Kershaw has been off lately when he starts a game. Gave up 3 runs in the first two inning in his last start before he settled down. Too late as they lost that one. When he gave up the home run to Rendon Roberts shoulda realized he wasn't ready and brought in Kolarek. Kolarek had Soto baffled the previous two times he faced him. It worked out in the 9th with Kelly, but considering how much he struggled why would you push your luck for another inning? Especially when he's always struggled when he goes past one inning. He had two guys in the bullpen he relied on all year and neither was used in this game. Just some baffling decisions. If its a matter of trust, Kelly should not have gone out there at all. Kershaw is known as a playoff choker and now Roberts is too. Bellinger and Seager also had a bad series. Pollack struck out most times he went to bat.

Buehler can be one. But you need two. Right now they don't have that. They do have enough offensive firepower as is. But good pitching will shut down good hitting in the playoffs. If they're content to go after another division title, I guess they can stand pat. But if they want to finally win a championship, the current roster as is ain't gonna get it done. by Hacksaw 4 years 2 months ago Total posts: 24523 Joined: Apr 15 2015 AT THE BEACH Moderator Re: The Dodgers POST #700 Alex Cora.

There’s nothing better than an old school matchup between two marquee NL franchises. BTW: if there are empty seats at Busch tonight, don’t rage. It’s like 43 degrees, windy and it stopped raining about and hour ago. I just pulled my winter hat and gloves from the basement to wear to the game. by snackdaddy 4 years 3 months ago Total posts: 9657 Joined: May 30 2015 Merced California Hall of Fame Re: The Dodgers POST #699 TOPIC AUTHOR So far the Dodgers haven't made any moves. If they think they can stand pat, they won't be a legit World Series contender. We found out what happens when you don't have two solid starters. Playoff starters. If they re-sign Ryu they'll have a couple decent regular season starters with him and Kershaw. Over the course of a season they'll win more than they lose. But they aren't solid playoff starters.
