He has failed to win the pennant in his last two seasons and his time with the organization looks limited.Fabian Espinoza@fabianosky420The thing that bothers me the most..... Why the fuck did Dave Roberts lift Anderson after 5. That was fucking key.92The thing that bothers me the most..... Why the fuck did Dave Roberts lift Anderson after 5.

Tyler Anderson pitches a phenomenal game into the 5th and gets pulled. The Dodgers have another amazing season with another disappointing ending.

I’ll take anyone else at the helm at this point.His decision to pull Tyler Anderson and go into the bullpen against the Padres has to be the final straw. The starting pitcher was crusing when Roberts pulled him after five innings. It was a baffling decision that cost the Dodgers.Los Angeles Dodgers will look to dust themselves off and bounce back next seasonManager Dave Roberts looks on during a game against the San Diego Padres in game three at PETCO ParkThe team currently has the second-highest payroll in baseball, according to Spotrac. Only the New York Mets spent more on their 40-man roster. After a disappointing conclusion, fans are calling for change.Trea Turner, Justin Turner, David Price and Joey Gallo are all entering free agency in the offseason.

Gonna have to cough up the bag no matter how big it isWith regards to Bellinger, he has failed to live up to expectations. The 2019 National League MVP has been subpar recently. This season, he has a .210/.265/.389 slash line and an abysmal .654 OPS. That's not good enough for an organization like the Dodgers. To make matters worse, he didn't even start the crucial final game versus the Padres.Klein25@Klein25That was Cody Bellinger's last at bat in a Dodgers uniform.1997147That was Cody Bellinger's last at bat in a Dodgers uniform.The organization will have to dust themselves off and hope to rebuild for next season. After reaching three World Series in the previous five seasons, a loss in the ALDS isn't going to cut it.
