Dave Roberts should get fired for starting Yu Darvish.

[Auto Donk]

Why would you start that guy and not Alex Wood?

because he's the guy that bet $14 MILLION on the Astros

[jayc88]

If Kershaw pitches and gives up 3 runs you would have blamed it on the manager as well.
i have not seen a single playoff series where you didnt blame the manager of the losing team

[jjgold]

He should be fired

[lakerboy]

Imo you always have to put the ball in your best player's hands in game 7 if he's healthy/ready. Denying Kershaw that right will be something that is talked about for many years.

Dodgers had other plans.

I thought they would win too. Figured it would be high scoring. Like 8-6 or something.

Dodgers had 2 men on base nearly every inning.

That's what happens when you're not clutch.

Hitting wins ships bro.

Not pitching.

It's been proven.

Times have changed.

Yes it was proven bro. Lol you watch the series? The dodgers got shut down except one game and in that game they scored in the ninth. Besides game 5 the dodgers did dick all with runners on base. Houston pitchers held the dodgers in check. Take a closer look. How did Cody Bellinger do besides striking out almost every at Bat. How about Justin Turner? Puig did hardly anything. The dodgers scored 22 runs in 6 games besides game 5 which was an anomaly. The stros scored 21 in 6 games. That's 43 runs in 6 games for an average of 7.15 runs per game. Your trying to convince yourself. Keep trying. Pitching wins titles.

[mackave]

Kershaw and Jansen came in and didn't give up a run.. Start them and maybe the final is Dodgers 1 Houston 0..

We'll never know thanks to Roberts..

[pilebuck13]

Kershaw on 2 days rest after giving up a bunch of runs? It's hindsight but have to think that you could get at least a few good innings out of Yu. Plus if you did give up runs, rather have given them up in early innings when you have a chance to come back. How is this thread not about how incredible the stros pitchers were last night?? I had nothing on game so not biased.

What would indicate you would get a few good innings out of yu against the Astros? Absolutely nothing. Terrible decision

[Cuse0323]

He lost the series in game 2. It was inevitable.

[Bcatswin]

BEST TEAM WON, NO CHANCE DAVE COULD OF CHANGED IT. GSM!

[pilebuck13]

No numbers or stats would agree with starting him rotation rest only explanation lol? If Roberts was smart, he would have started kershaw and if he shit the bed 90% of the headlines would have been on kershaw. No roberts eats this and should be shit canned...cito Gaston only black manager to win World Series go figure.

[RudyRuetigger]

Jmobile is betting dodgers in game 8 incase you didn't know

[Ghenghis Kahn]

the whole team choked not just one person.

Bellinger choke

Darvish choke

Kershaw didn't choke though should have started him.

He's the best pitcher in the game

And he's obviously you're best pitcher Roberts fukk.

That was the chance.

Bellinger choke

Darvish choke

That was the chance.

Kershaw choked on a fat one in game 5 with chance to put series away for all intensive purposes!

Imo Dude made great decision not starting kershaw game 4, they got the W and had his ace in position to put a strangle hold on series in game 5, kershaw got all kinds of run support and did what he does best and lost his team the series..

Did Roberts get out managed a great deal in this series? Yes. But he also put his team in position and mr "greatest pitcher" got his ass handed to him, the manager can't make his guys perform!!

Darvish numbers were terrible against Astros.

[2daBank]

Darvish numbers were terrible against Astros.

Yea not saying starting him game 7 was a great idea. Just think he did make great move way he went about game 4-5 and Kershaw just let him down.
