So the Dodgers are in the playoffs, but for how long?

The Dodgers finally made it to the playoffs, thanks in some part to Manny Ramirez, but how far will they go this year? will they get another post-season victory so Jose Lima will shut about it? are they any good to compete? or they are here just because they played in the worst division of Baseball? Personally I had lost any hope of the Dodgers getting any series victory.
