On this episode of “Dugout Blues,” Jared Massey (Dodger Blue) and I record one of the lowest-key depressing podcast to date.
The season ended on Saturday night with Clayton Kershaw not having a particularly good game. The narrative will be reborn, but folks who believe that are dolts anyway. Also, it wouldn’t be at all surprising if Kershaw has back surgery in a couple weeks.
The Dodgers played their three sloppiest games of the season on Wednesday, Thursday and Saturday. Giving the 103-win Cubs multiple extra opportunities usually doesn’t end well … and it didn’t for the Dodgers.
We look toward the offseason a bit. We don’t go into a ton of details, but there will be a lot to talk and speculate about in the coming months.
Cody Bellinger is having a solid Arizona Fall League. Alex Verdugo is gassed and Willie Calhoun isn’t playing much. There isn’t much happening on the pitching side.
To close, a Q&A session that focuses mostly on offseason doings. Trust me, we’ll get to all that stuff in the coming episodes.
