Colorado Rockies at Los Angeles Dodgers, Oct 2, 2009 7:10 PM PDT
Joe Torre dropped a bomb on the media when he announced that last years playoff hero, Kuroda would miss the first round of the playoffs. Then he announced that Vicente Padilla would start on Sunday instead of Chad Billingsley. Who follows Wolf/Kershaw is unclear and Joe said it would depend on the opposition. Consider Sunday and tryout.
So this leaves tonights starter as our number one game starter for the playoffs. Very few people figured when Randy Wolf signed last spring that he would be our starting pitcher in the playoffs and that it would not be because of injuries but because of performance. Randy Wolf has given the Dodgers more then even the most optimistic Wolf supporter could have imagined.
Blake is back and batting sixth and this lineup looks to me like the playoff lineup. Hopefully Blake can bring some bang back into the lineup. With a day off and Chavez Ravine rekindling their spirits I expect the Dodgers to make the final two games of this series moot.

God bless Time Warner Manhattan
so I call today to order HBO. The guy says “I see you have the sports pack, for 10 cents more, you can get a couple more HD sports channels, including Game HD.” I say why wasn’t I told of this before? He says no clue, I say fine, I’ll take it.
So I look up Game HD – and the game is on! And Vinny to boot.

Sweet
I called DirecTV the other day to add the sports pack so I could watch college football. The woman just gave it to me for free, and then said, since you’ve had NFL Sunday ticket for a few years, I’ll upgrade you to the HD package on that for free.
It was awesome if and completely unexpected.

Even with Holliday gone, they are set with Hawpe / Fowler / CGonz in the outfield with Seth Smith being a good fourth guy. Two centerfielders playing CF/LF is good idea in Coors.

he did this earlier in the year against the Rockies with Ubaldo pitching against him.

This is the problem with finesse pitchers like Wolf
In the bigger games the Umps have a smaller zone and its tough when you dont have a power fastball that you can just pound in the zone. This is where we miss Billingsly not being the ace like he should be.

Royal High School. We played them in the first round of the playoffs, and we never stood a chance in the slightest, haha. I just remember teammates telling me how we were going to win…after we fell into a playoff spot because we finished 5-5 with 3 other teams and won a coin flip to make it into the playoffs.

Royal and Simi are both pretty poor this year. Moorpark and Westlake are the top teams in the Marmonte this year.

Oh yeah, I live like 2 block down from Royal, like right before Fitzgerald. Somehow in my senior year I was 5 minutes away from school and I was late almost every day, hahah.
I haven’t heard anything about either school this year, but since I left Royal (5-5 then), they have somehow gotten even worse. I’m not quite sure how. The best year I can remember is when they had Danny Mosier as the running back back in 04 and they won Marmonte that year.

Also, I can’t remember Simi being any good in the last half decade. In my junior year (05), they started off 5-0 and then lost their last 5 games, it was quite hilarious.
