I just saw that Jalen Hurts is out for the season due to blood clots in his lungs. I wonder if Stephen A. Smith is gonna say the same idiotic shit about him like he said about Lane Johnson
@SleeperDodgers Yes. He seemed to gel with the rest of the pitching staff. As a die hard Dodger fan I’m excited to see what a full season with him on the staff would look like.
@DodgersNation They have to be some changes. Middle relief was average at best. They needed a legit closer. I know Diaz was hurt most of the year. Tanner Scott just wasn’t the answer.
@DodgersNation Disappointing end to a good season. They fought though injuries and still won the NL west. Brewers deserved to win. I much rather see them than the Braves win. I’ll always bleed blue.
@Usctrojan009@DodgersNation Mookie was hurt in the beginning of the season. Freddie Freeman was hurt. But, the biggest one was Ohtani. He just hasn’t been himself since coming back. He looks bad at the plate
@Usctrojan009@DodgersNation I forgot about Yoshi, and the whole staff being injured last year. I agree with every thing here except for one thing. I don’t think the team was average. Many of the position players were hurt. But, they fought through many times
@DodgersNation Numb. Bummed. I’m glad I didn’t watch the game. I haven’t watched much of the series. I think a lot of this is on Dave Roberts. Should’ve sat Ohtani. The offense has totally disappeared. Can’t go 3-32 with runners in scoring position expecting to win.
@DodgersNation And this is why I followed the game on my phone and didn’t watch on tv. I’m protecting my peace. I mean what the hell? He should’ve pulled him after the first HR smh
@SleeperDodgers Not very confident. Should’ve left Milwaukee with a split. Ohtani is not himself. He looked bad last game. Not confident in middle relief. Other than maybe Vesia, the relief pitching has been suspect, and don’t get me started on Tanner Scott.
@DodgersNation I hate to say it, but they may need to sit Ohtani. Every since the came back it looks like he hasn’t been himself. 1-7, 3 K’s, yeah he needs to sit.
@DodgersNation I’m not too positive about the middle relief. Don’t get me started about Tanner Scott. Every since he blew that game late in the season against the Marlins he’s been on my list
@DodgersNation The Brewers did the same thing to Yamamoto like the Dodgers did to Miz, ran his pitch count up. They took advantage and got key hits. If the Dodgers did that in game one the series would be even
@SleeperDodgers 7/10, only because I don’t trust the bullpen. If they let Tanner Scott be the set up man and let Diaz close, then I’ll go 8/10. Also, offense has to produce. You can’t go 0-whatever against the Brewers with RISP.
@DodgersNation Agreed. They’re pretty much the same team from last year. Offense has to execute in key situations. Bats can’t go silent. Can’t rely on the long ball and go 0 for whatever expecting to win.
