Los Angeles Times columnist and frequent ESPN "Around the Horn" hot take machine Bill Plaschke is ready to declare that there's "no question" the Los Angeles Dodgers will defeat the San Francisco Giants in the National League Divisional Series — before we even know if the Dodgers will be playing in that series.
To be fair to Plaschke, who appeared on KNBR's "Murph & Mac" show Wednesday morning, he did couch his grand proclamation to some extent.
"If the Dodgers can get by the Cardinals [Wednesday night] I think they go unscathed to the World Series championship,” he said.
