I like that we gave Philly 2/3 of their OF.

I’d also like to thank Broxton for screwing my fantasy team last night.

“Hi, my name’s Jonathan Broxton, and even though I have a 98 MPH fastball, I overthrew it about 40 times to a guy who hasn’t been in the majors for 4 years and a guy who usually doesn’t OBP higher than .320. I’m so good!”

Dammit.

This is kind of an important week for my fantasy team, Chad. Stop sucking.

Did anybody forget that Roberto Kelly was on the Dodgers, and we traded Henry Rodriguez for him? Man, we blow.

by Tango and Cash on Aug 25, 2008 5:02 PM PDT reply actions

Did Henry Rodriguez ever do anything once he left?

He hit about 140 homers in 5 years, including 36 with Montreal the very next season after he was traded.

by Tango and Cash on Aug 25, 2008 5:11 PM PDT up reply actions

Oh. At least he was terrible for us though.

We’re not as good when Manny isn’t hitting .600.

Casey Blake is rapidly approaching hole status.

I’m gonna guess Manny had something to do with that triple.

Thanks Chad for walking 5 guys tonight. I hate you.

by Tango and Cash on Aug 25, 2008 6:09 PM PDT reply actions

And thanks to the Dodgers’ offense for not scoring off Brett Myers. You’re ruining my chances of winning the division in my fantasy league.

So...

if we don’t pull this out is it officially time to call it a season?

If it wasn't for college football I'd probably have given up on sports.

Not with seven games left with Arizona. 3.5 back is a bigger deficit than it seems like though.

This would be a bad time of year for Chan Ho to turn into a pumpkin.

My internet has been awful all night. What’s been going on? I haven’t been able to check the score since the 6th.

by Tango and Cash on Aug 25, 2008 7:06 PM PDT reply actions

Nevermind. Just saw the score. We suck.

by Tango and Cash on Aug 25, 2008 7:07 PM PDT up reply actions

We get lots of singles, then don’t score runs.

Dodger Fever! Catch it!

This was the 12th 13 hit shutout of the retrosheet era, a record.
