With the many injuries facing the Los Angeles Dodgers and their sad showing as of late, they are four games under .500. This is a team that wasn’t under .500 past April 27 of last season on their way to the National League title. This year’s slow start, however, not only makes the rest of the teams in the NL West more optimistic, but also helps the Colorado Rockies get closer to contending for the title.
What about the rest of the division? The Arizona Diamondbacks have dominated with their 23-11 record and haven’t dropped from first yet.
