    There’s only been one postseason where we removed Kenley from the closer role under Roberts and we won the WS. Julio closed game 7 of the NLCS, Blake closed game 5 of the WS, and Julio closed game 6 of the WS. In a world where we use Jansen in all save situations, we lose that WS. What’s the definition of insanity?

    Had to turn off the postgame bullshit with Dave. Blaming Neuse and the ump while giving Kenley a pass as usual....those two have to be gay together.

    Setting the record for most blown saves in WS history just wasn't enough for Kenley.

    @ESPNStatsInfo
    The Dodgers have now lost 3 straight games in which they led entering the 9th inning for the 1st time in a single season in franchise history.

    Did they boo Toongus? Please tell me they booed Toongus. Wonder what Roberts has to say now. In fact, just shut up and do your job.

    Oh yeah, the boos rained down. More of those need to be directed at Roberts though.

    You’d think after putting Julio in the World Series to close em out he would have realized Kenley isn’t the way to go

    Jansen was great up till 2017. The Astros broke him. Now he’s not the guy he was and after the game 4 debacle last year he shouldn’t be the closer. Kenleys ego will be the death of us come October if this bs lands us in the wild card game where I guarantee we won’t make out if we face the Padres

    I will always firmly believe, that during this Dodger run of post season appearances had we a different manager, we would have achieved more than the one WS in the 60 game season of 2020.
