Long long summer?
Kershaw went 7 innings and gave up only 2 runs...and Baez pitched a no run 8thStunned disbelief. That game now seems very very important for more reasons than I probably understand right now.
Long long summer?
but before you get to excited, keep in mind Angel Martinez was working home plate, the ump with one of the biggest strike zones in mlb
(long before there was a PFA i had my Grenade & Crossbones avatar at DD)
Puig got kershaw 1st pitch for a home run
I'm still impressed with how good Freese is when it matters.
Whenever I'm thinking, "This guy really needs to get on base here" or "This guy really needs a hit here", he does it.
And he's about to turn 36. He was one of the few Dodgers to hit well in the World Series, too.
The only thing that sucks about him is that he's very slow on the basepaths.
Great pickup and re-signing, though. Really useful to have a guy like that around.
Even his walk last night was clutch, as he took some excellent pitches which totally appeared to be strikes until the last second.
Many were excited about Kershaw's relatively good outing (minus the Puig HR), but it was against the Reds, who have been pretty bad thus far.
More importantly, though, Bellinger was nailed in the knee by a pitch.
Nothing was broken, but it clearly hurt a lot, and he will miss a few games. This might end up derailing his super hot hitting, which would be sad. He hit well just about every single game so far, and something like this can screw it all up.
Haven’t been able to scratch that itch down under Druff?
Here’s your free pick:
Astros/A’s under 9 -119
Two tremendous pitchers in the marine air.
This is going to come as a surprise to you Druff. It’s gonna be like the first time you heard your father cuss. So brace yourself
I didn’t fully understand who the Dodgers were last night.
I’m seeing two mid market teams by 25 man payroll - battle each other and I’m getting to bet a home dog, Brewers. Urias is a favorite? Multiple units baby
$110,198,628 Brewers
$109,758,862 Dodgers
185,412,146 World Champion Red Sox.
Similar records but Brewers have a tougher strength of schedule (big surprise). These two teams are very very similar in style and ability. I am long the Brewers for season.
Urias was pitching a no-hitter into the 5th inning. He was pitching strikes like he just didn’t care. Fearless and brave. That’s NEVER Urias. Typically, Urias got lit up by the very same Brewers 5 days previous. His trademark is fucking around the edges and losing control. So much god given ability and he sucked.
Then I read he is getting shipped to the bullpen. Wow. Now I get it. He was going to the bullpen even if he pitched a perfect game.
Jesus buddy
He pitched like he didn’t care cause he didn’t. Not about performing as a starter anyway. I wonder if he has the make up to relieve. He is a headcase. He’s also a kid in a bad organization for development. Who knows.
Urias, Stripling, Maeda last year. Why? Cause Hill & Kershaw are hurt? This you can’t predict and plan for? Those two have a wing named after them at the local hospital. With so many elite closers and starters available?
What are the Dodgers doing? Why is their active payroll similar to the Minnesota Twins?
You once said you are happiest with a team that is just good enough to make the playoffs every year. You don’t want to be a champion one year and pay the price later. I think you speak for LA and the Dodgers are listening.
I actually think the Guggenheim story is close to dropping. Much like the 2007 crash revealed Madoff’s Ponzi and bankrupt the Mets - the same is very apt to happen to the insurance trust.
Brace yourself.
