bob44 Posted August 25, 2007 Author Share Posted August 25, 2007 Does anybody think these 2007 LA Dodgers can beat the 2001 Seattle Mariners insane record of 116-46. LA would have to finish off the season 35-9. Can it be done? The Dodgers have the best record by far this season at 82-36 (10 games above Boston 72-46)......but they are only 6-10 in their last 16 games.
