    It's easy to feel unaffected by this team when you accepted a long time ago that you'll never witness them winning a WS in your lifetime.

    Watched a game a long time ago where Armando Benitez balked in the winning run and remember thinking, this will never happen again. Then Yimi Garcia showed up.

    The Dodgers have to average 6-7 runs per game to overcome Dave and this horrendous bullpen. Which will never happen.

    We are in trouble

    This looks a lot like two years ago around Labor Day. A bad losing streak that just gave an indication that we were not ready for prime time.

    Retarded Joc swings at two pitches that weren't close but watches a meatball.

    The time has just about come for the Dodgers to move on from Joc.
    They invested in Pollock and have superior OFers like Verdugo and Bellinger to fill out the other 2 spots.

    JT used to be clutch.

    Those were the days.

    Bright side...we didn’t have to see Roberts putting in Toomgus to blow the save.

    That’s what it’s become.

    The Dodgers could rejuvenate themselves with a guy like Lux coming in and adding intrigue, competition, and much needed offensive help.

    But they won't do it

    The F.O. just thinks they are so fucking smart.

    Literally the dumbest shit ever. none of their last 3 runs were even for a second deserved. JT crushed a ball in each of his last two ABs and got fucked both times.

    The Dbacks didn't deserve that 2 run bomb off Sadler's fat pitch?
    They didn't deserve credit for baiting an idiot like Yimi into balking?
    JT crushed that ground ball to 3B?

    I saw the Dodgers get beat by a team who played better.

    Didn't see the exit velo on JTs final out but it didn't look crushed to me

    New poll: forget about 100 wins, does this team reach 90 wins by the end of the season?

    And nope, there are no rookies or specs coming to save title hopes this season. Not here and not anywhere else around the league. Doesn't matter how much fans pray for Verdugo or Lux to put them over the top. Shit's not happening. It's not, and it's unfair to those kids to ask them to do so or have that expectation. Neither of them has ever done anything in September, let alone October, obviously. Hell, Verdugo's never even done anything of note in August..not in the show or the minors..he finally had a noteworthy July just last year. Excluding that, you'd have to go all the way back to 2015, when Verdugo was in A-ball, to find anything of note from him in July/August. And obviously, if we're talking A-ball we aren't even really talking about anything. Just saying..to put it into perspective, there's a better chance of Kersh getting the job done in October than there is of these kids impacting where this ship is heading over the next couple months. You know what really might have sparked this outfit though? A star in his prime. An expensive star, but a star talent nonetheless.

    They had a chance to sign a star bat in the offseason and choked..could've had a star talent in his prime leading off for a contending lineup for the foreseeable future. Worse, the guy was basically begging to be a Dodger, but they didn't want to overpay a star in his prime. No, they decided that they wanted to overpay 2 fading guys and a reliever ( Pollock/Kershaw/Kelly) instead. Overpaying for a star talent in his prime was too unreasonable..the politics didn't line up. Thus, now, we get to complain about Joc and Pollock leading off in crunch time + send our prayers up for wet behind the ears young players Lux/Verdugo to save this season..because that's reasonable. Guggs = bums..FO/manager = wimps. That is what's leading the " LAD culture ". Bums and wimps. From the beginning - Walter/Kasten - to the end - king wimp Jansen. Can't wait until this offseason when they're all systems go on giving $200MM to Anthony Rendon because he's Mexican. Belli and Lux are going to have their work cut out for them in the future in trying to give this org/culture some balls.

    Right now, steeped in valid pessimism: No MVP ( wondering if my prediction of Beli @ .290 is generous), no CY ( (unless he immediately goes back to mid season Ryu), and definitely no WS, as I don't think we handle any of the potential division winners that well at all. Everyone else is trending towards peak baseball on the field, and we are the antithesis of that, in spades. In pretty much all aspects. The individual awards are back of the baseball cards fodder anyway, not important at all, especially considering the decades long fail in post season.
    Anything can happen though, and should we get to meet the AL, we simply are overmatched by all of the possibilities.
    And incidentally, if Kelly is possibly back to sucking to the former degree only he can attain, then Robots hands are even more tied than they are presently.
    " The best team in baseball" was the worst albatross label that could be hung around our necks.
    Aside from the flesh eating virus known as Dave Roberts. Positively medieval on our ass. Can the blow torches be far behind?
    Just how long this beat down by the NLW will last, is anybody's guess...but, imo, I suspect that is is merely the beginnings of divisional embarrassment.
    Leading up to a more exquisite type agony like we all know...
    The Dodgers are the root canal of baseball.
