On the heels of 4 straight walk off/9th inning losses going back to the Rockies, I'm in full disbelief/panic mode.

Looking deeper at August, and what has been so awful about this run for LA:

Starting on August 8, the Dodgers have lost 10 games against 4 wins.

Of those 10 losses, 9 of them have been on the back of the bullpen.

Of those 9, only 2 were not in the 9th inning or later.

August 8; 2-3 L to the A's; at home OAK scores a run on the 8th off of Chargois.
August 10; 4-5 L to the Rockies; at home COL scores 2 in the 7th off of Rosscup.
August 11; 2-3 L to the Rockies; at home COL scores 3 in the 9th off of Chargois.
August 12; 3-4 L to the Rockies; at home COL scores 1 in the 9th off of Floro.
August 13; 2-5 L to the Giants; on the road, SF scores 4 in the 9th off of Alexander.
August 14; 1-2 L to the Giants; on the road, SF scores 1 in the 9th off of Maeda.
August 15; 4-3 W over the Giants; LA wins in 12, but SF scores 3 in the 8th off of Ferguson to tie the game.
August 18; 4-5 L to the Mariners; at home SEA scores 1 in the 10th off of Ferguson.
August 20; 3-5 L to the Cardinals; on the road, STL scores 2 in the 9th off of Jansen.
August 22; 1-3 L to the Cardinals; on the road, STL scores 1 in the 8th and 2 in the 9th off of Ferguson and Jansen.

It may be the most horrific set of team failures in recent memory. Incredibly demoralizing. No faith left at all in that bullpen, or with the offense frankly.
