Incredibly, the Dodgers’ front office has made an even worse decision this year.
Remember, these are the same people who signed Trevor Bauer. They will have to continue living with that decision for a while.
As for their latest vanity-induced act of self-sabotage, this ambitious effort to redefine pitchers’ roles by experimenting with Max Scherzer as a closer and 20-game winner Julio Urías as something other than a starter, there’s a way back.
The Dodgers still can win this National League Championship Series.
Even after spotting the Atlanta Braves the first two games, they still can reach the World Series.
