Kim by month:

April: .600/.647/.667 - 1.314 OPS

May: .257/.366/.400 - .766 OPS

June: .333/.422/.486 - .908 OPS

July: .292/.346/.333 - .679 OPS

August: .316/.435/.474 - .908 OPS*

*not including tonight

Truth be told, Davis and Trumbo are in some kind of freefall and the rest of the team is pressing because of it.

Kim and Jones are double play machines either way you want to bat them in the top 2 spots. Terrible situational hitting from the both of them late in the game.

I agree the team is pressing. We gave away way too many games earlier in the year because our rotation was terrible. Now the hitting is slumping and now their pressing.

They say when your struggling work on going up the middle. The last one was hit hard pitcher don't field it is a single.

He must have pretty good speed down the first-base line--almost beat out the throw to first despite hitting the ball hard.

Kim has hit into 4 DP's all year. I'd hardly call him a DP machine.

To be clear, my OP wasn't intended as a general swipe at Kim. Just an observation that he had a particularly feeble night at the plate.

Davis and Trumbo need to reach deep and get going. I agree they are the cause of the decline. Gapping hole in the middle right now.

Kim has only hit into 4 DPs this year. Personally, I think he's pressing because of the team's lack of hitting right now. He fits right into the rest of the team that seems to really press all at the same time.

    • I also went with Burnes because of his better durability. Since 2019 Snell has pitched more then 128 innings in a season one time (180 innings in 2023). While Burnes has pitched over 167 inning or more every season since becoming a full time starter in 2021. Burnes is also two years younger so in theory while a six year contract is riskier it would end at the same age as Snell on a four year deal. I'd be happy with either one, but my preference in Burnes.
    • Adding that I would go for Roki over either of them.
    • I'd go for Snell. He has true Cy Young stuff. Burnes is really good but his K rate keeps dropping and the years scare me. The box score for his playoff start was solid but he actually gave up a lot of hard contact. I just don't trust him enough to commit all those years and dollars.
    • I go Burnes because to me the higher floor is very important with this sort of deal. I feel like Snell's skillset is more on a razor's edge-- if you didn't like how Burnes pitched in August, Snell is almost certainly more prone to stretches of poor performance like that. Even if he is more dominant at other times to balance it out. Plus, the extra length of Burnes' deal is offset a bit by being 2 years younger. 
    • Snell is injury prone and Burnes is a tough workhorse.
    • Didn't see the video? The ball went maybe 15 feet before it bounced, it was rolling by the dugout.  It was nothing and the Dodgers look soft. Was he supposed to let the discarded ball stay on the field?
    • Rojas pulled from the bases in the 3rd inning after he couldn't manage 2nd to home on a Mookie single (and Ohtani couldn't 1st to 3rd behind him) as the Dodgers try to dig out of 6-1.    Rojas' limited mobility hurt the Dodgers defense on a Bogaerts ground ball where Merrill was too quick going first to second, and Rojas ended up getting no outs on a routine ground ball. Manny with a cagey zigzag baserunning move during the Padres 6-run inning off Buehler, getting into Freeman's throwing lane to put Buehler into the jam. Teoscar grand slam brings it back to 6-5 in the 3rd inning...get your popcorn ready.
