Anyways Hot Stove League begins,Braves still looking for a manager. 
Roberts’ decision to play Rojas was a pretty solid move.
I’ll give the manager his props.

Both managers did a great job.Roberts’ decision to play Rojas was a pretty solid move.

As a lifetime Braves fan, I am curious to see who their next manager will be.Anyways Hot Stove League begins,Braves still looking for a manager.
What an incredible World Series. I was rooting for the Jays but congratulations to the Dodgers.
That was. Putting ohtani out in the third was horrible.Roberts’ decision to play Rojas was a pretty solid move.

Pulling glasnow early was highly questionable.
It worked out but yoshi going out was questionable
Fair enough.
Ohtani didn’t look like he had his best stuff all series, imho, but it’s the end of the season and nobody is 100 %. Ohtani being relied upon for pitching and hitting WAS asking a lot, but then again, he’s getting paid a lot. And it’s tough for a manager to sit the studs in pressure situations. I suspect if Vesia and/or Scott had been available, the pitching rotations for the Dodgers would have been more…coherent. Roberts did seem to be resorting to “pitching by committee” at the end of the series, but so did Schneider. And Schneider’s charges served up three home runs at critical moments, so…
Side note: That game 3 eighteen inning marathon screwed up the pitching for the rest of the series, imho. And extra innings in game 7 was the cherry on top. I will return to a point I made after game 3: It’s a damn good thing Yoshi didn’t have to pitch in that game 3 marathon. (Remember, Yoshi was getting ready to come in just before Freddie hit his walk off homer.) If Yoshi had pitched an inning or two in game 3, then who knows…
Fate is fickle - and she was on the Dodgers’ side in the end. (There were a couple of veeeeeery close calls / plays that could have changed the outcome dramatically - especially that Rojas throw to home).
Great series. Great game 7. Great win for the Dodgers and their fans. Great fight from the Jays and their fans. Great day for baseball.
Vesia and Scott are both lefty relievers, which helps a manager quite a bit.
Vesia was clearly the bigger loss, but a healthy Scott could have helped as well, imho.
No. He was less trustworthy than Treinen...and thats impressive.Vesia and Scott are both lefty relievers, which helps a manager quite a bit.
Vesia was clearly the bigger loss, but a healthy Scott could have helped as well, imho.
Not sure if you followed the Dodgers all season but he blew sooooo many games. The Dodgers led the league in comes from behind but also led the league in blown games. He was miserable.

One of the greatest WS I can remember for Dodger history. Call it fate, destiny, or whatever it's all about timing and breaks. The "little things" that happened throughout the series (ball stuck resulting in ground rule double, base running miscues, timely hits and HR's, forgotten players who step up, etc) made for an exciting series. Buying a team doesn't make you an instant winner, it helps no question, but you need chemistry and the right breaks. Go Dodgers 
Don’t get me wrong. I’m suggesting that Scott was dealing with an undiagnosed health issue during his struggles, and a healthy Scott could / would have helped.
Scott, in his depleted form, was an absolute liability. However, the guy was an all-star in 2024, so I’m giving him the benefit of the doubt.
Losing an all-star caliber lefty pitcher (Scott) and another solid lefty reliever (Vesia) for whatever reasons made life tough for Roberts.

The Dodgers were better off with Scott off. They rehabbed Roki, and may give Will Klein more of a shot.Don’t get me wrong. I’m suggesting that Scott was dealing with an undiagnosed health issue during his struggles, and a healthy Scott could / would have helped.

Tanner Scott will be on the payroll next year and will have to re-prove himself. I hope he regains his form. He was absolutely dogshit all year for us.
Treinen should be sent to an island and left to fend for himself. He is dead to me.

The very best video from the Dodger's celebration? Clayton Kerswaw's family jumping into his arms in the infield, and the future Hall of Famer on tears. Going out in style, on top.
Love your fire.
Your team just won back to back World Series and you are still demanding more (perfection?).
That ^ bodes well for a three-peat. I hope my Brewers can spoil your plans.
