Depending on who you talk to, the Dodgers are predicted to win anywhere from 88 to 98 games in 2015, with many of the so-called experts pinning them at right around the 94-win mark. Interestingly, this just so happens to be the exact number of wins that they had in 2014 en route to their second consecutive NL West title.
With the surprising off-season trade of Matt Kemp and the loss of Hanley Ramirez to free agency, there is no argument that the Dodgers offense took a serious hit. However, with the acquisitions of Howie Kendrick, Jimmy Rollins and Yasmani Grandal, and with the anticipated emergence of Joc Pederson and the natural progression of Yasiel Puig, MLB Network Radio’s Inside Pitch host and former MLB general manager Jim Bowden says that “The Dodgers went from a 94-win team to a 94-win team.”
According to Bovada Sports, the Dodgers are 17/2 odds to win the 2015 World Series, second only to the Washington Nationals at 13/2.

lol! – Less than 88? Must be a Giants fan.
My vote is 91. My main concern is depth of starting pitching. Can we get 12 to 15 wins each out of Anderson and McCarthy.
I’d say the Dodgers will repeat at 94 wins but the rest of the division looks stronger, especially the Giants and Padres.
