    hmmm…

    ROBERTS: “We just don’t have the guys who steal bases. We’re just not constructed that way. That’s just the facts. I just don’t like giving up outs or giving up bases. If there’s right opportunities to steal a base, we’ll do that. But it’s just not part of our offense.”​

    FRIEDMAN: “I’d like to have more stolen bases. I haven’t dug into it. But I would like to have it be more. I think we have a number of guys that can pick spots and get to double digits. A lot of guys can do that.”

    BLUEZOO: " Once in a while you can score an important run and even win the game by bunting"...

    ROBERTS: " I think I may have heard of that bunt thing, but we're not constructed that way anyway...even if I were familiar with it"...

    There's never been a great baseball man who EVER said anything this vapid.

    Roberts isn't smart. It's all been smoke & oakum so far. He's now clearly demented & incapable of being a manager at this level

    If he still has this job by Labor Day, it's on Friedman.

    One more hour and we would've allowed a month to pass without contributing to this thread. Can't have that so I'm here to say, "Fuck Roberts!"

    He's such a loser. This morning's game... 10-10 in the 7th, Dodgers have two on with one out, Barnes is up. 0 for 3 Barnes. You know, the guy hitting less than 1.00. The guy who already got his May hit back on the 16th. Critical point in the game. On the bench he has his all-star worthy catcher, the one with a batting average higher than Barnes' OPS. No brainer pinch hit, right? WRONG! He lets Barnes bat, strike out, and register LOBs number four and five for the game... and Dodgers lose by one.

    At least Smith got to PH with two out and bases empty in the ninth... for Thompson who was on base all four times in this game. The brilliance shining off our manager is blinding.

    Yeah... fuck him.

    Asked #Dodgers manager Dave Roberts if Noah Syndergaard is going to make his next start in Cincinnati: "Um, I don’t know. The hope is that he does. Right now I just don’t want to answer that question."

    Dave Roberts on Noah Syndergaard: "Ironically, the stuff and velocity was the best it's been this entire year in his last start. But the command might've been one of his worst as far as missing out over, and the secondary wasn't what it has been early."

    "So if we could meld the velocity with the secondary, I think it could be pretty fun to watch."

    Matthew Moreno on Twitter: "Dave Roberts on Noah Syndergaard: "Ironically, the stuff and velocity was the best its been this entire year in his last start. But the command might've been one of his worst as far as missing out over, and the secondary wasn't what it has been early."" / Twitter


    Fun to watch??? Is this guy for real? He needs to decide if he's a manager or a fan.

    And as far as Noah, I'll give him this much. At least he's saying the right things and taking full responsibility for his sucktitude. It's evident that it's eating him up. Maybe that's part of the problem - he needs to figure out how to get his confidence back.
