| |  | LA DODGERS: 2016: 91-71, first place, lost to Chicago Cubs in NLCS
Manager: Dave Roberts (second season)
Who's new? IF Logan Forsythe, OF Franklin Gutierrez, OF Brett Eibner, RHP Sergio Romo
Who's gone? OF Josh Reddick, C Carlos Ruiz, RHP Joe Blanton, RHP Jose De Leon, LHP J.P. Howell, RHP Louis Coleman, RHP Jesse Chavez
Projected lineup: 2B Logan Forsythe (.264, 20 HR, 52 RBI with Rays) or Chase Utley (.252, 14, 52), SS Corey Seager (.308, 26 72), 3B Justin Turner (.275, 27, 90), 1B Adrian Gonzalez (.285, 18, 90), RF Yasiel Puig (.263, 11, 45) or Andre Ethier (.208, 1, 2 in 16 games), C Yasmani Grandal (.228, 27, 72), CF Joc Pederson (.246, 25, 68), LF Andrew Toles (.314, 3, 16) or Trayce Thompson (.225, 13, 32)
Rotation: LH Clayton Kershaw (12-4, 1.69 ERA), RH Kenta Maeda (16-11, 3.48), LH Rich Hill (12-5, 2.12 with A's and Dodgers), RH Brandon McCarthy (2-3, 4.95), LH Hyun-Jin Ryu (0-1, 11.57 in one game) or LH Alex Wood (1-4, 3.73)
Key relievers: RH Kenley Jansen (3-2, 1.83, 47/53 SV), RH Pedro Baez (3-2, 3.04), LH Grant Dayton (0-1, 2.05), LH Luis Avilan (3-0, 3.20), RH Josh Fields (1-0, 4.63 with Astros and Dodgers), RH Sergio Romo (1-0, 2.64 with Giants), RH Chris Hatcher (5-4, 5.53)
Hot spots: Outfield and rotation. The Dodgers set a record for Disabled List trips in 2016. Ethier, who missed most of last season with a broken tibia, compared his recent back injury to 'Groundhog Day.' Even without Ethier there isn't room for Puig, Pederson, Toles, Thompson, Scott Van Slyke, Franklin Gutierrez and Brett Eibner. The pitching staff was decimated last year too, but a deep farm system produced a wave of capable reinforcements. If Scott Kazmir, McCarthy or Ryu can't pitch, Julio Urias, Brock Stewart and Ross Stripling can step in.
Outlook: After two straight winters laying low on the free agent market, Andrew Friedman bet big on his 2016 roster. Turner, Jansen, Hill and Utley all re-signed, giving the Dodgers a chance to prove last season's NLCS run wasn't a fluke. A full season of Kershaw and Hill ' to name just two ' would improve the team's chances of claiming a fifth straight division title. If the Dodgers want to take the next step, they'll have to get past the defending champion Chicago Cubs, a potential perennial powerhouse whose roster remains similarly intact. | | SAN FRANCISCO: 2016: 87-75, second place
Manager: Bruce Bochy (11th season)
Who's new? RHP Mark Melancon, C Nick Hundley, IF Jae-Gyun Hwang
Who's gone? OF Angel Pagan, OF Gregor Blanco, RHP Jake Peavy, RHP Santiago Casilla, RHP Sergio Romo, LHP Javier Lopez
Projected lineup: CF Denard Span (.266, 11 HR, 53 RBI, 12 SB), 1B Brandon Belt (.275, 17 , 82), C Buster Posey (.288, 14, 80), RF Hunter Pence (.289, 13, 57), SS Brandon Crawford (.275, 12, 84), 3B Eduardo Nunez (.288, 16, 67, 40 SBs with Giants and Twins), 2B Joe Panik (.239, 10, 62), LF Jarrett Parker (.236, 5, 14) or Mac Williamson (.223, 6, 15)
Rotation: LH Madison Bumgarner (15-9, 2.74 ERA), RH Johnny Cueto (18-5, 2.79), RH Jeff Samardzija (12-11, 3.81), LH Matt Moore (13-12, 4.08 with Giants and Rays), RH Matt Cain (4-8, 5.64)
Key relievers: RH Mark Melancon (2-2, 1.64, 47/51 SV with Nationals), RH Hunter Strickland (3-3, 3.10), RH Derek Law (4-2, 2.13), LH Steven Okert (0-0, 3.21) or Josh Osich (1-3, 4.71), RH Cory Gearrin (3-2, 4.28), RH George Kontos (3-2, 2.53)
Hot spot: Bullpen and left field. No team blew more saves last year than the Giants. The front office hopes it found the answer by signing three-time All-Star closer Melancon to a (then-record) four-year, $62 million deal, and by cutting ties with Romo and Casilla. They will need to replace Will Smith, a key lefty who tore his UCL in spring training. Veteran outfielder Pagan left after five seasons in San Francisco. Rather than fill his shoes via free agency or trade, the unproven tandem of Williamson and Parker is expected to share time in left.
Outlook: The Giants have an established core of position players, and an enviable 1-2 rotation punch in Bumgarner and Cueto. That's probably why the front office did little in the offseason besides overhaul the back end of the bullpen. Hwang, who hit 26 home runs and drove in 104 last year in Korea, is an intriguing addition to the bench. Mostly the Giants are counting on continuity. Former NL MVP Posey is coming off a below-average season by his standards, and sparkplug Pence missed nearly two months last year with a hamstring injury. Expecting both to bounce back isn't a stretch, and new closer Melancon is as good as they come. At full strength, this Giants team should be able to give the Dodgers a good run. |
| | Giants' Blach fills in for Bumgarner vs. Dodgers, Kershaw
SAN FRANCISCO -- Los Angeles Dodgers ace Clayton Kershaw will try to do something new when he makes his 36th career start against the San Francisco Giants on Tuesday night. Beat Giants left-hander Ty Blach. The second-year Giant drew Kershaw in his second big-league start on the second-to-last day of the regular season last October. The day couldn't have gone any better for Blach and the Giants. Needing an improbable win over Kershaw in order to solidify their standing in the National League wild-card race, the Giants rode Blach's eight innings of three-hit, shutout ball to a 3-0 victory. The defeat was just the eighth for Kershaw against the Dodgers' rivals from the north. Despite his late-season success and a strong spring, Blach was denied a spot in the Giants' season-opening rotation this year when manager Bruce Bochy opted to fill the No. 5 slot with veteran Matt Cain. That sent Blach to the bullpen, where he pitched shutout ball in six of his seven appearances. Cain, meanwhile, has pitched well in three of his four starts, including a six-inning effort Monday in the Giants' 2-1 win over the Dodgers in the series opener. Blach (0-0, 4.76 ERA) earned the Tuesday start, his first of the season, because of Madison Bumgarner's dirt-bike accident last week that landed the left-hander on the disabled list and cancelled the potential showdown of staff aces. Before the Monday game, Bumgarner addressed the media for the first time since his Thursday accident and offered no timetable for his return from bruised ribs and a sprained shoulder. "Any time you're going to lose a guy like that in the rotation, as much as he means to this team, that's tough," Blach said in Denver after he was named the Monday starter. "But we're going to come together and we'll get him healthy and back in the rotation soon." The Dodgers, who have struggled against left-handed pitching this season (.224 cumulative average), don't necessarily catch a break in missing Bumgarner. Blach faced the Dodgers twice last season (once in relief), and he allowed no runs and three hits over 11 innings. Los Angeles manager Dave Roberts wishes the circumstances were different. "It's unfortunate, Madison's situation," he said. "It's a reminder to all players what can happen. That's why they're called accidents." Including his 3-0 loss to Blach in October, Kershaw pitched well against the Giants last season. He went 2-1 while allowing only eight earned runs in five starts. The Dodgers won four of the five games. Kershaw (3-1, 2.54 ERA) has won three of his four starts this season, with the loss coming in his only previous road outing at Colorado, where he was roughed up for four runs on eight hits in six innings. He is 18-8 with a 1.61 ERA in his career against the Giants. Chances are, Kershaw will face Giants prospect Christian Arroyo for the first time. The 21-year-old made his major league debut Monday as the starting third baseman, going 0-for-4 on the same day on which he was promoted from Triple-A Sacramento. Arroyo was leading the Pacific Coast League in batting average at the time of his call-up. |
