They’ll stay in contention because of that depth. Along with being able to withstand most injuries, they have the ability, if they choose, to trade for basically anyone that could become available. They have the money, they have the prospects. It’s just a matter of finding the right deal. I also expect them to win the division because most of the guys that are struggling aren’t the young question marks, but rather the consistent vets (Adrian Gonzalez, Howie Kendrick, Justin Turner). If Joc Pederson/Corey Seager/Trayce Thompson keep crushing the ball and the other guys get their act together, their offense should do a complete 180. — Dodgers Way

The Dodgers’ biggest strength has to be their depth. Despite being down four starters for most of the year (Brandon McCarthy, Hyun-jin Ryu, Brett Anderson, Mike Bolsinger), their pitching has stayed afloat. Bolsinger’s back, and Ryu is expected back soon. Their depth in the majors has gotten them through injuries and allowed them to tinker and try to find the best combination. Baseball is a long season, and when guys start missing games and getting hurt, there’s only one team I trust to still put out quality players at any position.
