The 2017 Dodgers had a shot at the all-time record of 116 regular-season wins before stumbling in September. This year’s team had its own hot streak and could match that record with a 24-5 finish.…
LOS ANGELES — It was the best of times. It was the worst of times. It really was.
The Dodgers were running away with the NL West with a 21-game lead in the division and were on pace to challenge the MLB record of 116 regular-season wins.“I think 2017 was a good team. This is a good team,” Turner said. “I don’t know that I want to draw a comparison because I don’t like the way that year ended.”
“It’s been brought to my attention a couple of times here recently,” Dodgers manager Dave Roberts said of the comparisons between 2017 and 2022. “There were some things that affected our psyche that year in September – September 1 being the key date – that don’t make sense. It affected some players and the way we played and, no excuses, we didn’t play well. But I don’t think that’s gonna be the case this year.
“I think we come into the season with one goal in mind and that’s to win a championship,” Turner said. “Stuff that happens during the season – there’s records and there’s milestones and all that stuff that comes along with it. That’s great. But I think in this clubhouse, winning a championship is the most important thing.”
