Daily News: Jackson: For the Dodgers, the ‘D’ stands for Disappointment
“We can’t put a finger on any one thing,” Dodgers manager Grady Little said. “If you look at that stat sheet, you will find a combination of so many different things. But one of the biggest things that sticks out in my mind is the inconsistency of our offense. If you look back at some people’s numbers at the end of the season, it doesn’t look that bad. But when you go back through the season, that inconsistency has been there too often.”
The question, then, is why?
Why did a club that had not one, but two leadoff-type hitters at the top of the lineup struggle to score runs?
Uh...because the Rosey Milland monster has a .333 OBP?

Oh, and they put Nomar, who had the third worst season, in the 3 spot for 260 AB. The Pierre-Furcal-Garciaparra top of the order is downright abysmal.
#2 hitter .286/.328/.353 56 SB/12 CS
Quite literally the lowest OBP (and SLG) of any lineup spots. #7 hitters are hitting a combined .304/.363/.474
Not saying it matters a lot, but it sure is strange.
The Thing with Two Heads, that couldn't stop arguing with each other.
Furcal's worst season of his career: .333 OBP, .355 SLG
Pierre this year and every year: .333 OBP, .355 SLG
