Los Angeles: 11-7
Arizona:  9-9
San Francisco: 9-10

Overall Arizona and Dodgers have traded places with the Dodgers having a 1 game lead over the D-Backs.  The Rockies move from 3rd place to 2nd picking up 2 games on Arizona, but staying even with the Dodgers and still trail them by 1/2 game.

In the early games this week all three leaders are home Rockies vs. Giants, Dodgers vs. Mets and D-Backs have the Padres for 2.  Next weekend, the D-Backs host the Braves for 4 while the Dodgers come to Coors Field, while the Giants go to Milwaukee. .

All 3 top teams are pitching well, and not hitting well. It's still anybody's title, but the Giants are going to have a tough road to get back into it over all 3 teams.

One other note from the Rockies standpoint:  The Rockies pitchers are set up to have Gray and Freeland go in both the Dodgers and D-Backs series at home.  In fact the same three guys will pitch against the Giants both at Coors and AT&T as well as the Dodgers.
