Former Dodgers GM Sounds Off on Padres Disrespect To Clayton Kershaw, Inability to Beat LA

Ned Colletti only states the facts

Following a four-game series win in San Diego against the Padres, many people in the Dodgers community sounded off about LA's dominating effort. 

One of the more vocal personalities on social media was former Dodgers General Manager Ned Colletti. 

In a tweet sent out after the Dodgers' 13-7 win on Monday, Colletti put up a one-sided stat to remind both Dodgers and Padres fans how uneven the rivalry has been. 

A quick update: as u may recall, on May 5 in SD, the @Dodgers and Clayton Kershaw lost. The Petco scoreboard operator put up a meme of a crying Kershaw.  Since then the Dodgers have beaten SD 8 of 9 and SD has
lost 10 games in the standings. pic.twitter.com/RQy7cs56tX

Colletti has been a part of the Dodgers organization since 2005. In his time with the team, he has also been an analyst with Sportsnet LA and Senior Advisor to the President. 

While he had no part in building this team's roster, Colletti has been very active on social media as the season has gone on. Most of his content includes quotes tweets of iconic Dodger moments. 

The tweet about the Dodgers success over the Padres is true and it is not new for the team to have San Diego's number.

Other than last year's NLDS where the Dodgers were eliminated by the Padres, it's very rare to see LA lose against its NL West rival. 

Since 2021, the Dodgers are 26-12 against the Padres in the regular season. 

When the Pares put up the crying Kershaw meme back in May it made a lot of Dodgers fans mad. It seems that the team also took offense to it and are making the Padres pay.
