After losing three in a row, the Los Angeles Dodgers are on the verge of being swept at home by one of the worst teams in baseball, the Cincinnati Reds. My question is, after last year’s blunder in the World Series when Dave Roberts started a struggling Darvish over a ready Kershaw and with the way they are performing thus far, how does this guy still have a job? He is incompetent. With that said, the Dodgers should be able to get back in the Win column today because the Reds will send Luis Castillo to the hill. Castillo has been shaky at best, with a record of 2-4, a soaring ERA of 6.47, and a 1.54 WHIP. The Dodgers will counter with the lefty Rich Hill. Hill is a top ranked hurler and has been struggling since coming off of the DL but it’s just a matter of time before he finds his groove and that will be today. The Dodgers are 7-1 in Hill’s last 8 starts against teams with a losing record and he is 4-2 in his career against the Reds with an ERA of 3.80.
