Another commenter, @speedyclaxton21, acknowledged that this doesnât derail hopes of a three-peat, but the level of play remains below where it should be.
âEh but it doesnât really make the sâ play okay,â they wrote. âYou shouldnât be losing these game. I know people say oh itâs early and slumps happen but You donât have to play like sâ as a team just because people say itâs okay. Nvr accept anything in April that you wouldnât accept in Oct.â
Michael Sloniker pointed out that itâs still early in the season.
âMy reaction is itâs April 22nd & there are 139 games left. The 2 teams havenât played each other yet so letâs read too much into it. The Padres are playing well, good for them,â he wrote. âPersonally, Iâll start paying close attention to the standings July 1st once teams have gone through the league (especially their own division) a bit more.â
Others, like @brisketandboots, noted the Dodgers are facing some issues that should be resolved over the course of the season, such as the injuries to closer Edwin Diaz and other players like pitcher Blake Snell and shortstop Mookie Betts.
âNothing we should react to at this point. They have a real closer, but our offense is still inconsistent, we have more pieces coming off DL,â they wrote.
Several of you also let recent history be your guide, with multiple references to the back-to-back World Series championships won by the Dodgers.
âWe are back to back Champs! All good. Just waiting for October. Competition is a good thing,â wrote @maxel_matt.
âWeâve been here before,â added @SoCalGirl1208. âWe arenât back to back champions for nothing! We will rise above this. Itâs not that big of dealâŠespecially in April.â
