Dave Roberts has just announced another monstrous addition to his team, as he tends to solidify his team walls with this monumental deal.

Dave Roberts has just announced another monstrous addition to his team, as he tends to solidify his team walls with this monumental deal.

The Dodgers were nine games out of first place in the National League West on May 8 of this season, despite having advanced to Game 7 of the World Series the previous year. After about a week, they were still 8 1/2 games out of first place but 10 games below.500. And that’s when Dave Roberts’ group got to work.
We frequently discuss blue-collar sports teams. This season, in a very glitzy metropolis in Los Angeles, that turned into Dodger Blue.
On Wednesday, just hours before Yasiel Puig hit a big home run in the bottom of the 10th inning, similar to Chris Taylor’s the night before, I was discussing all of that with Roberts, a guy who has always been easy to root for. Puig’s blast would help the Dodgers sweep the Rockies and take a commanding lead in the NL West by two and a half games.

Roberts stated, “I’ve witnessed a group of men on a team that I never stopped believing in, now proving that belief.” I had been betting all along that this would work out for the better in the end. And given that we experienced all of the injuries we suffered and missed four or five months of action, our current situation is really satisfying.”But nobody offered an explanation here. Our players never stopped taking the initiative, playing the game that was in front of them, buying in, and supporting one another. And being a part of it has been such an inspiring experience.”
Roberts held back. He is aware that the season is not yet over. Since there are never certain things in baseball, he is aware that there are no guarantees for what has grown to be a very fascinating and compelling baseball team. When Roberts was a member of the Red Sox in 2004, the team was three outs from winning the American League Championship Series and behind 0-3 at the time. Roberts discovered this. Then, in the ninth inning of Game 4 at Fenway Park, Roberts tagged out for Kevin Millar after he received a walk from the legendary Mariano Rivera. Millar then stole the most renowned base in Red Sox history—possibly even postseason history.
You are somewhat aware of all the inspiring events that followed for the 2004 Red Sox.

Roberts makes the series better
After all this time, Roberts’ Dodgers still have work to do. They have three series left in the regular season left against the Padres, D-backs, and Giants, who always threaten Los Angeles. The Padres looked like they might run away from the Dodgers and everyone else in the NL West early. Nevertheless, his Dodgers have made a lot of progress from their May 16 position of 16–26 to where they are now.
“Eight and nine games back is a lot of ground to cover, even in May,” Roberts stated. Panic, however, is something that neither a manager nor a team can do. Rather, we simply started working. We simply performed a great job of attempting to win that day, game after game. It remains the most effective method for removing pressure, noise, and expectations. But despite everything, we understand that as Dodgers, we have to produce. Both the teams facing us and we are aware of this. The Red Sox, Cubs, and Yankees are familiar with that. It’s part of the territory to fall but also to be expected to get back up on your own. And we carried out that action.Right now, September feels like October baseball. We’re already deep in the postseason baseball season, and as the Dodgers, we may have an advantage because of what we went through previously. Every day, I witness it from our guys. I can see how Justin Turner’s past experiences—dating back to the Dodgers’ disappointing postseason loss in 2015—have given him the self-assurance necessary to assume the role of leader he does now for us.”
Roberts concluded by saying, “I think our fans expect those big moments from the Dodgers, given the kind of big moments we’ve had just this week.” and think they ought to have significant occasions like them each year.”
