Up to the minute
Jose Reyes (2-4 with 2 homers) .3352
Ryan Braun (1-2 with a single) .3345
Matthew Ryan Kemp (TBD) .3238
Kemp can still win the batting title. All he needs from this point forward…
Kemp 8 for 9
Reyes 0 for 5
Braun 0 for 4
they never brought up Bauer
did they?

What did Bartman do?
"I was a little scared he was into that Oakland thing. We swing here on 3-0." Grady Little on Andre
oh i get it. a movie
moral of the story: don’t reach for the ball.
"I was a little scared he was into that Oakland thing. We swing here on 3-0." Grady Little on Andre
especially not when it’s clearly out of play and you have every right/natural reaction to reach for the ball
Steve Bartman should have let the ball hit him in the face so really it’s his fault that

95% of ignorant fans. If the parents didn’t teach you that first row in your home park comes with responsibility they didn’t raise you right. You stand your ground against the opposing team and make room for the homies. It is quite simple even for those not educated in private schools can figure it out. The ball may or may not have been playable but Alou deserved every chance to find out.
That said I was rooting really hard for Prior to blow up. It was one of the sweetest games not involving the Dodgers I’ve watched.
Patience is for those who die waiting for something to happen
The pic above seems to show one other guy and Bartman reaching, and all the others pulling back.

I think Kemp may have focused too much on his personal stats this last week. I could be wrong, but it seems he maybe paid too much attention to the MVP stuff. Sure has hammered a few pitches, but that last AB didn’t look so good.

2009 Inland Empire is when he first started to pitch.
Not sure who the pitching coach was then.
Carlos Subero was manager.
Hough
Coaching career
1996-1998: Pitching Coach for the San Bernardino Stampede
1998-1999: Pitching Coach for the Los Angeles Dodgers
2001-2002: Pitching Coach for the New York Mets
2006: Pitching Coach for the Fullerton Flyers
2007-2010: Pitching Coach for the Inland Empire 66ers
This is exciting
Citing baseball’s tampering rules, Colletti wouldn’t talk about any specific potential free agents, but said the Dodgers would be open to signing the right player to a nine-figure deal.
"I think if there’s a player like that out there, we’ll inquire on it," Colletti said.
NINE FIGURES. That’s hard to comprehend.
I think he was counting two decimal places
so it would be more like $1,000,000.01
Wait till next year...

or it won’t be his problem

Mattingly in the last week or so has pulled Jansen after one inning despite throwing 7 and 11 pitches. He wasn’t going another one regardless.
In those games you mentioned, Jansen only recorded 6 outs. All strikeouts

Anyone seeing the KJ- Broxton parallels
overpowering relief pitcher thrives in 8th inning role. Let’s NOT make him the closer. Good call by DX2
"I was a little scared he was into that Oakland thing. We swing here on 3-0." Grady Little on Andre
Broxton was a great closer, until he broke down
I do think Kenley might be better served in a setup role, as he can be brought in pressure situations.

I didn't mean Brox was horrible
but it seems its going to end horribly for him

I wanted him to close initially
but this is the ideal spot for him, to either serve as a setup man or someone who takes care of inherited runners

trivia Answer: August 26th
Question: When is the last time Kenley Jansen pitched and didn’t strike someone out.
Looking at Scott Van Slyke’s numbers…he might be a player.
If the Dodgers could just take their good bats, and teach them the tougher positions (3rd base)…they could create some legit hitting prospects.

regarding the most WPA in a single play. This was one such scenario, and although we weren’t sure if an all-star closer or a scrub closer made a difference, but we presumed one of the highest would occur in such a scenario. I can’t wait to see the WPA here.
This has to be the most sudden re-write of a game recap in TBLA history.
I cant remember blowing a 5run lead AFTER 2 were out.
The most I can remember was a 4-run lead with two out and nobody on in Atlanta
I think it was in 1980, but not sure. Freddie Hubbard hit a three-run homer off Stanhouse to win it. That rally also started on a derp play. Ron Cey let a ball go through his legs for an error with two out and nobody on base.

whatever
the fact that we got a living breathing human being for Theriot makes the trade worth it x 10000
and he hasn’t been THAT bad at all

@maddzgoesrawr @arenafitness
yeah
but instead, they got a fairly decent relief pitcher

I don't know why
This was fucking hilarious.
daron sutton must have psychic powers
Because in the top of the 10th, after the Dodgers were up I think 4-1…he said something like “If you guys are watching on replay…something amazing happens in the bottom of the 10th”…He actually said this it was crazy.
We lost?????? WTF I turned the game off and thought it was over

Loney fucked up for being such a boss on the defense
by NotJoeTorre on Sep 27, 2011 10:37 PM PDT up reply actions
it might open the closer job up for Jansen..
But..the last time Jansen tried to save a game…he gave it up vs the Astros after 2 were out. Althought not in as dramatic fashion.
Sad that Guerra gets the loss
That was all thanks to the Hawk’s assumption that Loney wouldn’t make that play.

But not when there are better options available
Hawk doesn’t strike out enough guys when compared with Lindblom, Tolleson, Guerra, and Jansen. We’re stuck with Guerrier. And we’ll need Elbert from the left side, and I’d rather have St. Clair than Hawk on the big club.

The anger subsided when I realized
We’ve already clinched a winning record… Thanks rainout in WSH…

I just realized who hit the grand slam
Ryan “I will kill all of your dreams” Roberts – same guy who dinged Kuroda last year. Fucker.

I'M SORRY BUT WTF
I had to work tonight. I checked the score as I was leaving. Dodgers score 5 in the 10th, up 6-1. Well, I’m not gonna listen to the end of that game. Come here to check in and EXCUSE ME BUT WTF HAPPENED?
magnae clunes mihi placent, nec possum de hac re mentiri.
quis enim, consortes mei, non fateatur
Also, Hawk got the first two outs
Next guy hit a slow chopper behind first base, Hawk had a brain cramp and didn’t cover first. The runner beat him to the bag when he realized that Loney actually fielded the ball. Then a single, walk, an error by Miles on a pretty hard hit ball right to him…eventually Guerra came in, gave up a bases-loaded walk, then a granny to Roberts.
by The Dude Abides on Sep 27, 2011 10:51 PM PDT up reply actions
You're right, he didn't pitch poorly for the most part
Montero hit the ball hard, McDonald hit the ball fairly hard. I forgot what Young did. The thing is, Hawk needed a K and didn’t get one. He constantly gets two strikes on guys but doesn’t really have an out pitch.
by The Dude Abides on Sep 27, 2011 10:56 PM PDT up reply actions
Yeah I stopped listening when sellers came in to pinch hit. Turned it back on in time to hear the grand slam. The funny thing is, I called it. I said to myself, oh man he walked a batter. Shit, now he’s going to make a bad pitch, hr, game over. I was hoping that I was wrong :(

since i seem to be getting angry responses
To my anti hawksworth ranting, I am curious: how would you improve the 2012 bullpen?
by lnickerson88 on Sep 27, 2011 10:48 PM PDT via mobile reply actions
I just got here, so I have no idea what happened in this particular game. But:
The bullpen might be in the Dodgers’ top ten problems, but it might not be. One cannot plan for a good bullpen. Shit is gonna happen, and good pitchers will suddenly be bad, and bad pitchers will suddenly be good.

if by “angry” you mean “not agreeing with you”, then yes.
I would improve the bullpen by giving Kuo confidence, Belisario a visa, and Lance Cormier a kick in the nuts.

/nothatseriousbutkindof
Don’t care about Cormier. Sad about Kuo, kind of WTF about Belisario. I personally think that the bullpen is what it is: a crapshoot of NRI dudes who kind of work, don’t work, and do work. The end.

@maddzgoesrawr @arenafitness
True or false: if a pitcher was any good, he’d be a starter.

I want to say true, kind of.
You can be really good but only have two pitches. Then you’re kind of bullpen4lyfe at that point.

@maddzgoesrawr @arenafitness
My feeling is that for most of humanity, it is sorta-kinda true.
For most of humanity, if you are not good, you will go to the bullpen, where you will be good and not good, alternately, and seemingly at random, for years, until you are not good for too many years and then you will be out of a job.
And then there are the Mariano Riveras and Trevor Hoffmans of the world. I don’t know if Trevor Hoffman deserves the Hall of Fame simply because he didn’t suck for many, many, many, many years, but he might, and after a long, shitty day, I’d like to feel generous.

Addition by Subtraction
Guerra
Jansen
Elbert
Lindblom
Tolleson
St.CLair
Guerrier
at some point I would like to see something like this. Maybe just a different left hander than St.Clair is all
