But the Giants' propensity for maximizing talent continues to make them a force. And the ace, Kevin Gausman, hasn't been his typically dominant self of late. Anthony DeSclafani has contributed only 4⅓ innings since the middle of August. Johnny Cueto, who missed time earlier last month with a flexor strain, gave up 10 hits and recorded only 11 outs against the Brewers on Tuesday and went back on the IL with an elbow strain on Wednesday. Alex Wood was recently placed on the COVID-19 injured list and is "not feeling well at all," Giants manager Gabe Kapler said Monday. The Giants' rotation has been dominant all year, but some discouraging signs have materialized lately. Adding either one of those two to a rotation that features Max Scherzer, Walker Buehler and Julio Urias - three starters who have combined for a 2.55 ERA in 466⅔ innings - is patently absurd. Clayton Kershaw and Tony Gonsolin took part in simulated games earlier this week, and Dodgers manager Dave Roberts came away encouraged by both of their outings. And that staff might be getting some serious help soon. But their pitching staff combined for a major-league-best 2.25 ERA, more than three quarters of a run better than that of the second-place Giants.
Their offense slumped - relative to their standards - with an average of less than five runs per game. The Dodgers finished August with a 21-6 record.
