Fair enough and I agree that the Dodgers bullpen could be a concern in the postseason. I would take their lineup and rotation over the Cardinals though, that's why I think they are better. It's all close though, both (and all the other teams you listed) are very good.

I do have to take issue with the "2 quality starters" line. That may be one of the biggest undersells I have ever seen. They have two of the best starters alive and the rest of their rotation is solid as well.

Ballsy, seeing is how the Cards rotation is unlike any other since the 1970's and all 3 teams that have had a lower ERA this late into the season in baseball history, all won the World Series.

You may never see another rotation like this Cardinals one this season in many many years. And this is without Wainwright.

I like Greinke and Kershaw as much as the next guy, but that doesn't put them above the Cardinals depth as a whole. No one can match the Cardinals depth, starters or bullpen for that matter.
