    How many more minutes after the Dodgers game 5 loss until Mattingly is fired?

    The most hilarious thing is the Marlins have been waiting for the Dodgers usual choke session to happen so they can talk to him before making a decision.

    One of the worst ever.

    Dodgers fans have to be eager for the new manager hunt.

    Probably not long... This was heart breaking.. I really thought the Dodgers were gonna pull this out with Greinke on the mound at home. I'm devastated almost...

    I don't like Donny as a manager but how do you blame him for the loss? Things just didn't go his way too bad too I think they would have been a problem for the cubs...mets vs jays World Series should be fun

    Blame him for what loss?
    He didn't do anything bad in game 5, no one ever said that. He fukks up as much as possible though, just didn't have many opportunities to do it much tonight. The game played itself out on his side. I would like to know what Ethier was in Mattingly's grill about in the dugout, basically making donny baseball his bitch giving him an earful and Mattingly sitting there taking it like a slave for a good 20+ seconds.
    All he's done is underachieve with early exits with an uncapped 300+ million yearly payroll every single year.

    Dodgers don't have ice in their veins. Wasting a talent like Kershaw --- if he never gets to a world series -- is unforgivable. Put a team around him that can hit the ball and play good defense. It's not that complicated. The best player for the dodgers was Turner. Why? A white guy for one. Two he can hit. Three he has ice in veins. Four he can run bases. Five he can play defense. If dodgers can grab 5 more guys like that, and keep 2 power hitters, they will be in good shape.

    I Can build a championship caliber baseball team if you give me Kershaw and Greinke and I know nothing about baseball. Bring on an expert and you have a ring.

    The series loss....I didn't watch the game football was on...eithier is a cancer he's an asshole this well known. Im all for Donny being fired as a dodger fan but at some point I think the blame has to fall on the players but you can't fire the players I get it ....but let's face it dodgers as a whole are soft selfish and the opposite of tough ....they're LA sorr but it is what it is. Puig showing up late for a playoff game they're a mess.

    It's not possible to coach overpaid players.

    Damn bro what the hell? Probably shouldn't tell ppl you're a dodger fan when you aren't watching their biggest game of the season for an irrelevant random toilet bowl football matchup. Shame on you lol
    Hope you won your bet

    His management of the 9th was poor. Have Pederson bat for himself - need a base runner or blast and he can get you either. Then have Utley PH for pitcher's spot. AJ Ellis in that spot - poor!

    Just for that blunder at third that ended up tieing the game,deserves a fire. I mean how is your third baseman in the middle of the field,what the hell was he doing.

    Wished they would have kept him. Always guaranteed and early exit for us Giants fans to laugh at.
