Before their early/mid September blip, Dodgers were on pace to win 112 games.
Basically, that's the club we ran into in NLCS. A 112 win club. Tough to keep up with a club like that playing in top form. Maybe they won't be in top form in WS, who knows, but they were in top form in NLCS.
Sure, Cubs didn't hit and bullpen was lousy, and Cubs could have made it closer with both or either, but was still a terrific and fun Cubs season.
