Around SBN: News And Other Updates Leading Up To Pats-Giants

Dodgers are..

 

The NL West should not even be affiliated with the MLB. College teams could beat teams like the Dodgers, Giants, and Rockies who all happen to be below .500. It will barely take the winner of the NL West any more then 85 Games to solidify a seat in the playoffs. At this rate the Cubs, Phillies, and even possibly the Cardinals would kill the Dodgers. The Dodgers have a bunch of big names but low averages. The front office pays big bucks to get a little above a .200 batting average while they play, but spend half of the season in bed because they are injured. There is no way that Andrew Jones, Nomar, Furcal, and, oh yeah the dodgers have Jason Schmitt, could take them to the promise land! When was the last time Schmitt pitched? The Dodgers will not make it past the first round and that’s even if they can make it.

I know you’re trolling, but at least get the name right.

Also what kind of weird troll is this? Promoting your own blog and trolling together. Weird.

Oh, and I seem to remember a “terrible” Cards team that was around .500 sneaking into the playoffs and winning it all 2 years ago.

Terrible trolling all around.

You are retarded.

We all know the NL West sucks, but what do you expect. A bunch of young guys with potential that hasn’t been realized. Plus, when the dodgers got Schmidt, the only other big pitcher on the market was Barry Zito. Rather have Schmidt doing nothing than having Zito losing. They might also be a little better if they weren’t also missing Penny, Furcal and Pierre. By my calculations, that’s two leadoff guy and two number one starters. Tough to win like that.
