6. I don't bet, even informally, but when we saw Arizona

Run all over SF like the Road Runner, everyone in NorCal figured them to be the most athletic team in baseball, and on a tear. One thing matters most in post-season, and that’s momentum.

I’m actually fascinated by Bruce Bochy going head to head against Dusty Baker.

Bochy saw what was coming in SF … nobody playing the same position two days in a row, and I don’t blame him for leaving and taking a year off. You want “Angels in the Outfield”? Farhan and the now-banished Gabe Kapler had a catcher in the outfield twice that I noticed, with very predictable results.
