One of Dave Roberts’s most important jobs as the Dodgers manager is to handle the uber-talented starting rotation. Each starter has a very different, distinctive personality – they can’t all be managed the same. Especially on the days they start. Roberts revealed which starter he talks to the most on the day they take the mound.
“I would say I talk to Walker the most, then Trevor, and then Julio and Clayton – I don’t talk to on the start days.”
Kershaw is notoriously robotic on his start days so no surprise there.
