Random rantings and ravings about the Los Angeles Dodgers, written by a small consortium of rabid Dodger fans. With occasional comments on baseball, entertainment, pop culture, and life in general.
From Dodgers.com:
The Dodgers will travel down the 5 Freeway to Anaheim to play the Angels in an exhibition game at Angel Stadium on Friday at 7:05 p.m. PT. Left-hander Clayton Kershaw will make his final Spring Training tuneup before he's scheduled to start in the second game of the regular season against the Pirates on Wednesday in Pittsburgh.

On our way to the stadium! Go dodgers!
Oh man, that Manny/Mota (heh) pic could lead to some incriminating Photoshops.
Why is Andre not playing?
There is no Dodger broadcast on TV, correct? I seem to be only getting the Angel broadcast on My13.
Nope, it's the My13 broadcast. Actually looking forward to hearing Victor Rojas. Aside from his Angeldom, I really liked him as a baseball commentator when eh was on MLB Network.
Santana=Amish?
Furcal w leadoff double. He's not running very well is he?
JMart, hitting for power already!
Free preview on MLB.tv is broke.
Gotta get more runs out of that favorable situation, guys.
Nice first out, KKKKKKershaw!
Abreu looks like he trained with...me...during the offseason.
#fatass
Half to Tokyo on hand to watch Matsui.
Hey, this game thread tastes almost like the real thing!
Santana gets pounded by Johnson
Reed Johnson going yard!
Santana seems to be right back where he left off last year.
Santana seems a long way from that big Grammy-winning comeback album.
That was useful
Great double play. Now, if only the beard would return.
That's fucking aggrivating as hell.
Kershaw looks CONFIDENT. He's thrown a curve on two out pitches that I noted, resulting in a K on both.
Kershaw starting to waiver a bit.
Man it would have been nice to cash some of those runners we had in.
Stay composed Clayton.
Nice recovery.
GA stickin it to his old mates!
Stranded lead off doubles leave me...unfulfilled.
Are they broadcasting from the fountain? What's all that noise?
The highlight video of reeds homer is titled "johnsons solo Jack" on MLB at bat. HA!
Niiiice, Nic!
"Deep enough to score Johnson" <-what I told my prom date
Joe is getting the most out of his Johnson.
Oh, and if we return Monasterios to the Phillies, I will punch a kitten in the face.
Thank the gods he's not going to be an everyday starter.
Just had to warn a group of nine year olds that they are allowed to scream anything but Dodgers suck.
See that fat fuck wearing the Angels onesie? #TOOL
Not the guy wearing the Dodgers onesie, though. He's cool.
Nice DP!
Sorry, I was watching some porn.
Nice double play, Carroll, et al!!!
Velocity's still a bit off (by Broxton standards), but he seems to be getting into rhythm.
Russell hit ball?
Martin hit a single, but not a home run. Clearly his power is gone. Bring in Ausmus.
Stupid.com?
@dusty
Followed up by a shot up the middle, natch.
At least the Angels broadcasters are showing us a little respect by not handing Colorado the division right now.
Closser's got a bit of the concerned/constipated Jeff Kent face on him.
It is not Miller Time.
I'd have to rewind the Tivo, but I'd swear I saw a lone African-American Angels supporter in the crowd.
Miller, can you read this eyechart:
AAA
Damn good thing Miller the Tattooed Lady is not going to be on the big league roster.
I know it's preseason, but in tired of this bullshit.
DB. The black dude was probably Tony Reagins. Haha
Please keep in mind that the bus to Albuquerque is idling in the parking lot, Mr. Miller.
I like Scioscia's face. He's probably thinking, "Why the hell is everyone so excited?"
Nice aggressive throw (and on target) Johnson!
Hah.
Announcer: Now batting, Hanley...
Crowd: YAAAAHHAHAHA
Announcer: Statia
Crowd: Fuck
Hu must feel like a bigger dick than Greg Oden.
If I don't hate losing the the damn Angels, I'll be dipped in shit.
Wonderful ending.
At least the Lakers are taking care of business.
I haven't seen so many white people cheering for a black guy since the DNC.
Dodgers lose, but MLASF for the win.
I call that a wash.
The Dodgers won this game. The Isotopes lost it.
Nice, Josh.
Well, losses are starting to piss me off, so it must mean the season's close to starting. I'll see you all tomorrow afternoon.
I'm headed to bed. Anyone else waking up early for the ManU v CHelsea match?
*ducks*
Dusty - Yeah, I've got the alarm set for 4:30. Unfortunately, I won't get to see the entire match.
(Who) will never be a major leaguer!
@neeebs
I'll take Taiwanese middle infielders for 600, Alex.
@Dusty
Yup. I need a pick-me-up after that Benfica match, and a throttling of them red devils is just the thing.
Hu makes Blake DeWitt's awful defense vs the Indians even more concerning.
It's only spring training, though. Keep your Chin-Lung up!
@Dusty
I've always found it funny that we stole the Brit's drinking song for our national anthem, and they stole our abolition hymn as a football taunt.
I hope your boys come through, because I need to work up a good froth to prepare for City this week.
@ Mr. C-
Ironic, ain't it? I believe that's why the State Department calls it a Special Relationship.
I won't make any comment about a certain historically famous football club stealing a fine enough Johnny Cash song and making it a Kop End staple. ;-)
*furtively*
Wouldn't know anything 'bout that...
I wouldn't call it a throttling, but it will do.
Also, looking at the fixtures, I'm realizing the Reds don't even face off against City again this season, which would be embarrassing, but for the fact that we're not playing any clubs at the top of the table except 1 last gasp v Chelsea in May.
For the record:
Who the fuck are Man United,
Who the fuck are Man United,
Who the fuck are Man United,
And the Blues go marching on!
