WE GOT ORTIZ’ED

by Tripon on Apr 14, 2010 11:42 PM PDT reply actions  

Torre’s an idiot.

by kinbote on Apr 14, 2010 11:42 PM PDT reply actions  

 Russ Ortiz vs Drew,Upton,Laroche?

by bisonenergy on Apr 14, 2010 11:42 PM PDT reply actions  

vs. the heart of the order?

by delias man on Apr 14, 2010 11:43 PM PDT reply actions  

Any idiot can win 4 World Series’

Look at that, he hit the f*cking bull! Guy gets a free steak!

by Josie Becker on Apr 14, 2010 11:44 PM PDT up reply actions  

I don’t think Torre’s Yankees teams skimpped on the bullpen like the Dodgers do.

by Tripon on Apr 14, 2010 11:46 PM PDT up reply actions  

Ortiz is gonna rock your socks off!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!

by silverwidow on Apr 14, 2010 11:43 PM PDT reply actions  

who comes in to relieve ortiz?

by papercrane on Apr 14, 2010 11:43 PM PDT reply actions  

Come on, pose!

Look at that, he hit the f*cking bull! Guy gets a free steak!

by Josie Becker on Apr 14, 2010 11:43 PM PDT reply actions  

Hey!

at least the heart of the order isn’t coming up……….OH Cmon Russ!

by keithc13 on Apr 14, 2010 11:43 PM PDT reply actions  

Broxton can’t throw more than 13 pitches because _______.

by kinbote on Apr 14, 2010 11:44 PM PDT reply actions  

…because the way things are going we’re going to need him tomorrow

by sarcastro9 on Apr 14, 2010 11:46 PM PDT up reply actions  

He pitched two games in a row, he won’t pitch tomorrow.

by Tripon on Apr 14, 2010 11:47 PM PDT up reply actions  

Torre wants to go home so he brings in Russ to give the game to the d-backs.

by The Ram on Apr 14, 2010 11:46 PM PDT up reply actions  

We are over 1700 comments tonight.

by Eric Stephen on Apr 14, 2010 11:46 PM PDT reply actions  

Hello Ned? Joe here, are you watching the game right now Ned?
ARE YOU WATCHING NED???

by 68elcamino427 on Apr 14, 2010 11:47 PM PDT reply actions  

Torre channeling 05 Tracy right tonight

by delias man on Apr 14, 2010 11:48 PM PDT reply actions  

well if laroche does it at least it helps my fantasy team

by coachbudd on Apr 14, 2010 11:48 PM PDT reply actions  

im hoping this game makes it to 5 1/2 hours just so i can brag to all my friends.

by papercrane on Apr 14, 2010 11:48 PM PDT reply actions  

It’s nothing to brag about. Unless Real and Chance are on your couch watching it with you.

by delias man on Apr 14, 2010 11:49 PM PDT up reply actions  

R U Fucking kidding? Ball 3?

by The Ram on Apr 14, 2010 11:49 PM PDT reply actions  

Hey remember when we thought everything was wonderful

and sunshine shone out of our collective asses?

Look at that, he hit the f*cking bull! Guy gets a free steak!

by Josie Becker on Apr 14, 2010 11:49 PM PDT reply actions  

Reynolds v Ortiz not a good matchup

by LA Taco on Apr 14, 2010 11:50 PM PDT reply actions  

reynolds could put this in parking lot

by coachbudd on Apr 14, 2010 11:50 PM PDT reply actions  

Is that Michael Moore in the seats behind home?

by aducker on Apr 14, 2010 11:50 PM PDT reply actions  

Guess not

But it looked a lot like it for a minute

by aducker on Apr 14, 2010 11:51 PM PDT up reply actions  

Did Ortiz just never had command?

by Tripon on Apr 14, 2010 11:51 PM PDT reply actions  

He's walked 100+ four times

Even in the years when he was good (topped 100 while winning 14, 15, 18 and 20 games), so… no, he never had command.

by EMDarrow on Apr 14, 2010 11:53 PM PDT up reply actions  

Fuck

both sides of luck.

Good luck – Reynolds pops up
Bad luck – bad route by Kemp

by Eric Stephen on Apr 14, 2010 11:51 PM PDT reply actions  

I would rather get Dp’ed than see how this inning is going to go…

by delias man on Apr 14, 2010 11:52 PM PDT reply actions  

fuck your gold glove

by coachbudd on Apr 14, 2010 11:52 PM PDT reply actions  

Time for a Benny the Jet special hit right at somebody’s glove

by Eric Stephen on Apr 14, 2010 11:52 PM PDT reply actions  

might as well have a milk carton

by coachbudd on Apr 14, 2010 11:52 PM PDT reply actions  

That curveball is so weak.

by kinbote on Apr 14, 2010 11:53 PM PDT reply actions  

I don't blame Kemp

Heading into hour 5 of this insane game. It’s got to be exhausting.

by aducker on Apr 14, 2010 11:53 PM PDT reply actions  

fuck this shit

I’m watching Buffy

Look at that, he hit the f*cking bull! Guy gets a free steak!

by Josie Becker on Apr 14, 2010 11:53 PM PDT reply actions  

so true

NOT

judgement calls that don’t go your way /= not wanting to win

by LA Taco on Apr 14, 2010 11:55 PM PDT up reply actions  

I would’ve kept in Broxton too.

by kinbote on Apr 14, 2010 11:56 PM PDT up reply actions  

you dont play for tomorrow

you play for today, and its just baffling how you pull Broxton after 13 pitches!!!1 13 pitches!!!

by SeanMillerSavior on Apr 14, 2010 11:58 PM PDT up reply actions  

You can blame Ortiz for that one.

That would have scored even if Kemp caught that last ball.

by Tripon on Apr 14, 2010 11:54 PM PDT reply actions  

He has nothing. No velocity, no movement, no curve, no command.

by kinbote on Apr 14, 2010 11:54 PM PDT up reply actions  

Road team on extra innings with 2 outs? I would assume the D’backs would be agressive.

by Tripon on Apr 14, 2010 11:55 PM PDT up reply actions  

Bison seems distracted on defense so far this season?

by 68elcamino427 on Apr 14, 2010 11:54 PM PDT reply actions  

at this point do you just let ortiz figure it out?

by papercrane on Apr 14, 2010 11:54 PM PDT reply actions  

He’s the final Dodger pitcher tonight. Weaver is unavailable.

by Eric Stephen on Apr 14, 2010 11:55 PM PDT up reply actions  

Why is this ump prolonging this game? so many bad calls at the plate, it’s not funny.

by The Ram on Apr 14, 2010 11:56 PM PDT reply actions  

When the overall well being of your flagship franchise hangs in the balance with a clown like Belisario, what else might need to be corrected?

by 68elcamino427 on Apr 14, 2010 11:59 PM PDT up reply actions  

 Plz release R.Oritz

by bisonenergy on Apr 14, 2010 11:56 PM PDT reply actions  

That Torre pulled Broxton should tell you he’ll be pitching tomorrow if needed.

by Eric Stephen on Apr 14, 2010 11:57 PM PDT reply actions  

No way Broxton throws 3 days in a row.

by Tripon on Apr 14, 2010 11:58 PM PDT up reply actions  

He wouldn’t do it for the Florida series.

by Tripon on Apr 14, 2010 11:59 PM PDT up reply actions  

Right

and he’s playing catch up because of it. Circumstances have changed

by Eric Stephen on Apr 15, 2010 12:01 AM PDT up reply actions  

the ENTIRE TEAM gets the blame

it is not only Torre’s fault. It is not only Loney’s fault. It’s not only Ortiz’s fault, or Billingsley, or Kemp. There is lots of blame to go around for everyone. You can find your favorite whipping boy and curse him out if it makes you feel better, but this ENTIRE team needs to get its shit together, and so do I, cause I’ve got a lot of work to do.

well, tomorrow’s another day…which starts in 3 minutes.

Good night, all….

by sarcastro9 on Apr 14, 2010 11:58 PM PDT reply actions  

So, assuming R. Ortiz is canned soon,

who is brought up to replace him if Kuo and Bellisario are not ready? JMac? Elbert?

by EephusBlue on Apr 14, 2010 11:58 PM PDT reply actions  

I thought the idea was they are concerned about super two status? or is that BS?

by EephusBlue on Apr 15, 2010 12:00 AM PDT up reply actions  

Towers?

Just throwin names out.

by Xeifrank on Apr 15, 2010 12:01 AM PDT up reply actions  

Nobody outside of Tripon and silverwidow gives a shit about Lindblom’s Super 2 status

by Eric Stephen on Apr 15, 2010 12:02 AM PDT up reply actions  

Had to leave for this half inning. what did Kemp do? misplay another fy ball?

by UCLADodger32 on Apr 14, 2010 11:59 PM PDT reply actions  

Yes

started back on a short popfly, then came in too late and it dropped on his diving attempt

by Eric Stephen on Apr 14, 2010 11:59 PM PDT up reply actions  

He needs to get his shit together on defense. Hes been nothing short of awful this year. It hurts to say it, but its true.

by UCLADodger32 on Apr 15, 2010 12:00 AM PDT up reply actions  

He had one in Florida that he dropped, had one tonight where he failed to take charge and had to lunge for the ball. He’s just been bad in center this year.

by UCLADodger32 on Apr 15, 2010 12:06 AM PDT up reply actions  

that's two plays

and one wasn’t a misplayed flyball, he just flat out made an error

by Chad Moriyama on Apr 15, 2010 12:09 AM PDT up reply actions  

Russ Ortiz sucks and can't be expected to to get the

heart of the Diamondback order out.

Chad is a different story, six runs won’t cut it for a guy we keep claiming is better then this. He better start being better then this because I’m tired of making excuses for him.

Patience is for those who die waiting for something to happen

by Phil Gurnee on Apr 14, 2010 11:59 PM PDT reply actions  

I completely agree with this.

by Alex41592 on Apr 15, 2010 12:00 AM PDT up reply actions  

Yup. Its put up or shut up time. You just cant collapse like this game after game.

by UCLADodger32 on Apr 15, 2010 12:01 AM PDT up reply actions  

If Rosales gets a grand slam, everybody should petition to get Russ Ortiz fired!!

by The Ram on Apr 15, 2010 12:00 AM PDT reply actions  

Alright blue

Last chance to make the last 5 hours worth it

by aducker on Apr 15, 2010 12:00 AM PDT reply actions  

Misery is almost over.

by The Ram on Apr 15, 2010 12:01 AM PDT reply actions  

Not if we score 2 to tie :)

by kinbote on Apr 15, 2010 12:01 AM PDT up reply actions  

Why is El Pollo Loco serving beef?

by kinbote on Apr 15, 2010 12:01 AM PDT reply actions  

In a side note, as promised I did take advantage of the food in the 5th inning.

I give it my blessing.

by Alex41592 on Apr 15, 2010 12:02 AM PDT reply actions  

Doesnt help to go nuts. Nothing we can do about it.

by UCLADodger32 on Apr 15, 2010 12:04 AM PDT up reply actions  

It’s Game 8 and you must pace yourself. There will be FAR more to go crazy about.

by Alex41592 on Apr 15, 2010 12:04 AM PDT up reply actions  

Like when Ned trades for a reliever.

by kinbote on Apr 15, 2010 12:06 AM PDT up reply actions  

Thanks a lot Loney

coulda used that back in the 6th

by rosinbag42 on Apr 15, 2010 12:04 AM PDT reply actions  

Go blue

Never too late…to crush some snake

by aducker on Apr 15, 2010 12:04 AM PDT reply actions  

NOW Loney gets a hit?!?

Dont get me wrong. I will take it. Just wish it came earlier.

by EephusBlue on Apr 15, 2010 12:04 AM PDT reply actions  

Well, I screwed myself over. I was going to do my homework after the ended. But its already midnight.

by Tripon on Apr 15, 2010 12:05 AM PDT reply actions  

i said the SAME exact thing. 5 hours later and i still have a paper on formalism i have to write for my class tomorrow.

by papercrane on Apr 15, 2010 12:06 AM PDT up reply actions  

That looked familiar.

by kinbote on Apr 15, 2010 12:05 AM PDT reply actions  

I blame this on Casey. He should have hit his double a foot higher.

by UCLADodger32 on Apr 15, 2010 12:05 AM PDT reply actions  

No chance of this game extending.

by Tripon on Apr 15, 2010 12:07 AM PDT reply actions  

Martin will tie this game up.

by silverwidow on Apr 15, 2010 12:07 AM PDT reply actions  

Everyone was dead tired.

by Tripon on Apr 15, 2010 12:08 AM PDT reply actions  

night yall. that stunk.

by UCLADodger32 on Apr 15, 2010 12:08 AM PDT reply actions  

Dodgers will never have a two game winning streak.

by Tripon on Apr 15, 2010 12:08 AM PDT reply actions  

Mercifully.

dodgers need to call up some fresh arms though

by rosinbag42 on Apr 15, 2010 12:08 AM PDT reply actions  

I wish they lost back in the 9th

instead of burning the bullpen to the ground

by EephusBlue on Apr 15, 2010 12:08 AM PDT reply actions  

We have a solid bullpen. I like it.

by silverwidow on Apr 15, 2010 12:08 AM PDT reply actions   1 recs

Hopefully tomorrow the Dodgers will get 7 or 8 solid from Kuroda

And the Dodgers can blast the D-backs pitchers back to the stone age.

by aducker on Apr 15, 2010 12:08 AM PDT reply actions  

oh well

jackie robinson night tomorrow at the stadium, Go Hiroki

by LA Taco on Apr 15, 2010 12:08 AM PDT reply actions  

time for the dodgers post game show?

by papercrane on Apr 15, 2010 12:08 AM PDT reply actions  

I was hoping for an extended at bat to reach five hours.

Also, Go Kings!

by Alex41592 on Apr 15, 2010 12:08 AM PDT reply actions  

Don’t leave, it’s time for DODGERS LIVE. Then DODGER TALK.

by silverwidow on Apr 15, 2010 12:09 AM PDT reply actions  

We’re probably looking at some roster moves tomorrow just to bring in some fresh bullpen arms.

by Tripon on Apr 15, 2010 12:09 AM PDT reply actions  

In a way, you have to expect it with growing popularity...

…but this place is becoming more and more like ESPN boards. :o

by Chad Moriyama on Apr 15, 2010 12:10 AM PDT reply actions  

Hey, I think I can swear better than a typical poster on the ESPN boards.

by Tripon on Apr 15, 2010 12:11 AM PDT up reply actions  

lol

omg what did i tell you about so-so sucking

one day later

OMG YAY SO GOOD ALL-STAR

ugh

by Chad Moriyama on Apr 15, 2010 12:12 AM PDT up reply actions  

LOL at this Joe Torre Quote

"We have to find out where we go and what’s going to give us the best chance to win a ballgame."

by SeanMillerSavior on Apr 15, 2010 12:11 AM PDT reply actions  

Goodnight, everybody!

the misery is over….for now. Lets hope it will be better game tomorrow and GO KINGS, GO!!!
