Actually I'm not really THAT bad... I follow baseball all year long... and I'm doing so more each year. Ram23 and Ramsrule got me back into it back a few years ago when they were posting about the Angels. Until then I watched VERY sporadically... still harboring a grudge from the decades old now strikes.
I can NOT, however, name rosters... pitching rotations, etc. I couldn't even tell you who the top hitters are. So I'm in need of a primer to get things rolling. Nothing super specific... who has the best pitching rotation, in your opinion... best hitters.. that type of thing... focusing mostly on the Dodgers.
I think you're both aware that I am the most fickle fan on earth when it comes to baseball... and have, in the past... rooted for both the Giants AND the Dodgers... a mortal sin for which I will pay dearly. These days, however... I am very much siding with the Dodgers... and NOT just because they're in it and the Giants aren't.. I was rooting for them against the Giants all year.
I also really like the Cubs... the Cubs vs Giants was the first pro game I ever saw live... Seal's stadium. I am fond of the Red Sox... ever since the '75 World Series. This year, however, I'm a Dodger fan.
