The Dodgers are surefire postseason contenders. Their record is the third best in the NL and fourth best in MLB. They're first in their division with a 5.5 game lead on the second place Giants. No one else looks like they have a chance at threatening LA. Heck, the Giants don't particularly seem as though they can threaten the division leaders.
With Clayton Kershaw and Zack Greinke at the top of their rotation and Kenley Jansen their closer it comes as no surprise the Dodgers' pitching staff is among the best in baseball. Their 12.5 fWAR is tied with the Cardinals for second best in baseball.
