Los Angeles Dodgers fans fed up with slugger Joey Gallo after striking out 4 times against the San Diego Padres: "It wasn’t just New York. He sucks", "Typical Gallo day"

The Los Angeles Dodgers hoped that Joey Gallo would be able to return to All-Star form when they traded for him at the deadline. Unfortunately for them, the struggles that he had with the New York Yankees have followed him across the country and continue to plague him in Los Angeles. Gallo was an All-Star in 2021, but has seen a sharp decline in 2022. With a batting average of .164 for the year and a WAR of 0.5, hopes that he will improve are dwindling. He has rattled off six home runs in his tenure with the Dodgers so far, but they are not enough to make up for his offensive deficiencies.His recent poor outing against the San Diego Padres was emblematic of the challenges he has faced all year.Jack Harris@Jack_A_HarrisFor the fourth time tonight, Joey Gallo has struck out That's the most he's had in a game with the Dodgers.

Going into the playoffs as the favorites is both a gift and a curse. It means that they are the best team in the league, but also the team under the most pressure.Anything short of a World Series championship will be seen as a failure for the Dodgers. To be remembered as a truly great team, they have to win the games that matter the most in October. The Dodgers will have that opportunity in a few short weeks.
