AJ needs to retire and go into coaching. and Someone forgot to tell Mattingly that if you want to get guys days off you don't do it all in one night with your ace (at least this season) on the hill. He "gave days off" to more than half of our power. Seriously, Greinke doesn't deserves the L he is going to get.
Grandal 4 HR's Ethier 5 HR's Adrian 9 HR's Joc 10 HR's Mattingly: Oh lets give them all days off just because :mattingly:
glad i went back and read all the posts was going to same the exact same thing especially since agon raked against de la rosa and by stacking the lineup full of righties he had to go with joc as a ph might as well have left zack in to hit just pathetic managing
god Scott. You only hit fastballs apparently? You just whiffed on two hangers in a row after looking at the first one and whiffed two nights ago on one to also end the game.
He could've gone another inning. Then he just basically threw in the towel by going to Santos. We all knew how that was going to turn out. He also wasted Joc. The worst part about Greinke coming out was that he hit the hardest ball of the night for the Dodgers. It isn't like Greinke can't hit and there wasn't anyone on base. If only they could chalk this loss against Santos and DBB, it would only be right.
greinke wasn't at his best control-wise but he battled and made really only one mistake he earned the right to at the very least go out and start the 7th further, by donnie stacking the lineup with all rh hitters, he boxed himself into a corner should have kept agon in the lineup so he'd have at least one rh ph available and i know grandal was there, but you don't burn your 2nd catcher unless you have to just a very poorly managed game :mattingly:
Did not see the game. We will not get a title until Donnie Dum Dum is gone. He keeps the curse of the McCourts alive.
Didn't watch the game and I know the offense didn't do much so eventually it didn't matter, but I felt like Hatcher woulda been a good choice for the 8th. Dudes been struggling so you get him in a close spot but not protecting a lead. He's still a much better option then Santos IMO. Maybe he wasn't available but i feel like Santos hasn't shown he should be in any game where the deficit or lead is less then 3
