I hate traffic :( everyone wants a Dre bobblehead
by Dodgermanramon on May 18, 2010 7:09 PM PDT via mobile reply actions
That traffic was absolute shit. I got lost off the 5 going North at 7th street. You can’t get back on the 5 from 7th street going north, so i drove around for 30 minutes on a wild goose chase following signs that pointed me in wrong directions…I was 10 miles away at 5:20 from Dodger Stadium…I didn’t get in the frigging park until 7:50.

I left Mission Hills at 5:15 and was in DS, in my seat with Dodger Dog and beer in hand by 6:05
Of course that is coming in from an entirely different direction…..
The commenter formerly known as El Lay Dave.
on the one year anniversary of the Mets literally throwing the game away against the Dodgers
they do the same thing with the Atlanta Braves. Over at Amazin’ Avenue, David Wright had what they say “may have been the worst game of his career”. Well, at least it only may have been the worst!
he went 0 for 4 with three K's
including leaving a runner on 3rd w/1 out in the 9th. In the bottom of the inning, there was 1st & 2nd no one out, and it looks like Cabrera got aboard on an infield single, which Wright subsequently threw away, allowing the winning run to score.
(recap isn’t up yet)
np
We were discussing the other night who we’d accept in a (hopefully) hypothetical trade involving Matt Kemp. One of the guys whose name came up was David Wright. I said he wasn’t the same player since getting hit in the head, sadly. At this rate, I might not trade Loney for him! Nothing against Loney, of course- just saying Wright’s days as a member of the elite may be over. A .262 BA & a pace of 220 K’s for a lifetime .307 hitter (INCLUDING the down numbers). That sounds like it may be a lot more than a garden-variety slump.
Wouldn't
but we were just spitballing on what it would take.
Patience is for those who die waiting for something to happen
it was just a hypothetical discussion brought on
a) by Tony Jackson’s bizarre take down of Kemp and, b) by the Dodgers performance lately, as we were probably just running out of things to complain about :)
The K rate is crazy high
compared to his norm with little power to show for all those swing and misses
Patience is for those who die waiting for something to happen
fair enough, but do you think you will be getting good value for him? Also, do you think he has the ability to be a better over all hitter that can cut down the strikes?
I'm talking about Wright not Kemp
Wright is on a pace to strike out over 200 times
Patience is for those who die waiting for something to happen
Sokia rarely does that
was it middle relief?

Too bad Ethier isn’t healthy for his bobblehead night.

Dodgers.com has Ortiz as tomorrow’s starter. So there is no reason for me to think that he will not be the pitcher tomorrow.
Phil said earlier that he might not start next week if the rotation was strong this week.

Yup
next week because we have an off day on Monday so if Joe wants to keep the regulars on five days he can skip Ortiz spot.
Patience is for those who die waiting for something to happen
You’re thinking of his next time up. Monday is a day off, so he may be skipped on Tuesday, depending on whether the rest of the rotation needs an extra day or not. According to Torre today. See the post above.

But even his time in Colorado, he couldn’t do much of anything.
Win Streak
I was talking with my friend the other day. I wanted to know what your thoughts were on what is the difference between the Dodgers during this win streak compared to when they were below 500 and sucking terribly.
I would agree, do you think the bullpen or the starters have made the most impact? I say starters going longer my friend says bullpen.
Starters going longer
so we are using the better relievers
Patience is for those who die waiting for something to happen
Good I am on the same page as all of you, it all starts with this teams starters. I think if they just get average starting pitching with their offensive potential the possibilities for this season are very high.

Doesnt help that every throw against him is freaking perfect. He hasnt had any breaks of the catcher making a bad throw or dropping the ball, ala Loneys steal (he would have been out by 2 yards with a clean catch by quintero).

yeah he just seems to be missing something this year. Not like he is lazy, almost like he just thinks it is too easy or something.
and he also stole that base. He beat the throw and was never tagged. Attaboy, ump.

my Sharks are now down 3-0. I’m just glad the Lakers aren’t also playing (and losing) or tonight might give me a heart attack.

I feel your pain. MLB TV has been bullshit yesterday and today. When it’s good it’s good. When it’s bad it’s bad. But hey think of it this way, there are just so many Dodger fans in San Francisco we are using too much bandwidth.
Hehe, that must be it!
Works better than thinking that MLBTV just sucks. ;-)
Or maybe Giants fans are sabotaging it realizing they’re about to fall into 3rd place.
There's no need to fear, Underdog is here! / Broncos/Dodgers/Lakers fan in Niners/Raiders/Giants/Warriors country, and damned proud of it.
Dude I called it on Mother’s day that the Dodgers will be in second place in two weeks. They all laughed at me. Giants fans don’t know baseball plain and simple. The ones that do keep their mouth shut.
Giants fans tend to be overly cocky but also mixed with being overly apocalyptic
and dramatic. (Of course you could say that about a lot of typical fans in general.) I know some who are knowledgable enough. But most of the ones I have met tend to be ignorant about other team’s players. I remember one diehard G fan who was a coworker who didn’t know who Russell Martin was in Russ’s 2nd full season. (Now Giants fans know him and hate him.) Anyway, after all the shit I’ve taken here I will shed no tears for them.
There's no need to fear, Underdog is here! / Broncos/Dodgers/Lakers fan in Niners/Raiders/Giants/Warriors country, and damned proud of it.
I like that they keep talking about their farm system. You and I know all too well the Giants are just good enough to go 500 for the year and they will never take the chance and throw away a season or two to put in these young players to see if they can play. They have nothing but pitchers. The park they play in is too big, they are too slow as a team and have no power. They suck and will forever suck.
yeah Berkman hits a DP. then Lee hits a 350 ft foul ball and strikes out on the next pitch

OK, Kobe best player in the game I give that up without any hesitation. The Lakers on offense again the Celtics, they will shift defenders to either kobe or Pau before they get the ball, a function of Ron Ron not being able to hit an open shot. Also, the Celts can go man to man against the Lakers. They have enough size to give them problems and negate the size the Lakers have.

Harold is right
The Dodgers don’t have an answer for the pick and roll that Eckstein/Gonzalez and Torres/Sandoval run.

This Is Way Better than Sucking
I’m so pleased with the Dodgers right now, I’ll even give Padilla a free pass if he shoots himself again this week.
there must be a glitch on the ESPN standings board
it shows the pirates at a -102 run differential. If that’s not actually the case, their 17-22 record is actually quite impressive!
OT
The Mono County LL Farm Division Dodgers beat the Twins 16-1 this evening. Big games from the middle of the lineup. and a sweet unassisted double play at first. it is always great fun to watch an 8 year old make the play.
Well, I'm starting to dose off a little
But I’ll go to bed and this game will still be on when I get up in the morning I hope
