    Yeah there's plenty of blame to spread around all corners of the Dodger bread

    Having an MIT graduate weighing in on lineup decisions is the "Worst scenario ever"?

    You could argue having on field experience is so much more important but I can see both sides.

    "I enjoyed playing for him. As a whole, we did not accomplish what we wanted, and he had to take the brunt of that and he did so with class."

    I think the Gabe Kapler thing is going to happen...I think it's a great fit on the surface....but something tells me the Kapler thing will fail miserably. I think you need a Showalter or Bud Black type. I keep going back and forth on this. Kapler makes so much sense but I have a bad feeling about it

    Someone I know has said that the whole FO, or a good bit of it, and Kapler are part of a big , gay " brotherhood" that basically runs the team.
    Imagine?
    ...and the beat goes on...

    Once again these number crunching ass clowns just dont get it. One would think that with all the reading theyve done they might have come across this

    anyways, you need a real dodger in there. not some 2 bit mercenary who had a cup of coffee with a losing team.

    Fucking Bums just cant get right.....

    IDK...not saying it's true, but it's definitely not beyond the realm of possibility.
    Maybe that's why Donnie's out- and even why he wanted out, if that's true. With year left on his contract and all. Donnie don' play 'dat game !
    Might not be all about"saving face" as we all assumed.
    Tsk, tsk...

    • Don Mattingly’s separation from the Dodgers was amicable, Joel Sherman of the New York Post writes. The pressures of managing an expensive team with championship expectations weighted on Mattingly, as did whispers about whether he would be fired. When the two sides spoke on Monday, the Dodgers told him they were not interested in offering a long-term extension, which told him their commitment to him wasn’t strong. The new Dodgers front office would, evidently, prefer to hire its own manager, even though Mattingly was willing to work with the front office with its use of advanced metrics.

    REPORTER: "So what about the rumors that many in your front office are gay?"
    FRIEDMAN: "What about it? "
    REPORTER: "Well is it true?"
    FRIEDMAN: "You sound like one of those gay bashers?!!!"
    REPORTER: "No, I'm actually gay."
    ZAIDI: "Figures... fag. In my country we'd bludgeon your kind to death!"
    FRIEDMAN: "Actually, don't they pretty much do that for anything in your country?"
    REPORTER: "Wow, racist homophobe!"
    ZAIDI: "Yeah, you're both fags."
