Clayton Kershaw

lol dewey, i like your realistic view of the team. i visit a couple dodgers fan sites and they are mostly so myopic and prone to homerism. when they lose there's always a next game, when the season is over there's always next year...puig sucks, well his defense is good and he has a better attitude. meanwhile the team has had the same problem the last 4-5 years and the giants has won 3ws.

...well at least 70% of its fanbase can't watch them on tv now for 3 years, that could actually be a blessing in disguise. i'm a big fan but it's been the same losing loop for awhile. i support what the front office is doing but i'm not sure when that will translate to on-field success. seems like they're just buying lottery tickets with these marginal signings mccarthy kazmir or international gamble hoping to hit big on of them.

Kershaw and Seager are the only source of legit excitement with this team. Considering the payroll that is pathetic. You then have the hope of youth in Joc and Trayce, the latter a pleasant surprise. Then you have great players in decline in Gonzalez and Utley. I hated the signing of Chase which shows what I know. Then there is Kenley who must be shaking his head in his last year with the Dodgers. The rest of the roster is mix of injury prone, overpaid, underperforming has beens, never wases, and mental midgets with no backbone. There has been zero mental toughness from the mound sans ace and closer. Sick of homers served up in moments of mental weakness and lack of execution. They need fewer hugs from Roberts and more boots in the arse. Too many starting batters hitting around .240. Years of bad contracts on the books, this ain't changing for years. The lack of grit and guts on this team is astounding. There's always the hope of the returning mediocre injury prone dross over the next two months. That's how I see it. That doesn't even include the big f u to the fans and the TV situation. But I have time warner.
