This
week the Dodgers picked up Phillies’ second baseman Chase Utley, which will put
LA’s payroll at $298.5 million, give or take a few bucks. The Dodgers were also no-hit Friday night in
Houston by the fairly anonymous Mike Fiers.
Don Mattingly and company have a 1-1/2 game over the Giants in the
National League West and right now wouldn’t qualify for the playoffs if they
fall out of first.
Who
do you think is rolling over in his grave harder and faster, Branch Rickey or
Walter O’Malley? Neither of those baseball
titans ever bought a championship. And if
their clones were going to spend all that money, they would at least have a
plan. Right now, the Dodgers look like
George Steinbrenner playing Beat the Clock.
A
bit of advice, guys: Only losers panic,
and spending all that cash is a sure sign of panic.
