On pregame show
Ned said at first they offered $1.5 million to CWS for a specific prospect they wanted, and Chicago rejected the offer.
Then, the Dodgers offered $1 million to CWS for a different prospect “further down the line” per Ned, and that was rejected too.

Dear True Blue LA and Dodgers,
since the Padres suck, we would really, really appreciate it if you won tonight, tomorrow, and the day after that.
Thanks!

I added up the part of the payroll worksheet of the players that no longer play for us or were DFA’d etc…
We have half of the Pirates payroll there. Around $17.5M. Is this the norm in baseball? Or are we just cool like that?
It is one of the larger numbers among MLB teams. I need to update it later tonight now that Manny is gone.

It seemed high
I was wondering last night how much more we’d need to compete with Pittsburgh.
Not as much as you’d think.
Ugh
Six more weeks
So, by that math, we should take the division by 2 games!

He's having the best game out there tonight
Either him or Jamey Carroll. Barajas is the answer to our power prayers it seems :)

I hope he is our backup catcher next year
Have you ever tried just turning off the TV, sitting down with your children, and hitting them?
Vin Scully is undoubtedly great.
But, in these moments he’s the best at getting the most out of the moment. Love this man.

Adam Morrison has more rings than Lebron, Bosh, and Wade combined?
I hate that piece of shit so god damn bad
Fuck you too, ESPN, assholes.

No he’s not. He just came to a Dodger blog and said “yes” when the no-hitter was broken up.

That was probably a bit uncalled for
Apologize on his behalf.
My value over a replacement poster is approximately 10.5 runs.

On the day we lose Manny and start the McCourt divorce trial...
…a no-hitter would’ve been too much to hope for.
Oh well.
And here comes fucking Ruiz, wow this is just perfect. I hope someone from Dodgers hit Victorino tomorrow :)
Jansen 98 MPH fastball in the ribs would be poifect :)
"If we hit that bull's eye, the rest of the dominoes will fall like a house of cards. Checkmate"
i heard it too.
I never thought I’d hear that outside of the Bay Area. Bay area fans chant Beat L.A. at Giants and Sharks games, even if they aren’t playing LA
Sit the fuck down, fatty
"If we hit that bull's eye, the rest of the dominoes will fall like a house of cards. Checkmate"
Carlos Ruiz
most hated man in LA?

Not even the most hated man on his paper.

I'm giving Kuroda a standing O in my house
Nice game Hiroki, you rocked the shit out of these P.O.S.es.
"If we hit that bull's eye, the rest of the dominoes will fall like a house of cards. Checkmate"
That was one hell of a pitch to get Ruiz. I loved it.
Standing O for Hiro indeed.

Me neither.
On record as saying that regardless of what happens.

Hiroki Kuroda
is coming out? UGHHHHH
I know its to be safe, but I really really really really wanted to see the man finish the game…

Looks like I picked the wrong day to forget to put Kuroda in my fantasy rotation
He had been on the bench since his last start while I added Street for saves. Dammit

It happened so quickly, I didn’t even get to post my, “I don’t like this move” comment. I will GLADLY be wrong in that situation!

another reason I hate all things philadelphia
I remember reading an article (in the LA Times I think) about this guy living in LA who was originally from Philly who decided to make shirts with “I’m not angry, I’m from Philly”
i'm here to clean your pool but i don't have a pool *bowchica bowow*
Well whatever happens in the SF-Colo game
if Dodgers win they gain on 2 of three teams.

So I'm sitting this one out
on purpose like after my foul mood showed itself earlier. But I went to get some water, and my dad had the game on, and DS was giving Kuroda a standing O, and y’know what he does, flips to Two and a Half Men.
Yeah, I hate great baseball moments too dad. *click, boom

and another back away take on a 3-1 fastball. wtf is he doing

Kemp earned himself that strikeout. Just an awful approach that makes things 10 times harder on himself.
Just pulling this out of my ass (I know, what a shock)
but what about a vision test. Could he need glasses? I know they do a complete physical in spring training, but are there any follow ups during the year?
by Greg Stephen on Aug 30, 2010 9:33 PM PDT up reply actions
I've been wondering that too. Worried about his vision
On the other hand I’ve had same question or worry about Casey Blake, too. Maybe a new team optometrist.

Jesus Christ. Let’s all armchair his problems since we were all such great hitters in our Major League careers.

Hey, I've never struck out in the majors
by Greg Stephen on Aug 30, 2010 9:38 PM PDT up reply actions
You know, he was bailing out on the first pitch. That means his ass moved out of the way. Maybe it’s because he is constipated. That would also explain him being slower; he’s obviously been constipated all year. Optometrist? Hell no. We just need a team proctologist.
Holy shit indeed.

Shane Victorino looks like Megamind from that new Will Ferrell Cartoon
I'm nobody's fool, least of all yours
Only he is
Nowhere as cool as the voice talent that plays him.
may not be a no-hitter
but a 1-hitter is pretty impressive.

As long as the Phillies are fighting the Braves for a playoff spot I’ll be rooting 100 percent for the Braves to win!

I don't like the Braves
But when we’re talking about a team that is in the same division as the Phillies? The enemy of my enemy is my friend. Screw the Phillies!

He came in on a broken bat fly ball…misjudged it…went over his head and to the wall.
Turns into a triple…giants then throw the ball into the dugout trying to get Cargo at 3rd…Cargo awarded home.
