Swept and spanked soundly by the Pirates, the Dodgers look like a team that has no management, no coaching, no discipline, no enthusiasm, no guts and no direction. They look like a total trainwreck… only worse! The Dodgers can’t give up on Jim Johnson, yet, but they can’t afford Johnson and Peralta as Designated Arsonists in the pen. On the other hand, maybe they have to give up on both of them. Johnson’s problems were lots of bad luck, but still! They should leave Peralta in Pittsburgh!
When all of your pitchers are crap (and all of them have been lately), one has to look at the coaching and manager.
