Ted Lilly & Esmil Rogers, This Time Ready For Prime Time

The last time Ted Lilly and Esmil Rogers faced off, last Saturday in Denver, those of us listening to the game were on pins and needles as the game lasted 13 innings and wasn't televised. Since then, Lilly has had acupuncture needles stuck in him to treat his stiff neck, and the Dodgers will try to pin a loss on Rogers after letting him off the hook on Saturday.
Rogers allowed 11 hits and a walk in the first four innings on Saturday at Coors Field, and the Dodgers held a 4-3 lead. But they were unable to knock him from the game, and Rogers lasted six innings to help the bullpen in a game the Rockies would eventually win in 13 innings.
Lilly left Saturday's start with a stiff neck, but said he feels loose after undergoing acupuncture treatment earlier this week. Lilly in Denver walked three batters, the first time in 38 starts as a Dodger that he walked two or more batters. In four August starts, Lilly has a 2.45 ERA with seven walks and 23 strikeouts in 25 2/3 innings, but he's 0-3.

Im pretty old
but young enough to not know who Bob Eubanks ism, I guess
"I was a little scared he was into that Oakland thing. We swing here on 3-0." Grady Little on Andre
I thought he was that guy from Mr. Belvedere?

That would be the voice of the Brewers, Bob Uecker.

Let there be no confusion.
Bob Uecker is about 2,207 kinds of awesome.
Bob Eubanks is not entertaining and, by several accounts, a miserable excuse for a human being.

The only account I know of, Humma, is from a neighbor in Santa Ynez who said he is the nicest person in the world. Depends on sources, I guess.

It is really not a joke to be repeated, but it may be found online if one googles roger and me bob eubanks.
It doesn’t even really qualify as a joke, because all it does is offend.
Don’t say I didn’t warn you.

Well, there you go, it was okay because a Jewish guy told it to him.
Yep, I’m being facetious.

he is a …
gold card member of the Professional Rodeo Cowboys association
according to his Wikipedia profile.
Unless she was thinking of Christopher Hewitt, which would be weird. Not as weird as if she was thinking of Ilene Graff, but still…
"It's supposed to be hard. If it wasn't hard, everyone would do it. The hard... is what makes it great."
Weirdest of all would be if she was thinking of Clifton Webb.
Look it up. I had to!

You never really understand a person until you consider things from his point of view--until you climb into his skin and walk around in it.
A word to the wise
Do not trade Francoeur.
Nothing is ever easy.

this is phenomenal so far :)
"If we hit that bull's eye, the rest of the dominoes will fall like a house of cards. Checkmate"
Aw :(
“I think you should trade Frenchy while you can,” you suggest. “His numbers are due to regress and he’s not part of the future, Lorenzo Cain is.”
“I see your point,” replies Dayton. “I’ll make the call.”
The next morning you read Dayton has swapped Francoeur to the Dodgers for their top three prospects. “That Ned Coletti is priceless,” you laugh as you shake your head.

Another possible (backup) backstop

Mattingly said #Dodgers farmhand Russ Mitchell may be developed behind the plate to add to the other positions he plays
There's no need to fear, Underdog is here! / Broncos/Dodgers/Lakers fan in Niners/Raiders/Giants/Warriors country, and damned proud of it.
He was on the phone with Chicago when that decision was made.

More proof that Mattingly really wanted to be “forced” to use Mitchell at catcher when he was up.

Chad Tracy hitting for Round Rock
I remember being invited by LMU to a game against Pepperdine and coming away thinking only two things: I’d love to pitch at LMU, and Chad Tracy is a total tool.
Lilly HR Derby
Lilly has given up 15 HRs at home this season (12 on the road). I wonder what the record is for most HRs given up by a pitcher in a season at Dodger Stadium. I bet Lilly has to be on his way to breaking that record.
slow clap for AJ Burnett
