Its all the Dodgers.

Problem is that the Dodgers:
1)Play poorly on the road.
2)They finish on the road against the team that would love to knock them out of it(Giants.)
3)They have to play the Mets(on the road) 4 times this week.
4)They still play the Padres 4 times(atleast those are at home,but they have not stood up to this team like they need to do.)
I think the Padres may win the division,and the Dodgers may get the Wildcard.The Dodgers are no sure thing (at all) to make the post.They have struggled severely to score in other people's yard.They have struggled against the 3 other teams in the league with decent records(St. Louis,Mets,and San Diego.)They play good teams 8 times in the next 2 weeks.I hope it doesn't result in massive wounds.They need to step it up against the good teams.They can beat Cincy,Colorado,Arizona,and even the Giants,but so far not the Padres or the Mets.They need to do this.
