Could be the worse game Pedro Baez >>>>>>>> Kimbrel. Guy flat out sucks. Can you see him in the post season. Guy's a fucking nightmare.
The Kimbrel suck factor wouldn't have come into play with a little more RISP production. Another reliable pen arm has to be a priority. Can't believe the number fat pitches that Bellinger (especially last night) and Muncy miss. Rest of the lineup has been carrying these stiffs all year. Thompson has been a revelation. But it seems there's no in between with him. Either a really good AB or a really shitty one. No complaints about his OF defense, though.
And an infant is not capable of tearing his teeth out...a la Col. Kurtz. All that would be left is a pile of little baby Dodger arms...
Buster Olney✓@Buster_ESPN The Dodgers have acquired Chris Martin from the Cubs. 10:37 AM · Jul 30, 2022 · Twitter Web App
had high hopes when he first came up but like so many others his weaknesses were quickly exposed at the plate still has potential but there's nowhere on this team for him lot of upside being able to play consistently good luck zack attack
Kershaw came apart there & now it looks like LA just wants to get back to the Westin for a steak dinner at The Palm.
You know how everyone talks about the uncanny abilities of LA to find gems each season ? Well, they found an anti-gem lump of coal in Reed. Guy's weak, man. Also, if the Dodgers go 31-31 for the rest of remaing games, the Padres have to go 43-19 to tie us. Is that right? With Tatis and Soto. Hmmmm....
Good points, but I think we all know the real problem with this Dodger team. It isn't going to be winning the division that's the problem. The problem is going to be them getting rolled in their first real test in the postseason. Between their problems with the closer and their Mr. Hyde offense, especially the tendency to leave about 37 guys on base per game, it wouldn't take more than a lukewarm team to kick their ass in a short series.
