Dodgers Wanted To Wait For True Blue LA Night

This is starting to get a little comical. Nine times the Dodgers had a chance to win the National League West, with either a win or a Rockies loss. Nine times they have been denied. Tonight becomes divisional match point number 10, and it just happens to be True Blue LA night at Dodger Stadium!
The Dodgers' playoff situation is pretty simple:
- Win one of the next two games, and they are the top seed in the NL playoffs, with home field advantage during the first two rounds.
- Lose both games, and the Dodgers are the number four seed, likely traveling to Philadelphia to start the NLDS
The Cardinals can no longer get the top seed. They can only max out at 93 wins, and the winner of the NL West will have at least 94 wins. Any win by the Phillies or loss by the Cardinals locks the Cardinals in as the number three seed, meaning they will play the winner of the NL West in the NLDS.
If the Phillies win one of their two remaining games, they are guaranteed at least the number two seed, by virtue of having the tiebreaker over the Cardinals, and would play the wild card winner in the NLDS.
If the Rockies win both games, they will win the West, and are guaranteed at least the number two seed. If the Rockies end up tying Philadelphia at 94 wins (Phillies would also have to win their final two), the Phillies would get the top seed by virture of winning the head-to-head tiebreaker with the Rockies. If the Rockies lose a game, they are the wild card, and the number four seed.
As bad as the Dodgers are playing, they still just need one win. One win will fix everything. it really is that simple.
| Team | W-L | GB |
| Dodgers | 93-67 | --- |
| Phillies | 92-68 | 1 |
| Rockies | 92-68 | 1 |
| Cardinals | 91-69 | 2 |
The Dodgers' fate rests in the hands of young Clayton Kershaw. It seems like a tall task for a 21-year old who hasn't pitched past four innings in a game for over four weeks, but if anyone is up to it, it's Kershaw. Kershaw will be the game two starter in the NLDS, so what better way to prepare for the playoffs than winning the division clincher?
The Rockies counter with Jorge de la Rosa, an under-the-radar 16-game winner this season. It's easy to discount his 4.45 ERA or his 0-5 record and 7.12 ERA against the Dodgers in his career, but like Ubaldo Jimenez, it's important for the Dodgers to not overlook de la Rosa. On the road, de la Rosa is 6-3 with a 3.45 ERA and a 3.93 FIP. Actually, his overall FIP is just 3.98, so he has enjoyed a nice season.
More importantly, tonight is True Blue LA night at the stadium! It is our second trip this season. We showed up 20 strong in San Diego on July 3 for the return of Manny Ramirez (more pictures here), and tonight we increase our throng from one Hall of Famer (Sutton) to another (Koufax), as 32 seats in the reserved level, section 44, rows K through N, will be filled by True Blue LA faithful.
We will plan to meet at the seats before the game. We have a few fun things in store, including some prizes to give away. A fun time shall be had by all, especially if the Dodgers are able to clinch the division.
I have seen the Dodgers clinch twice in person:
- September 30, 1995: a win in San Diego on the penultimate day of the season behind Hideo Nomo gave the Dodgers the NL West crown
- September 30, 2006: a win in San Francisco, also on the next-to-last day of the year, gave the Dodgers a playoff spot (the division was still in play, but they ended up as the wild card) behind Greg Maddux
I lived in San Diego for about 14 years up until I moved earlier this season, but if I didn't move maybe I could have been there in person for another road September 30th clinch on Wednesday. That didn't happen, so I'll have to settle for clinching the division at home in the company of friends and family.
The Dodgers before the game will honor Juan Pierre for winning the organization's Roy Campanella Award for being the Dodger who "best exemplifies the spirit and leadership of the late Hall of Fame catcher." In addition, the Dodgers will honor their minor league player of the year (Dee Gordon), and pitcher of the year (Scott Elbert). To help mimic a game situation for Elbert, the Dodgers can have a person stand in the left-handed batter's box as Elbert receives the award, then have Elbert come off the mound after an all too brief ceremony.
Kathy Ireland will throw out a ceremonial first pitch, an interesting choice on a night featuring Star Wars fans and blogger fans. Remember folks: no Lightsabers will be allowed into Dodger Stadium.

were going to win today....
kershaw on the mound
he MUST limit his pitch count and avoid walks
we need to see him pitching the way he was in July
the dodger offense has torched De La Rosa in the past
however if they struggle again today they need to be more patient in their at bats
and be willing to take walks if they get a chance…thats how we got to lincecum
even though we couldnt get hits off him the first couple of times, we drew walks and got his pitch count high and thats eventually what burned him when we finally got those critical hits….
Because when I think of Boris Diaw, I think of Beethoven and the age of Romanticism....

Asking that of Kershaw these days is akin to...
…asking the sun to rise in the west.
But yeah, if you guys stay patient with de la Rosa, it could work both ways.
Tonight is going to be a battle of the bullpens, I suspect.

Unfortunately the rest of the Colorado lineup
(as opposed to San Diego’s) is not terrible. I’d probably just pitch to him and hope for the best, unless there is 1st base open with 1 out or something….

true
and, just checking the #s – CK has been generally horrible against much of the lineup. 5 different players have OPs>1 with at least 7 ABs

Kershaw got rocked once (twice?) in Coors, which will tend to jack up numbers a lot in a small sample size.

I'm talking more about high pitch counts and inability to go deep
Kershaw’s an effin’ stud, but if he doesn’t keep his pitch count reasonably low, your already-shot bullpen is going to get us into Sunday with a chance to win the division, that’s all I’m saying.
If Kershaw’s economical tonight, you can probably pop some corks.

Well, I admit I'm talking a bit out of my ass here, but....
….I suspect a lot of those effects are cumulative, at least for relievers, because it doesn’t even account for warming up multiple times in a game on consecutive days, etc.
And that overworked arms aren’t really “right” until after a couple months off.
Anyway, we’ll see. Nevertheless, I think Kershaw needs to get at least into the 7th for you guys tonight, otherwise it won’t look good for celebrations tonight.

I appreciate your reasonable response, however
About the last month. All I see are random Dodgers box scores and anectodal stuff over the last month, so it certainly appeared to me that Torre was still overusing Bellisario/Troncoso.
It’s possible to correct someone without being a douchebag about it.

Namecalling
Awesome. Call me old-fashioned, but I usually find it’s the burden of the person who is maying the claim (the bullpen is shot) to actually do the research and not just throw it out there and leave it to others to correct you.
Besides, I’m always snippy, not just when the Dodgers are losing.
And I appreciate that I can go a little overboard sometimes (matthew has made that point to me a few times).) but I fail to see how calling someone a douchebag is even remotely appropriate.

And frankly, I’m more than happy to have a hole in my knowledge set right, if it’s there. But those who do it unnecessarily rudely or arrogantly….well, the greater impression left is “that guy’s an asshole” above and beyond “that guy’s pretty smart and knows his stuff”.

You spit out total shit, “your already-shot bullpen” and are promptly called out for it. You respond by admitting that you don’t know what you are talking about, and then proceed discussing the topic you just confessed didn’t know anything about.
And when you are mocked for this, you call me a troll.

The Dodgers are actually pretty good, in general, about limiting how often a pen guy gets up. I have seen more bullpen activity this month, which I attribute to expanded rosters, e.g., Elbert gets up to be a middle inning LOOGY just in case, but doesn’t come in.

would agree that joe and rick have done a good job with the pen, and that our pen is absolutely playoff-caliber, even if our starters aren’t beyond the first two ATM.

I get the feeling that the Game Thread is gonna be pretty dead today with a ton of TBLA members at the game.
Someone needs to step up today. Be it Ethier, Manny, Kemp, or one of the role players… someone has to cash in on an opportunity and jump-start this offense. Let’s go LA!

i think
that with a win tonight…we not only can clinch the division but home field as well
since we have a 1 game lead over the phillies
cause even if we lose tomorrow and the phillies win, we tie them
but we then automatically win the tiebreaker cause we had a better record against them…

Jeff Kent was right about this team the young guys don't have the heart
Russell martin.Ethier-Loney-kershaw-Billingsley-they don’t have the commitment to win yet.
They layed down and quit when it got hard.When they were ahead they got lazy and relaxed and they mentally coasted.They thought Colorado would implode.This team will get knocked out in the first round by a better staff.They aren’t aggresssive at the plate they take way to many pitches.Colletti needs to get a catcher-First Baseman- and Right fielder who have the balls to step up when it counts.Martin=Ethier-Loney need to go to San Diego and any other underachieving team.Kershaw and billingsley don’t have what it takes to win right now.Kent might have been a jerk but his tough as nails approach is what got him the hall of fame stats he has.He was right about this team.
