Dodgers (Metaphorically) Suck

OK, look, we all knew this could happen. And it did. So we're going to talk about it. While drinking. The boys are discussing the Dodgers series and if it matters as much as it hurts. Also, they're checking in on the bullpen. Were the reports of a dumpster fire just a bunch of smoke? In the lightning round: Should Soler be hitting lower in the line up? Should the Giants and Dodgers brawl? Do the Giants need to run more?
