4 We were referring to their omission from the Hall, not from your collection.

Lord, how I love Don Sutton's hair.

No, we want EVERY player who ever a Dodger even for a game who made the Hall of Fame to be linked. I want my Juan Marichal photo gallery!

Torre is on Tonight Show in a few minutes. I guess I will stay up.

Wish I read DT before I watched TV tonight.

I really wish I could experience a trip like that with the Dodgers. And understand what kind of people they are. It would be great to get a personal taste of what Joe Torre is like.

The Kemp and Kuo story was pretty funny.

Neel's story is indeed wonderful.

In addition to the parts trainwreck noted (above), I was impressed with the story about Chan Ho Park. Here's hoping the rumors are true, that Park has indeed earned a place (for however long it lasts) on the 25-man roster.

If anyone is interested, Steve Garvey is going to on 10:40am EST on my local radio station ... probably pimping his new book.

Not "my" station ... the local sports station.

Jon and the site are one of the "50 ways to love the Dodgers" in today's Guide section of the L.A. Times.

Does anyone know if there will be a new episode of Lost tonight or will it be a repeat?

I love these photo galleries. For the Gil Hodges M&CS, there's a shot of him and Snider wearing Mets uniforms in Duke's photo gallery. Tommy Lasorda is committing a Rule 5 violation in one picture. And Branch Rickey somehow looked more grizzled as a young player for St. Louis than he did in his later years as an executive.

Comical quote from Luis Goonzalez:

'I came in with the mentality of I was the extra outfielder and be ready to go if something happens, fill in wherever I have to fill in,' Luis Gonzalez said. 'I've been adjusting and adapting for 18 years, so it's no different.

Yeah, I meant that Hodges ought to be in the Hall.
