First of all, the keyword is “Don’t Panic.” OK, it’s two words, but you get my drift. In both games against the Padres, the Dodgers have played like a team that has had a number of off days and is not sharp and does not feel a sense of urgency. Actually, here are the four things the Dodgers need to do to beat the Padres.
- The Stars Need to Come Out,
- The Starting Pitching Needs to be a lot better;
- The Defense needs to tighten up; and
- The Team needs a leader to step up.
