If the Dodgers win every single one of their remaining games, they will win the division. I mean, I'm no math whiz, but I'm doing a bunch of these simulations here using a pair of dice, and I think Torre may be right.Steve Saxhttps://www.blogger.com/profile/00930320282262607468noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-36360371.post-89114097544885707752008-09-08T10:08:00.000-07:002008-09-08T10:08:00.000-07:00Only thing I worry about with the upcoming schedul...Only thing I worry about with the upcoming schedule is that the Dodgers ALWAYS play down to the level of their opponents. Look at that Nationals series - we should have beat them up. Yet, we come back and play great against the then first place D-backs. I don't think that I would necessarily want a different schedule to end the year, but I am a little cautious. Hopefully the playoff race intensity will continue into the next 18 games.Alex Corahttps://www.blogger.com/profile/12525698665504654841noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-36360371.post-9692053104601417582008-09-08T09:45:00.000-07:002008-09-08T09:45:00.000-07:00Joe Torre: "one of the greatest thinkers of our ti...Joe Torre: "one of the greatest thinkers of our time"<BR/><BR/>You're right, Eric.
