool you, Dodgers!
And make sure you tune in for what might be Clayton Kershaw's last regular season start as a Dodger (cries).

Dead as a doorknob! That's right I said it!
(Also officially eliminated.)
@BNightengale
Bobby Evans, as anticipated, has been dismissed as #SFGiants GM, per @hankschulman. Ned Colletti is the favorite to replace him.
What will Jerry Hairston and Nomar Garciaparra do without Ned as a Dodgers All Access foil?
@hankschulman
Ned Colletti is NOT going to be returning to the #SFGIants organization to replace Bobby Evans, I'm told.
