Tip 'o the Hat

Sad but satisfied, I bid adieu to the 2004 Dodgers. I enjoyed them tremendously.

Dodger Thoughts will continue in the offseason. I might take a few days off after the World Series, as I did last year, but otherwise I hope all of you who have found this place during the season will stick around. We'll start looking ahead almost immediately, but for now, it's with a great deal of fondness that I tip my hat to 2004.

  • Beltre comes alive.

  • Cora's 18-pitch home run.

  • Bittersweet farewells to Guillermo Mota, Dave Roberts and Paul Lo Duca.

  • Pulling for Nomo even though there was nothing left.

  • Weaver outpitching Kevin Brown.

  • A find in Jayson Werth.

  • Robin Ventura, Jose Hernandez and Olmedo Saenz - the oldies but goodies.

  • Shawn Green's second-half comeback (Did you notice in the paper today he finally admitted his shoulder was still bothering him in the first half?)

  • Izturis keys a galloping gourmet defense.

  • Lima Time is no joke.

  • Tim Wallach makes believers.

  • Yhency is fency.

  • Jason Grabowski provides some key help amid first-half injuries.

  • C'mon, Milton, light my fire ...

  • Odalis' big win in San Francisco.

  • Steve "finally, a deadline acquisition that works" Finley.

  • Nancy Bea, we cherish each moment they give you.

  • Paul DePodesta, we're keepin' the faith.

  • Jim Tracy, you're always learning. You might just make it after all.

  • Ross Porter, you're coming back. I'm overruling whoever says you're not. No way you're going like this.

  • Ishii, I'm so used to your act right now, it doesn't even faze me.

  • Brian Jordan, you - whoops, wrong year.

  • Wilson Alvarez, tough going today, but we still like ya.

  • Did you think I would forget Eric Gagne? You're all right, kid. Come back real soon.

    Congratulations to the Cardinals. That's a fine team.
