Something I notice about the Dodgers is the attitude in the dugout. Few players seem to connect w/each other. There is a lot of talent, but it appears they are playing as 9 individual ballplayers instead of a team. Compare that to the N.Y. Yankees. Lots of big talent and egos, but it’s common to see a Yankee who just struck out to talk w/the man on deck about the types of pitches thrown. Those of us who play baseball understand the path to winning is when the entire team plays as a team.
Mattingly was a Me First player and he was a terrible manager on just about all levels.
