Oh I hear you but just because Roberts starts with him it does not mean he has to hang in there with him. We have seen him enough times get into jams that he cannot get out of. He needs to be pulled at the first sign of trouble. Dodgers cannot afford to fall behind early and hope to stay in it. Kershaw has the potential to be lights out but if that guy does not show up, don't care who he is, he has to be pulled.

Might think I am nuts but I cannot help but wonder if the Dodgers would be better off using several guys for a couple of innings in lieu of a starter.

Could Counsell be the managerial savant of the future ???

Fascinating stat from last night's game:

The top four spots in the Red Sox batting order went 0-for-28. And that's never happened before in major league history.

Another record. Madsen lets 7/7 inherited runners score. Dave Roberts is clueless.

Abysmal managing. That's two straight pitchers in complete command Roberts has yanked. WTF.

Raise your hand if you believe that Rich Hill could have pitched a complete game giving up less than 9 runs.

Based on what Roberts said Hill told him before Hill's final inning, I don't think either Roberts or Hill would have their hand raised...

Exactly Frank. Bullpen by committee. Just another evolution of the game, maybe.
