  • The MLB championship series is almost set! The Houston Astros and Texas Rangers will battle for the lone star state in the American League, while the Arizona Diamondbacks await the winner of the Philadelphia Phillies-Atlanta Braves series. The Los Angeles Dodgers postseason struggles continue after a clean sweep by their NL West rival. Many fans are blaming manager Dave Roberts for it but Colin Cowherd is not. He breaks down why Roberts is not to blame for the Dodgers struggles. He also talks Bryce Harper's fun attitude and persona, including why his presence is essential in the MLB postseason.

    Dave Roberts should have had flashbacks to the Nationals back to back HRs on Kershaw when he saw that Lance Lynn was costing us that game. He’s 100% at fault for keeping in an ace that could have been minimized. It looked like he gave up and just let Lance put us more in a hole. He should be let go and should have never gotten a contract extension to begin with. 1 chip in a shorten season with 8 years of chance after chance to get into the WS.

From my experience talking to other Dodger fans, they're the pretty ignorant. And that's the way the front office likes it. The fans keep giving them $$$. Friedman runs that show and Roberts is his puppet. The day they bring in a hard core manager like La Russa or Billy Martin (RIP,) then you'll know they're serious.

You’d be hard pressed to find a manager who has done less with more in baseball history. Like yeah maybe has an argument for this year not being his fault?

    • @lakerfan1855
      @lakerfan1855 Před 10 měsíci

      I’m not exactly a Roberts fan but I believe the bigger issue here is on the ownership. You can’t just keep buying guys for a year, get rid of them when you lose and buy some more guys next year and hope it will work. You need to establish a core, a foundation to build upon.
      Aside from that, the reality is this Dodgers team was never going to come close to winning the WS this season. Many “experts” predicted them to sneak into the wildcard. On top of that, the loss of 4 starting pitchers completely ruined any chances they might’ve had at making a deep postseason run.
      I am in no way making excuses for this team because 1. Getting swept the way they did against Arizona is truly embarrassing and 2. there are glaring issues with this lineup as well. Mookie Betts is a regular season superstar and a postseason choker. Look up his numbers in the playoffs for proof. Betts and Freeman were both awful. They got shut down by Brandon Pfaadt for christ’s sake.
      It is my belief that this lineup overachieved greatly during the regular season, behind an amazing year from Betts and Freeman. The problem is- when those guys are not amazing this team just can’t score. They have 2 regular season superstars but the rest of the lineup (outside of Martinez maybe) is nothing to write home about. I am honestly not shocked they got swept by Arizona.

    Dave Roberts absolutely shares blame here. He had the hottest pitcher in September wallowing in the bullpen. He pitched a whopping 0 innings. No appearance. That is 100% in Dave Roberts control. Not using Ryan Pepiot is asinine.

    This from the guy that thought you could trade draft picks in baseball. Dave Roberts is the one responsible for pinch hitting Barnes who bats 100 and for starting lynn over pepiot. He might not be the reason the dodgers lose but he sure isn't doing anything to help them win.

    How does the marathon vs. sprint argument make any sense? This is the postseason, which is more like the end of the marathon, not the start of a new sprint. Arizona swept the Dodgers, even without the week long break. Maybe if L.A. won Game 3 this argument would apply, but they got clapped that game too. I doubt they would have won a best of 7 either.

While the Dodgers were sluggish thinking that because they won 100 games that they"d be fine. It's the skipper to blame for not being hungry or prepared to go to war and win! Fire Dave Robert's

    @thewicked8642 Před 10 měsíci

    Roberts isn't the only one to blame, but he's not blameless either. Although the team has no 'Ace', Kershaw starting Game 1 was clearly a sentimental pick. Miller and Pepiot were pitching better than Kershaw or Lynn. Roberts said he didn't want to go with Pepiot over Lynn because he had to think about Games 4 and 5. Well you can't get to Games 4 and 5 if you don't win 1 of the first 3. So Lynn was a poor choice for Game 3 start. Especially after being down 0-2. You can say that Miller and Pepiot are too young, however Pfaadt is also a rookie and had a 3-9 record with a 5.72 ERA. So Diamondback are genius for letting a rookie start post-season games, but Dodgers would be dumb to think their rookies could succeed?

He is too buddy buddy with clayton kershaw. lance lynn should have got taken out after 2 homers. kershaw should have been taken out in game 1 way before the 4th or 5th runner was on base. Dave Roberts always interferes and he should have not gotten an extension last year.

    Definitely not on Roberts this year. Dodger pitching was depleted. None of the legit starters were available; Buehler, May, Gonsolin, Bauer, Urias all gone. And not one true closer in the bullpen. It's amazing they won 100 games.
    Offense had to score 5-6 runs a game to win. They were completely MIA. Mookie Betts didn't have a hit all series. Freeman had one.
    Maybe next year.
