Dodgers vs Angels

[LoveMeOrHateMe]

The Dodgers or Angels?
Now that the dodgers added greinke and the angels added Hamilton who is the best and most complete team at the moment? Who takes the crown in LA?
Imagine an angels vs dodgers World Series!!

[nickdymez]

Dodgers. They win on starting pitching alone. And the bats aint to shabby niether.. lol

[mexican dodger]

Who has a better team with all the New acquisitions? Is there finally going to be a freeway world series?

[stupidmop]

That's a tough question. I think I would go with the Dodgers.

[ciaban]

I think the angels, because they had less of a way to go to be really good, and there are a lot of question marks surrounding some of the dodgers. Also, the angels are a much better defensive team.

[popo85]

Its not over i think both teams still make moves before season starts

[fresh prince]

Dodgers could be really good but they have a few more question marks than the Halos going in.

Crawford??
Beckett?
Ryu??
A Gon's power?

Halos have a few of their own mainly the rotation. But if Hanson and Blanton can be as bad as Haren and Santan were (mid 4 ERA's) its pretty much a wash.

Dodgers for me. Their rotation is better which is basically what it comes down to for me. Pretty close, though.

[VRP723]

Right now it's us pretty easily. If the Angels get Dickey it's very close. Their rotation is currently Weaver-Wilson-Blanton-Hanson-Richard.

I wouldn't say eaisly. We have Kemp coming off a shoulder and CC coming off TJ. Our rotation is better, but we have to see who is healthy come April.

That starting rotation would be lucky to give them 10 wins. If they get Dickey, and everyone slides down a spot, different story.

Dodgers are better right now simply because Angels pitching is terrible.....no more greinke, haren, or Santana....and there bullpen is terrible....but WOW did they pick up some serious hitting....Pujols, hamilton, Trout, Trumbo(hes a hard worker), Wells(if hes still motivated).....(.kendrick....Morales....Callapso.. ..) they are decent but you can tell they really love the game of baseball

That's true

That's not a tough question at all. The Dodgers on paper are twice the team that the Angels are.

Pitching staffs:

1. Kershaw (Cy Young for what should've been 2 years running)
2. Grienke (Cy Young winner)
3. Beckett (great after acquisition, great pitcher if he's all there)
4. Lilly/Harang
5. Ryu

vs.

1. Weaver (great)
2. CJ Wilson (pretty good)
3. Hanson (alright)
4. Blanton (rubbish)
5. Richards (meh)

Lineup comparisons: Trout-Pujols-Hamilton-Morales-Trumbo vs. Kemp-Gonzalez-Ethier-Crawford-Ramirez, I would maybe take the Angels by a tad.

Overall, the pitching for Dodgers should win this argument every time. We've seen clubs get into the WS with a good offense, but when is the last time we've seen one win that didn't have very good pitching?

Billingsly will be 4 I assume.
