And yet no one is talking about it. Hell, even here in the Bay Area things have been all Warriors until this week. And I'm OKAY with that.

Best to keep flying under the radar and not to be noticed.

Yup.

While not getting any in-season love is frustrating, it really is the best way to go into the post-season.

Going into the post-season as the prohibitive favorites can lead to sloppy play and loss of concentration.

I am sure if I tried real hard and did hours of research, I could come up with a recent example of this.

Dodgers have gone 8-2 in the last ten.

And dropped a game further behind the Giants in that time.

The team with the best record in baseball almost never wins the WS. Read it somewhere and makes sense to me. Too lazy to back up with data of course.

Meh, who needs data?

Technically, they are all big leaguers right now. Now one can argue a few of them don't belong in the big leagues . . .

Yup, anybody on the 40-man is a 'major leaguer'.

And they get Ryu and McCarthy back soon

Ryu has already had a couple of set backs during this rehab so things aren't going quite as planned.

Chubs 4-6 last ten, Gs 9-1.
