We break down the amazing week, both by the team as well as some of the individual performances. (Did someone say "Cycle" by the reigning NL Player of the Week?)

We also look ahead to 2017, 2018 and beyond and what we expect from the team. Is Teheran truly untradeable? What about Vizcaino?

What to do with Norris, Gant, Folty and Perez?
