Don Mattingly has endured a lot of turmoil during his short time in Los Angeles, but he is still optimistic about what the Dodgers could and should be accomplishing. "There's no reason in the world this franchise - in L.A., in a big market - shouldn't be knocking on the door every year," he said. "And I'd rather do it with a kid who's coming across the grass." "The Los Angeles Dodgers?" he said of developing players. "We should be doing everything better than everybody else. ... We shouldn't have to deal with a guy who won't run and we have to change the system for it. Shame on us if we're pushing a guy through the system who won't play the game right."
