The Dodgers, as usual, are stacked, but are the Diamondbacks and Rockies playoff teams once again? The Giants decided against a rebuild and added talent, but, for the second straight year, face a big chunk of the season without Madison Bumgarner. The Padres went big to get Eric Hosmer, but their best days — and best talent — still seem to be a couple of years away. Kudos to them for trying, of course.
Our Previews:
- Los Angeles Dodgers
- Arizona Diamondbacks
- San Francisco Giants (our defense: we wrote it before Bumgarner got hurt)
- Colorado Rockies
- San Diego Padres
