    Manny's the problem?

    I can't but fully agree with ham_loaf: I didn't see any slouching on Manny's part. I saw not enough other players dependably getting on base; I saw a crazy "who's the pitcher this second" in Game 4. I saw errors, too many, in Game 5 when it just was not the time for any of that nonsense. Game 5 I saw too many arguments "what was that last call?!" arguments with the ump which could've only been displaced frustration.

    Bummer for us Dodger fans. But to place the onus on Manny is kinda weird. My 2 cents.
