Message: [QUOTE="Newhouser, post: 3568590, member: 5155"] Dodgers have the code cracked - great drafts, great development, good eye for castoffs and deep pockets. Rays are a great story but I think their genius gets a little overplayed - I know its cool to see they robbed the Pirates but Meadows is a non-factor and wouldn't have cracked the Pirates line up with Polanco and frankly Glasnow isn't that much different than he was in Pittsburgh. Too wild to eat innings. Archer's injury skews the deal but I think the Rays get too much "smarter" credit. Case in point their manager pulling Snell and a team being so stubborn that they could not piece two hits in a row together all series, not trying to take advantage of the shift. What's the insanity definition of doing the same ineffective thing over and over. ONe of these low funded teams is going to go old school cardinals and steal some wins. [/QUOTE]
