Murphy was right about EVERYTHING

[adambr2]

I agree that Murphy did not aggressively enough try to fix the offensive problems in the lineup. At the end of the day he is a manager who will go down with his guys. Every lefty in the Brewer lineup gave Murphy multiple reasons to sit on the bench or be dropped in the lineup and Yelich and Turang really let him down as they remained at the top of the lineup until the bitter end. Mona never got an opportunity and the decision to prioritize the value the defense from Ortiz did not pay off.

Ultimately though, there was nothing that Murphy could have done differently to win this series, at best maybe we could have swung a game. The hitters that Arnold provided him did not hit and that’s where the story ended.

Also, Go Figure: Dodgers minor league payroll is ranked 26th.  

And MLB roster payroll is ranked #1. 🤔Hmmmmm? 

Me thinks the real Dodger minor league system is all the MLB.

That means absolutely nothing. The Dodgers have a very good farm system.
