Great tradition for over 100 years with this franchise and the profile of the team has always been pitching. The rotation led by Koufax and Drysdale will be dominant, its just a matter of if the Dodgers can generate enough runs and close out games. This franchise is beloved, and many fully expect them to compete for the pennant, but a mega battle with the rival Giants await.
Prediction: 2nd
