Dodgers pitcher Noah Syndergaard throws during the first inning against the Washington Nationals at Dodger Stadium on Wednesday. (Ashley Landis / Associated Press)Noah Syndergaard beat himself up as thoroughly as the Washington Nationals pummeled him on Wednesday, the Dodgers right-hander adding some doom to the afternoon gloom in Chavez Ravine with another shoddy start in a 10-6 Dodgers loss. But Syndergaard is not the only weak link on the pitching staff. The Dodgers are tied for 21st in the major leagues with a 4.46 team ERA after leading baseball with a 2.80 ERA last season. The bullpen has been even worse, ranking 26th with a 4.54 ERA after ranking second with a 2.87 ERA in 2022.
