The Dodgers can eclipse the 2001 Seattle Mariners record of 116 victories by winning 31 of their last 39 games, but they shouldn’t even try.
Andrew Heaney struck out 10 batters as the Dodgers blew out the Milwaukee Brewers 12-6 on Wednesday at Dodger Stadium.They should also blow off any heated pursuit of the Dodgers’ franchise record of 106 wins, set in 2019 and 2021. They will probably stroll there anyway because they need to go just 20-19, but it should not be a priority.
After all, in his infamous utterance this spring, manager Dave Roberts didn’t guarantee record-setting victories, he guaranteed a World Series championship. Glad he agrees. Hope the philosophy sticks as the Dodgers will plow through a final month against enough inferior competition that they could be tempted to chase the fool’s gold.“I know it,” said Roberts. “But it’s not something I’m spending a lot of time thinking about.”
This Dodgers team is better than those 2017 Dodgers. This is arguably the best regular-season team the Dodgers have fielded in more than 50 years. Everyone knows it won’t be Craig Kimbrel. Even Roberts admitted it wasn’t guaranteed to be Kimbrel when I asked him if he knew who would close games in October.
“I think we’re pretty certain that with where the calendar is at, we can get them all healthy,” said Roberts. “Now it’s ... also feeling confident in the performance. That takes some time. But those guys are easy to bet on.”
