Dodgers Have Had Success From The Bottom Up

PrintLast night the Dodgers held the Rockies 7-9 hitters to a double and a walk in 12 plate appearances, and that has been par for the course this season for the Dodgers. They have really handled the bottom of the order all season.
| Dodger Pitchers Against Bottom Of Batting Order | ||||
| Split | PA | BA/OBP/SLG | OPS | sOPS+ |
| Batting 7th | 518 | .221/.294/.310 | .604 | 72 1st in NL |
| NL Totals | 8299 | .256/.318/.389 | .708 | |
|
|
||||
| Batting 8th | 505 | .214/.296/.309 | .605 | 76 2nd in NL |
| NL Totals | 8046 | .246/.323/.364 | .684 | |
|
|
||||
| Batting 9th | 487 | .163/.211/.219 | .429 | 57 2nd in NL |
| NL Totals | 7783 | .180/.230/.254 | .484 | |
Per Baseball-Reference.com, sOPS+ is defined as the OPS for a given split, relative to the league-wide numbers, where 100 is average. The Dodgers are at or near the best in the National League against each spot in the batting order, seven through nine. Combined, there has been no better team in the National League at getting the bottom of the order out, as the 7-9 spots are hitting .200/.269/.280 against the Dodgers. By contrast, Dodger 7-9 batters are hitting .258/.339/.338.
In case you were wondering, Dodgers' 1-6 batters are hitting .260/.326/.404 while Dodger pitchers are allowing opposing 1-6 batters to hit .266/.338/.412. In all, NL 1-6 batters are hitting .261/.329/.412.
Chad Billingsley hasn't pitched since last Saturday because of tightness in his right calf. He picked up his 10th victory of the season a week ago tonight against the Reds, marking the fourth straight double-digit win season for Billingsley, who hasn't faced the Rockies yet this season. He has given up three runs or less in each of his last six starts against Colorado, dating back to 2007.
Jhoulys Chacin has made three of his 15 career starts against the Dodgers. On May 8, he held the Dodgers scoreless in 7 1/3 innings, but in two starts since has given up a total of nine runs in 10 1/3 innings against them. In his last start, he struck out nine in 7 2/3 scoreless innings against Arizona on Sunday. Chacin, who was option to Triple A at the end of last month, has not pitched at Coors Field since July 11, a relief appearance against the Padres.
In six plate appearances against Chacin this season, Andre Ethier has three singles, a double, a walk, and a double play.
On this date in 1945, Branch Rickey told Jackie Robinson he was chosen to be the first African-American to play in MLB.
The third annual PITCHf/x summit was held today in San Francisco, and among the many developments being worked on is FIELDf/x, which could revolutionize the way defense is measured. If you are so inclined, for instance, to find out how one run is worth $350,000, you can download any of the presentations here.

Got a series of texts from one of my best friends
He is a teacher in San Jose, he said he has a student in his class with no arms, and said student writes with his toes.
OK, now the story is already amazing enough, but it gets better.
Apparently my friend was walking the aisles of his classroom, surveying his domain, and accidentally nearly stepped on the dude’s toes. The 18-year old kid got mad, and muttered something under his breath to my friend, using the word “toes.” Then, my friend, the teacher, asked the student these words:
“Did you say you wanted to go toe to toe?”
I submit that is one of the all-time greatest lines ever.
I can’t express enough how stupid it is to see a bunch of 12-year-olds wearing Bryce Harper eye black.
For fuck’s sake, come up with something original.

Bryce Harper gets credit for eye black?

Bye bye Manny
Torre makes his choice, per Gurnick:
Manny Ramirez is not in the Dodgers lineup for a third consecutive game.
Look at it this way: Dodgers probably want Pods back next year. Benching him will do them no favors.
This might mean they’re working on a trade, rather than just letting him go for the waiver fee.
They can waive him if he gets hurt, but a trade would collapse if he got hurt again.
People don't think it be like this, but it do.
if he gets hurt, they can just let him go to the White Sox and have them pay anyway.

Even if CHW
wants the Dodgers to bench Manny while a deal is being worked out, Ned should just tell them “no.” Fuck them. As soon as they propose a deal which is acceptable to the Dodgers, then they can dictate the games Manny plays in. Until then, he gets to help the Dodgers win baseball games.

Big mistake last night for me
I had a shot or two too many. Now Josie can continue being smug because she is always right, lol.
What a game last night, Kershaw put up a hell of an effort, too bad he had so many pitches through 6 innings, though. Glad to see the Dodgers take it to Ubaldo like that after the 7, it was so great :)

At a Dodger game recently, Delias and I were ranking the Dodgers last 3 coaches. I believe his order was Tracy (best) with Little worst. Logic being that Tracy did the most with the least amount of talent.

Fuck Buster Olney in the heart
http://twitter.com/Buster_ESPN/statuses/22383650931
Manny out of the Dodgers’ starting lineup for the third straight game. They’re gaining ground, but it’s not as if he’s a big part of that.
What is it about the national media that creams their pants to cover him intently, then constantly shits on him as if he is dog meat?
But he’s kind of right, isn’t he? I could look it up, but it’s easier to ask you: what’s our record with and without Manny this year? I’m sure it’s better w/Manny, but at this point it’s a small sample size, isn’t it?
by KellyStephen on Aug 28, 2010 2:19 PM PDT up reply actions
Well, but the team has been bad and Manny has been out. With Manny now available, it stands to reason that the Dodgers could be better than they’ve been all year.
The so called gaining ground is the small sample size. The large sample is the anemic hitting this season and Manny has been unavailable.
by Michael White on Aug 28, 2010 2:21 PM PDT up reply actions
32-22 when he starts
35-40 when he doesn’t
They still have a lot of ground to gain and he’s the best hitter on the team.
by Eric Stephen on Aug 28, 2010 2:21 PM PDT up reply actions
i agree with you; he should be playing. Missing over half the season is what lends some cred to what they’re saying.
by KellyStephen on Aug 28, 2010 2:24 PM PDT up reply actions
But the period he’s missed is the period when they’ve been bad. Seems to me that Olney has it completely backwards.
by Michael White on Aug 28, 2010 2:25 PM PDT up reply actions
To that point
Dodgers when Manny starts: 5.28 runs/game
Dodgers when Manny sits: 3.71 runs/game
The Dodgers have scored more runs (285) in 54 games started by Manny than in the other 75 games (278)

If we were to adjust for the ridiculous offense numbers from the first month then what would those numbers be? Offense killed but there we were at the bottom of the league just the same.
Taking out April (those games still count, by the way), the Dodgers have scored 4.74 runs per game in 43 Manny starts.

The Nationa Media is stupid and lazy
Perhaps because Torre was in NY for so long he has decided not to play Manny to appease the national media and help them advance their story line.
But it is amazing how the National Media is trying to make this like Manny leaving Boston again. They came on implying that Manny has been lazy and faking his injury and is just loolygaging on the DL. All to my mind untrue and the entire Dodger training staff over the last month when Manny was on the DL kept on saying he wanted to play but was not ready to field.
I am surprised most of the national baseball media is not at the Glen Beck rally today saying how great it is that Albert and Tony are supporting a great cause!
I present these tweets without comment
from Dylan Hernandez:
#Manny sitting because the #Dodgers are preparing to deal him? “No, no, no,” Joe Torre said. “This is just my dumb move.”
From Ken Gurnick:
Joe Torre said he has not been ordered not to play Manny Ramirez. He started Scott Podsednik because he likes the energy of this lineup.
Maybe it's just my state of mind
But is that an actual quote from Hernandez?
"If we hit that bull's eye, the rest of the dominoes will fall like a house of cards. Checkmate"
Torre is claiming that he likes Pods in the lineup more than Manny Ramirez.

Alright, Loney gets traded and then we kindly ask Dre to learn 1st base. Dre can ask Loney about the basics before he bounces.
Matt Kemp - Bringer of drought, puncher of babies faces(ugly ones killed on site), not Larry Bowa's GUY
Issues at 3rd base, catcher, left field, and SS (since Raffie can’t play a whole season anymore), and second base (not sure TheRiot is TheAnswer), and you want to get rid of an excellent defensive first baseman who’s having a decent (not spectacular) offensive season.
i’d say you are focusing on an area that is the least of our worries.

Heh
The trading Loney comment was a joke, I am most likely the biggest James Loney fan on this site.
But I would take Upton in a heartbeat, fills the LF hole and is definitely a “change of scenery” candidate.
I highly doubt 3rd base and 2nd(get ready for TheRIOT FOREVER) are upgraded. Russell Martin will be catching in 2011.
