I wanted to break my monitor (I was at work).

I think Koufax is more deserving of an LA statue than Jackie.
There already is a statue of Jackie Robinson at Jackie Robinson Stadium at UCLA.

19 Yeah, that's a great trend. Hope it continues.

Ledee 1B
Loney CF

Somehow, I doubt it.

If ledee would have not been such a lame duck it would still be 3 nothing.

It didn't hurt the Mets, who own the Nationals but intentionally walking anyone -- even Carlos Delgado -- to get to David Wright strikes me as curious. (There were already two outs when it happened so no DP issue.)

Cheney was loudly and sustainedly booed. He was quick on and off the field. I missed all this as I was on stern orders to get a hotdog and the lines were unholy -- 25 minutes in line, even before the game started.

I don't know what it says about the VP's status in the administration right now, but for some reason they decided not to go with the metal detectors . . .

Zzzzzzz.

Wow, Seo gets a hit. Snell is almost as impressive as Zach was yesterday.

1, 1, 2, 3, 5, 8, 13, 21, 34, 55, 89, 144, 233

Meanwhile, Seo isn't making the Pirates go away as he should.

That, and old episodes of "Growing Pains."

"Tell me where the nerve gas is now or else you are going to have to listen to Rick Monday describe the third inning of this game. If you can't tell me what the score of the game is by the time I turn the tape off, I will shoot you in the thigh!"

It hasn't stopped raining here in about 47 days.

Me either...

You mean that's not his real face?

Did I mention once again I'm glad the Dodgers signed Bill Mueller?

These are definitely not the 2003 Dodgers. I thought this was supposed to be the post-steroid era.

Good grief.

That's for sure. All of this year's pitchers are garbage.

You didn't already think that? I thought everybody did.

Bullpen anyone?

"Stop sucking"?

You need to update that place.

in a position to succeed

Oh, you have been. I gave up checking a few weeks ago.

It was an illusion, just like Seo's second half last year.

I didn't trade him. Blame Midas.

is the wind blowing out in Pittsburgh or what today?

Now that I've been proven wrong, he's down to the Furcal signing.

Mueller has been good so far. Make it one-and-a-half.

Meanwhile, for whatever reason, 142 sort of explodes across the page this evening . . .

Beltre - 4/27 (.148 BA) with 0 XBH, 0 RBI, 2 SB, and a 3/6 BB/K ratio
Bradley - 6/24 (.250 BA) with 1 triple, 3 RBI, 1 SB, 6/6 BB/K ratio

D. Sanchez - 5 IP, 0 ER, 1 H, 2 BB, 6 K's

Scrappy!

I would like to have statue of Sandy Koufax in my front yard.

And after Jose Cruz safely reaches base, I am informed as to his true identity.

202 that does seem to be the case doesn't it?

I mean, the DODGERS need you!

When you're down a run, letting the closer hit is kind of a bad idea.

That said, bad loss but what have we learned in a week is that this team can score runs but until they can get 6 innings out of their starters and find some answers in their bullpen, they are going to have to score 6-7 runs a game. Sad thing is they are averaging that are they are at .500.

I see this team as a middling team anyway, but let's not get too up or down on any facet of the team yet.

Grits was out-managed by Jimbo? That doesn't say much about his strategically abilities.

Also, Conor Jackson grounded into a 7-5-4 DP. How do you pull that one off?

Move J.D. to centerfield.

Move Jose Cruz Jr. to right.

That way we wouldn't have Jason Repko striking out three times a game (even though he has improved that from four times a game last year).

its okay, lance carter is a "great" reliever!

Conclusion: This team is not clutch

244- who plays left?

Could you tell us what our opponents have scored by inning this year? That might show us how non-clutch we really are.

Ricky Ledee currently.

When Nomar gets back, we have two situations:

1. Put Nomar at first and either send Loney back to the minors or keep him on the bench.

2. Move him to left field and put Ricky Ledee on the bench (we know how effective he is as a pinch-hitter).

Keep going. The word you want is "strategic".

lol.

Where are you getting this?

TV or Internet?

line so far

4IP 3h 1er 1bb 8k 1hr (probably wind aided)

8 strikeouts in 4 innings for Billingsley. Put him in the rotation and he's our #2.

Bill Mueller went 4-for-4 with two homers and three RBI against the Pirates on Tuesday.
Both homers came off Ian Snell. Mueller, not having any difficulties in his return to the NL West, is 13-for-27 with a 1/3 K/BB ratio. It's just too bad he's a Dodger. He's practically guaranteed of making a trip to the DL prior to Memorial Day. Apr. 11 - 10:02 pm et

Odom has a triple-double after 3 quarters.

292
I don't think I even realized Jimmy was on the roster until I just saw his name in the box score.

The third run came on a bunch of grounders, nothing was really hit hard. McPherson went deep for the first two

the 51s win! the 51s win!

my friends are idiots on it. they are talking about MILFs lol.

Frosenhaus

I like that people ask him if he is gay haha

sorry, it just slipped.

he absolutely crushed that thing with such an easy, effortless swing too. almost out of the stadium. but foul :(
