In this episode of CapFigure Podcast, we continue our 2017 team previews from Silicon Valley, the home of the San Francisco Giants.

With arguably the best starting rotation in baseball and the addition of all-star closer Mark Melancon, the Giants once again appear to be on the short list of World Series contenders. We’ll also share with you some of the best tall tales of the modern day Paul Bunyan, Madison Bumgarner himself. If you call yourself a baseball fan, you won’t want to miss a thing!

In this episode of CapFigure Podcast, we continue our 2017 team previews from Chavez Ravine, the home of the Los Angeles Dodgers. Known recently as “The Evil Empire of the West”, the Dodgers are well-known for their oversized payroll and lack of a ring to show for it. Despite these shortcomings, the Dodgers sport the game’s best pitcher (Clayton Kershaw) and a streak of four straight NL West titles. Two wins away from the NL Pennant in 2016, are the Dodgers poised to take the giant leap to World Series Champions in 2017? If you call yourself a baseball fan, you won’t want to miss a thing!

In this episode of CapFigure Podcast, we continue our 2017 team previews with the Milwaukee Brewers.

In this episode of CapFigure Podcast, we continue our 2017 team previews with the Miami Marlins.

Although the Marlins sport one of the most robust batting lineups in the league, will their pitching staff deliver enough to help the team make a playoff run?
