    ERA about to be in the 4s.

    After that dreadful start vs SF where he gave us no chance at the start, he lays another egg. Nice.

    Well props to CK for battling and getting through 6.

    Bad start or not, the BP needs all the help it can get

    Please score

    We need to hit as many balls to Austin Riley as possible

    All in all, even with the 13 runs scored so far in these two games, the hitting pretty much sucks.
    Man, without the incredible E totals, we are mediocre at best.

    Well done Dodgers. Like BZ said, the 13 runs are very misleading and have mostly all been gifted by the Braves.

    @BlakeHarrisTBLA As they just said on the broadcast, the Braves bullpen has only had two outings this season where they didn’t allow a run over at least four innings

    Had plenty of chances, failed when we needed it most. We were incredibly lucky to score as many as we did in both games, and to get a split. Pretty weak offense, imo.
    Won't get that kind of clunky defense from better teams, that's for sure.
    Betts and Turner 0-8 ?

    It actually looks like that equation is not so outrageous anymore. The whole dynamic has changed, for me anyway.
    I definitely do not feel the same as I initially did when Mookie comes to bat. In fact, it's pretty much the opposite now. When they ( the announcers) tell you he's toying and experimenting with different grips, stances, etc., after what history he has, that's a really bad sign, for sure, imo.
    With Bellinger seemingly rendering himself an offensive mediocrity at best for some time now, but a stellar defensive force, another one at the top of the lineup doesn't bode well for these long haul.
    Let's face it, there's plenty of guys who could do what Betts has, so far anyway.

    for all the guys selling out on Mookie i'll just say one thing
    attitude is everything and he'll make you eat those words in a minute lol
    imo he obviously has a nagging something and is playing through it

    Idk if attitude is everything. That's debatable, imo.
    I know plenty of guys who have good attitudes, but they're not so good. And people sell out on them all the time.
    Just like Kershaw, as recently as last night. He is only the best pitcher ERA wise in the last century.
    Sooner or later, everyone does well. Or sucks.
    In fact, I think Bauer looks like shit lately.
    Much of the perception has to do with the standard that is set for yourself.
