I say this because you and I know full well that Dave Roberts is going to play the entire B-squad during the rubber game against the Snakes on getaway day. Will Venable, Scott Van Slyke, A.J. Ellis, and the execrable Kike Hernandez will all probably be in the lineup. That

The Dodger’s front office may be incompetent, the coaching staff useless and the manager clueless, but the players are really 100% at fault for the club’s season long malaise.
