    I said after last game Barnes earned the right to catch the rest of the series with Smith DHing. Doc didn't get the memo. It was so easy. Pitching staff is all more comfortable with him catching and it is so obvious.

    Arozarena falling down on the final play of the game put the comedy over the top.

    If you detach yourself from the heartbreaking reality of what happened, it really is a funny play. Taylor boots the ball, Muncy makes a bad 30 ft throw, Smith drops it, Kenley stands in no-man’s land like he’s just a spectator with good tickets, Arozarena falls down for seemingly no reason then gets up and makes a piss poor dive to score, Brett Philips is running the bases like he’s the fucking game winning run (I have no idea why he was busting ass to 3B), and after the win Philips runs around the outfield and all the Rays chase him like an early version of Madden Football. And still the biggest joke is that Roberts didn’t lose faith in Kenley 2 years ago like everyone else.

    Yeah I don’t think I can stomach tomorrow.
    Should be up 3-1 with Kershaw possibly winning it all in his hometown
    Now all I can think of is him fucking it up again and having to go to game 6 down 3-2

    Have more confidence in Walker coming out on no days rest to close out the game. Kenley is done. He'll never get another MLB contract. He's garbage. If we don't win tomorrow it's over. And you know knowing this team Kershaw will fucking deal and not give up more than a run but this team will get shutout.

    Kenley would look good in a Giants uniform as their new closer for 2021.

    Kenley has got to have something on Dave right?? Like why the fuck do you keep going to the guy? I probably rather see McGee or even fucking Wood over Jansen. People who have ever bought a Jansen jersey should get a refund or just burn the fucking thing.

    I'll be honest as heartbreaking as that bullshit was it's also fucking hilarious. Like how the fuck do we manage to fuck up so bad. Maybe this is the year. "This is our year! THIS IS OUR YEAR!!!" - Dave.. yeah this is the year we fire your dumb fucking ass. Bye bkitch! :mad:

    I have no doubt that Kershaw is going to deal tomorrow and restore the faith.

    The more I think about it, the more I don’t understand why Brusdar wasn’t in. If Randy tags you, then he tags you. Oh well. Arozarena is great but it’s about limiting everyone else around him. He can’t beat you by himself.

    Fuck Kenley. Always and forever.

    They just... they have to win 2 more. That’s it. Win two more and don’t make it about decisions here or there or plays here or there. It’s tiring to have to nitpick and find decisions and plays that change everything. From 2008 to 2013 and on. Every year.

    If they lose this, there’s nothing that can be done that’ll make me feel good about anything this off-season. They can fire dfa release trade sign anyone and everyone and nope, I’ll never believe these losers will win no matter what. I don’t want that. I jsut wanna win so bad and not have to spend every damn night thinking about “who and what to blame tonight?” Ya kno. Win and we can just laugh at some of these things cause who cares, it was worth it, we won. All I want.

    change your entire narrative tomorrow Kershaw and offense, or go home. Simple as that.

    We're winning game 5 and getting that ring!! If we're going to be champs we still have to fuck up very badly in atleast one game. Baseball gods are happy now. We're winning game 5 and 6 and we'll still get rid of Kenley and Dave in the offseason because that's what dodger fans deserve.

    Can you fucking imagine what Lasorda thought about that bullshit game?

    Wasn't just Kenley and Baez last night. Treinen shit himself, too.

    Bazooka was the only one that did his job. And no, that wasn't an endorsement to leave him in for the 9th. He hasn't done it all year and you're not going to have him do it for the first in the World Series.

    On second thought.............

    Only way last night's final play doesn't become a Bill Buckner moment is for them to win this thing.

    When it was over and another cool, late October night had slipped from the hole in his pocket and fallen clear to the floor, manager Dave Roberts looked across the field as though he could see all of it and grasp none of it.

    His Dodgers had come upon a gripping few seconds in World Series history and become vulnerable. Fragile. Patsies. His bullpen had come apart. Perhaps the Rays had taken it apart. His arms were draped over the dugout rail, his cap in his left hand. His eyes were narrow, searching for context, for an explanation.

    “Unfortunately,” he said, “it was like that unperfect storm. Just unfortunate.”

    you know that davey look, the one that shows what a total imbecile the man is
    suck dic simpleton
    no manager has ever done less with more and if those men somehow pull it off it will clearly be in spite of you
