Managers/Bean Counters have taken excitement, the chance to see something truly special, away from everyone; They've made every game basically the same; unmemorable; just another boring page in the book of a season.

Spot on Steve. And I happen to think that the Dodgers are among the worst when it comes to strictly following a script. I’m probably just getting old and cantankerous (at 43), but the truly special moments in the game (or maybe the opportunity to witness a truly special moment in the game) seem to be much fewer and further between these days.
