Dodgers: Fixing the Closer Issue, Trayce Thompson’s Lack of Playing Time & More!
In this week’s Blue Heaven Roundtable, Brook wants to talk about Craig “Krumble” Kimbrel following his Tuesday night loss. Is he the guy the Dodgers will still be turning to come October? And if not, who should Dave Roberts turn to for the final three outs each day in the postseason?
