From Ken Gurnick at MLB.com:
Reliever Joe Beimel suffered a bloody gash to his pitching hand in a freak hotel accident Tuesday morning, leaving him in stitches and the Dodgers bullpen roster spots in limbo for Wednesday's opener of the National League Division Series with the Mets.
Beimel said he cut his left hand on broken glass in his hotel room after waking up to get a drink of water.
"I got up, went to the faucet in the bathroom, got the drink, was going to set down the glass, and it slipped out of my hand and I tried to catch it and wound up just spiking it into the sink," said Beimel.
"I thought it was just a cut, but when I looked at it, it was really deep. I wish I had a better story, like I was trying to save a baby or something. This is just crazy how it happened."
Who knew we'd fret over Joe Beimel in October?

"I'm not at all surprised."
I think that just about sums it up.
ANYTHING to keep Hendrickson off the mound...can't we bring back Jesse Orosco?
"I didn't ask," Beimel said. "I didn't look and didn't want to know."
Denial!
Actually, having once broken a ring finger and having the painkillers injected between it and the pinkie, I can understand his lack of interest.

Maybe Joe Beimel can start a blog, too - if he can type with his right hand. Should have some free time...

And the Inside the Dodgers blog posted the lineups that Little released to the media:

No surprises.
Might knock a couple quid off the asking price :)

Any word on Yhency? I have my Ghame over shirt on today. Werth? Izturis, oh, wait... :-)
This is no laughing matter...
