Best move would be to trade Kershaw at the trade deadline. That way he can get us most of the way there, and then can't ruin yet another post season. It is impossible to win when your most important , No.1 ACE, Team leader, shits himself in the 7th inning in most of his post season games. The great pitchers get better in these scenarios, Bumgardner, deGrum, even fucking Arrieta seem to have no problem doing it. fuck I am so sick of this bullshit!
If the Cardinals had Kershaw, they'd never win a post season series either and everyone would blame Matheny.
Vasseh, Kennedy, Vic the Brick, Hairston, etc. are all blowhards. Pretending like we are way too good to lose to the Mets. Guess what? Degrom, Noah, and Harvey are real. And Kershaw ain't that unhittable
Not opposed to trading Kershaw, seriously. I am so not content with just making it to the playoffs anymore. We need to win when we get their and Kershaw doesn't pitch like regular season Kershaw in the playoffs. Trade him to a team that is completely happy with just making it too the playoffs.
His contract has a stipulation that if he's traded he's a free agent at the end of the year. Not that it would ever happen anyway, but it can't happen.
The new Kershaw narrative sounds awful like the old Kershaw narrative. But the hitting has got to improve. 1 run is not gonna cut it in 90% of these playoff situations. This is the same broken record, and I'm getting sick of the tune. What is it going to take?
It's funny how so many fans (not here) wanted a 3rd ace soooooo bad. But it doesn't even matter because our 1 ace can't make it past 6 innings in the playoffs. Ever.
I love Cory Seager, but in spite of his "oops" double that should've been caught but any competent left fielder, he has no business batting 3rd in this post season...but then Mattingly knew that this team is full of guys that cannot hit premier pitching so Seager batted 3rd, not sure if it matters. Fuck I have no fix for this team right now. Was hoping our superstar highest paid Ace pitcher would carry us like Bumgardner did last year for the Faggots of the Bay area, and The Bulldog did for our Dodgers in 1988 but NO!!!
I'm so disappointed after this game. There's nothing new for me to say that hasn't already been said. Win Game 2 and we're back in it. I'll see you guys tomorrow
I actually think we must get one to EVER win it all. We could win the next 2 with Greinke and Hamels(in my dream scenario), CK losses game 4(in the 7th inning as usual), Greinke brings home the win in game 5. 7 game series= CK loses games 1 and 4 Greinke and Hamels win 2,3 and 5,6 ..SEE? lol
