Sometimes I just randomly remember that the Dodgers sat back and watched an injured Ohtani play himself into the ground in July and August for no reason and ended up nuking their shot at a 3-peat lmfao

Let’s hope for better sense next time from Shohei and the Dodgers as they navigate his health and physical well-being.
“I’m going to go back to the drawing board in terms of treatment, training program, and see what I can come up with for next season.”

A literal shell of Ohtani was still better than Mookie and Freddie. This is the core they are gonna be running with for the few remaining years of Ohtani’s prime. Yikes😭
Never seen a defending champion, in any sport, roll over and hand a series away like that. Absolutely pathetic
At the end of the day, the only chance they had is if they got at least ONE true ace performance from their 4 aces and sadly they got none
One hard hit ball in two months gaslit Roberts into leading off with this guy.
When the obituary of the 2026 Dodgers is written, it will be 90% Robert’s handling of Ohtani all season.
Ohtani needlessly playing himself into the ground all August and September and showing up to the playoffs as a shell of himself literally feeds these dumb narratives. And he brought it all on himself, so hard to feel bad for him honestly
Atp it’s irrelevant whether Ohtani plays or not. There is no decent alternative anyway.
The damage has already been done. This organization sat back and allowed their best hitter to play himself into a broken shell and killed their chances at a 3peat. It’s as simple as that
He is broken. He played himself into this broken state by downplaying his injuries all season and refusing to go on the IL in July when they didn’t even need him. Now he’s useless to them. There’s nothing commendable about how Ohtani handled himself this season
Ohtani has put himself in a near impossible position now. Either perform, or the entire loss will be blamed on him.
This is why Judge was smart to just be honest with himself and the team and sit it out
Absolute clown show 🤡
This is a perfect example of how Ohtani has been gaslighting Roberts all season about his injuries.
Impossible to defend this garbage
