    Freeman is a fucking idiot. HE should've learned by now. Every fucking time he holds someone on he comes off the bag and comes in for zero fucking reason at all and it just cost Knack an easy out or 2

    Just getting bitch smacked by scrubs and teams we have to beat.
    Kid should be out of it and in the dugout.
    Looks like it might be a tough day for him.

    Nice comeback inning by Knack.
    But CJ Abrams must be killed.

    This kid pitches quicker than anyone I can remember.
    Now if the lineup could score off this guy...but I know...Cy Young and all.
    Just too damn hard.

    This team can be so damn hard to watch. They get hits, but the most untimely ones. Max with bases-empty double, but where was it in the first inning when he struck out with two runners on? Or Ohtani, the singles king with two hits today, apparently because Mookie is 0 for 3. If Mookie was getting on base, you can bet Shohei would be O-hei. And Freeman with the GIDP, I expect he'll single in his next AB if there's nobody on. Outman has a hit, yay, but that was with bases empty and came up empty his next AB with Max on 2nd. Can't help but feel that this roster was talked up so much in the spring that the team expects it will all come easy to them, and they have the absolute worst-motivational manager leading the way.

    that's just it
    when you are having trouble moving runners home try something different but nooooo the ass slapper has one dimensional approach
    in fact they aren't even prepared to do the fundamentals
    watching teams steal at will makes you question if they even practice

    Well the kid Knack has nice stuff, and even though gave it up to that skinny fuck Abrams, he was not helped at all by Freeman and that non catch, giving up one was pretty damn good. I don't know how he'll do against better teams ( although all teams look good against the Dodgers now), but that was a a nice turn.
    On a team like this, with mediocre pitching, he could help, but we'll probably see very little of him in the near future.

    Something wrong with these teams man. The indifference is palpable.

    This is really something for a manager to deal wth and fix before it blooms into something wicked this way comes.
    Imo, making the pitching changes, juggling lineups and dealing with injuries is something many baseball people are more than capable of handling.
    The strategies have been out there for years...over a hundred actually, no matter how the game has changed.
    But the ability and skill to take an overall team malaise and deal with it...turn it around, takes more than ass tapping and friendly conversation. More acumen and insight by the leader.
    And there's where the Dodgers fall short. And all the talent in the world won't change that if that leader hasn't a clue...or is unwilling to take or try an alternative approach. Even in light of concrete, multiple proven failures.
    Like Billy Martin. Everybody hated everybody else on that team, but he got the best out of his players, and didn't give a shit who didn't like the way he did it.
