If the Dodgers had a normal lineup I'd be really confident.  Scherzer isn't great against lefties and the Dodgers are putting 8 left-handed hitters out there.  I mean, who does that?  I think what we should have done is throw all our LH relievers out there and try to get through 9 innings.   Save Scherzer for game 1 against the Cubs.  I mean what a freakish team...  8 left handed hitters, come on.  Are you serious right now?

Are they supposed to put righthanded hitters out there to be nice?  Their team has several platoons on it.  It's been that way. Should they demand that teams not stack lineups with righties against Kershaw and Hill because who does that?  Should Espinosa and Lobaton be required to bat lefty because switch-hitting, who does that?
