RE: An Offer Yu Can't Refuse - Cubs Sign Darvish to Six-Year, $126M Deal

A lot of other Dodger fans I know and myself aren't that sad to see him go, he really disappointed us in the World Series. I think the fault of his Game 7 shortcomings falls more on Dave Roberts though.

Sort:  

Hard to hate on a guy for just a handful of postseason innings though. He certainly would've helped the Dodgers rotation in 2018

He no doubt he would have. I wouldn't categorize it as hate but a lot of people just weren't begging for the guy to come back. It was an emotional series and we came so damn close. Tough one to lose.

Yeah, I get that. Still better to have gotten there and lost, than to not get there at all. (Said by a bitter Tigers fan re: 2006 and 2012)

Oh you understand the pain then...twice over. Yea I think when the dust settles and the results are in from this dodger era we can look back and say that. It was such an amazing series. both teams played their heart out. Baseball is crazy man. I think it's a much harder path back to the World Series compared to say the NBA Finals. Superstars seem to have more command over the outcome in basketball than baseball.

Yeah, for sure, there's so much parity. And with the second wild card in play, so many teams have a chance to get in, and from there its just whoever gets hot at the right time. Still a great time to be a Dodgers fan as the organization is loaded, but it would be a damn shame to go through the entire Kershaw era without a ring.
