Howie, Howie, Howie. What’s a veteran second baseman to do? Not this, of course. Never this. It’s so silly that it’s somewhat amazing it’s even being discussed. But, as the kids say, you went there.
You went and ripped people for ripping the Dodgers.
Which raises two immediate questions: 1) Why? and, 2) Exactly what critics are you talking about?
Not the Los Angeles media, which has been remarkably soft in its criticism of the Dodgers. They’re playing pretty well and execs Andrew Friedman and Farhan Zaidi have mostly been given a first-year pass. The biggest complaint is that the richest team in baseball history is not close to dominant.
