The Dodgers’ hot streak is cooling fast—losing three of four at home to the league-leading Brewers after a blockbuster trade that made them look unstoppable. Offense is sputtering, especially against elite pitching, and costly fielding errors are mounting. Manager Dave Roberts blames poor pitch recognition and bad at-bat starts, with the team ranking near the bottom in runs and on-base percentage since July. The bullpen’s collapse—most saves blown in MLB—is adding pressure as offense struggles. But there’s hope: Blake Snell’s return, Glasnow nearing action, and Ohtani throwing bullpen sessions could resurrect their playoff run. Still, without fixing their hitting and bullpen woes soon, the “villains” of baseball may face louder questions—and a tougher road to October.
