The Dodgers are many things. The team employing the best pitching staff in baseball, however, they are not. Don't let Dodger Stadium, early success at an unsustainable level, and small-sample-size infused performances cloud you judgement.
That said, I do think that the Dodgers are by far the best team in the West and, considering the Cubs' almost plague-like series of injuries (I mean, Nomar for most of the season, Walker for weeks, Prior for a couple weeks, Fox for the whole season, Borowski for 6 weeks, ARam's tender groin...its like G-d hates them or something), the Dodgers look like the second best team in the NL right now after the Cards.
