Other notes on tonight's game (from Sax):

  • The Dodgers have given up 122 runs this year, 15th in the NL--with the worst team being tonight's opponent, Pittsburgh. Bring your fleece blanket, as you may be there for a while.
  • Tonight is Dodgertown, USC night. First 20K fans get a Trojan-red USC hat (this looks so wrong); those spending $45 to sit out in the right field lower reserve boondocks also get a free Dodgertown/USC t-shirt and an all-inclusive themed menu (centered around pastrami sandwiches), in addition to Dodger Dogs, nachos, popcorn and soft drinks.

ok lets get this over with

why am I still up? I guess I feel like the more I suffer, the greater the reward in the end

NicJ said...

We just barely hit 200? It seems like there has been a lot more funny in this GT than 200 comments would hold.

Steve Sax said...

Will this Meek inherit the save?

Fred's Brim said...

at least they don't have Matt Capps anymore

Mr. LA Sports Czar said...

Well, that and the fact Pau has an extended contract.

Besides, the Lakers have the midlevel. Maybe someone takes a paycut to win a ring.

NicJ said...

yeah, gotta find some sort of discount PG. we could potentially lose all our PG's this year.

Fred's Brim said...

Charlie steals Sax's line

NicJ said...

it feels like we were shutout more times this april than all of last year.

Josh S. said...

I will only accept all this losing if we turn into the 09 Rockies.

Y'know, without all that losing in the NLDS stuff.

Mr. LA Sports Czar said...

I think I'll take losing in the NLDS right now.

NicJ said...

would it have to be to the phillies again though?

Unknown said...

This game fricking sucks.

karina said...

@Steve Sax they don't suck beyond belief, they are only underperforming. They'll get better and if we all think about it, we have been spoiled the last couple of seasons.

Fred's Brim said...

hurry up

Fred's Brim said...

haha escaped fan!

Fred's Brim said...

at least somebody has a spark

Unknown said...

1.2% on fangraphs

NicJ said...

I wouldn't really call it spoiled. We are the LA freakin' Dodgers. we should expect to be in it all the time. This aint Kansas City, if it was we would have an Ace though.

Steve Sax said...

"and they go down without a whimper"--Vin

good night, moon

Mr. LA Sports Czar said...

A craptacular ending to a craptacular game. When's Manny coming back?

Fred's Brim said...

there needs to be a change - i think i need to buzz my head

Unknown said...

What an appropriate ending to this pile 'o horse poop.

NicJ said...

Ned just said on the radio that he thinks the fan that ran on the fields baserunning ability is sub par.

spank said...

My crack pipe had more hits than the dodgers.

Mr. LA Sports Czar said...

Over/under on people calling DodgerTalk saying they should've kept Slappy McPopup?

NicJ said...

at least lyons finally got his hair fixed.

NicJ said...

JP just lost his leadoff spot in the Sox lineup. So he would probably fit in well here right about now.

Mr. LA Sports Czar said...

Something's going to happen. A trade, a sacking, some kind of change in personnel. There's no way Frank or Ned continue to stand pat. They have to do something, even if it's just for keeping up appearances.

Orel said...

PGTUP

NicJ said...

yeah i kinda feel that too.

Hopefully its GA and carroll for matt cain.

karina said...

@Nic j you're depressing me. @Mr Fist Going Through a Wall: can you make one punch for me?

Nostradamus said...

That was piss-on-a-pantleg pathetic.
