COMMENTS: Quick, somebody activate the Shpuntsignal! The Dodgers are critically low on V ENERGY, as evidenced by their four consecutive losses. Since the organization can no longer afford Vladimir Shpunt's services, it's up to us fans to channel all our positive energy for that fabled 10 to 15 percent increase in performance. Everybody concentrate now!

Here's hoping GAARP looks at his surroundings, gets confused, and thinks it's 2002.
(Though, I would settle for Kemp and Ethier thinking it's April and May of this year.)
So, I just noticed that, in a slightly shitty move, the Dodgers charged the day-of-game price for tickets in today's Twitter sale for the Yankees series, even though it's technically an advance sale.

@Josh S 4:55p: Actually, that's totally shitty, not just slightly shitty.
Can we conquer Anaheim??????
I'm incredibly tired. I've been so incredibly tired lately.
I always buy tickets in advance...what are gameday prices?
Hey Kemp is hitting 7th!
That's Neeebs saying "pure energy" in the video
Mr. F
The June blues? Maybe a sweep of the Anaheim Anglos will cheer you up!
Ah yes, that's what I meant: totally shitty.
@Paul: Tickets purchased on game day are generally 5-10 bucks more than the advance price.
Dodger offense: I want to know what you're thinking. Tell me what's on your mind!
Well, I found out today that I'll probably be busy this entire weekend, so I guess it's a good thing that I didn't shell out for one of those mini-plans.
I dunno Paul. I've had a lot of trouble sleeping lately. Maybe it's catching up with me.
Well that is shitty. Bad Karma man.
I will be glad when this series is over. I am going and it is cool but man it came with much more stress and angst than any event should.
THE HAEBINGER OF DOOM LIVES RT @DodgertownUSA: Charlie Haeger will start for the #Dodgers against the Angels on Thursday
Hang in there, Mr. F! We need ya as we come into this Lost Angels series and into the weekend.
Monster Import is what I will be using to get back that much-needed energy
of course the Rockies will sweep Boston this week
Thanks for the support guys. Trying to gut through this.
*passes Mr F the can of Monster*
...to get you through tonight...
@MLASF re Chuck Haeger: any idea what the corresponding roster move will be?
@FB - Probably demoting T-Slick to Albuquerque.
@MLASF that'll work
ok it's time for a gamechanger, something that will hopefully turn the tide: a buzzcut
40oz to freedom so I take that walk!
Epale, everyone!
just checking out to send good energy to the Dodgers.
I won't be around much because I'm very sick again so I really want the Dodgers to win in this sad sick day.
I think the game will be on TV (crossing fingers I get Vinny).
In the other hand, if they don't win I might fall asleep early because I'm taking 6 different medications.
@Mr F you're gonna be allright
@Neeebs of course they'll conquer Anaheim
Hi karina! feel better soon! I blame the Dodgers crappy play for your health. They need to win tonight, for you
@Paul I hope we take a lot of walks tonight
Win one for Karina damn it!!
watching the Sox and Rockies on MLB network. the "Boston" on the Red Sox road unis aren't symmetric. The "T" is in line with the buttons leaving a "BOS" on the right side and the "ON" on the left. The B is almost to the armpit while the N is just over the left nipple
nipple
I hope I drink a 40oz tonight.
Twilight question: first they had vampires, then they added werewolves for the second movie. What's in the third movie? What's next in the progression of movie monsters? A mummy?
incredible, Jamie Moyer won his 8th game tonight
Hey everybody!
Feel better, Karina.
...and Mr. F.
what about me? I like feeling better too...
FB
I think SNL did a skit on a Frankenstien twilight movie. I say next should be mutant hipster dufuses with Angel Fedoras.
the Orioles DFAed Cla Meredith. How bad do you have to be for the Orioles to have no need for you? He was good once, wasnt he? I bet somebody picks him up
Taco Bell finishes the job vs Tampa
@Paul - so my level of humor is on par with SNL? I guess it's time to stop telling jokes
Rockies break through vs Sawx, 1-0 in the 5th
karina, get well soon!
@Fred's Brim 6:59: I love how Kevin and Bean call Twilight 2 "the talking dog movie".
Beethoven, Air Bud, Twilight 2
I went to Burger King for lunch. I won free chicken fries by picking Team Jacob. Though I only did so due to his striking resemblance to Spero Dedes.
the sunshine makes the field look like an old movie, like Butch Cassidy or something
Manny loses his bat into the stands
Manny hit that well, just not well enough
anybody from here make it over to LA Rams Stadium tonight?
keep taking guys, I like it
no moving the Russ after the leadoff single. Three big flies, but they didnt carry enough
I feel that inning could have been more, what with the two full counts.
@Sax - I am still waiting for the Air Bud/MVP (Most Valuable Primate) buddy cop film
I don't like that A on the back of the mound. Clayton should scuff an L to go with the A
nice play by Joyce
Hi everyone!
Mr.F & Karina...Get well you two we need you in the foxhole
FB
ahhh the big A. I grew up watching the Rams. Still paying for the therapy. I haven't made the pilgramage to St. Louis. I think they might be headed my way in a few years anyways. .
Ugh, they were still the LA Rams even when they played in the OC.
@fb
What, you too?
I fear the only cure for what ails you is a Dodger victory.
big fastball!
karina's sick? This does not bode well.
Mr. F sick? This does not bode well.
Me sick of the Dodgers losing? Does not bode well for my family. One Shiner Bock on board.
P.S. I'm planning a pilgrimage to the home of Shiner in Shiner, TX in about 10 days.
@Mr C - I am fine, but my humours could definitely use a victory
Oh, I'm also spitting distance away from that stadium formerly known as Anaheim. Loved going to Rams games there.
Angel games are a firework-filled, monkey infested, loud music blaring nightmare.
GAARP isnt in Fenway anymore
@rb - that should be a fun trip. You can visit China Grove too. Not sure what's there, but the Doobies seemed to like it
I think Vin's press box is too close to a luxury box. I keep hearing some clown-ass Angela fans laughing it up while Vin is talking
Crap Matt!
Matty still pulling way off pitches (when he's not staring at them).
Ugh. Kemp still sucks.
@Rbn
nice! Have a Shiner black lager for me.
Remember when Kemp was a silver slugger?
Can Matt bat 10th?
KKKershaw is 7 strikeouts away from being the MLB strikeout leader.
Clay's got it tonight. Runs would be appreciated. I'll take up a collection for some.
*chips in*
Even Vinny sounds bummed about Haeger starting
Nicely done, DeWitt!
wow - nice stop by Joyce!
Julie Chacin has really handled the Sawx tonight. Huston Street was activated today so he'll probably blow it
Joe Beimel in with bases loaded, 2 outs, facing Papi
LADMSB with a hard single to center
RALLY!!!
Beimel gets Papi to ground out
Hooray for GGMSB!!! (The GG stands for good guy)
LADMSB with the steal and advance to 3rd on the bad throw! Now get him home!
Hey, a break!
Don't strand him!
Russ is having a good game.
Russ draws the walk, sets up the frustrating double play
Ugh, it's Andre. Automatic out.
I'm wrong! Hooray!!!
Dre?
In your face, MLASF!
there it is!
We score first!! We score first!!!
Maybe I should do that for every batter.
Ugh, it's Manny. Automatic out.
damn - Manny was right on that
nice hit. now its mannys turn
I think there were more Angela fans at Dodger Stadium last weekend
Dammit, I was right.
Ugh, it's Loney. Automatic out.
FJL keeps it going!
Woo hoo, it works (sort of)!!!
Ugh, it's GAARP. Automatic out.
Russ looks a lot happier tonight - i like that
hey! hey! another run.
oh! no! gaarp
Dammit. Apparently it does not work with aging outfielders.
Hooray!Gaarp
yikes - what was he looking at/for?
I don't like hearing Vin say "doncha know." I keep thinking of John Sterling when he says that.
good inning from Clay
cmon Casey, get it going
work a walk, Matty
BISON POWER!!!
Kemp?
That'll work too! MATTY!
It's about damn time Matty!!
Joyce with the double!
Belated BISON!
Ugh. It's Russ. Automatic out.
Well, this seems to be going well.
These Angel announcers are fucking killing me man.
dodgers are 11 and 0 when Kemp hits a homerun.
I just made that up but it sounds good.
christ - do Clayton's walks ever come with an out recorded?
Paul, "have a nice Shiner black lager." I'll find room.
Actually, it will be my second trip to the Little Brewery in Shiner, TX.
Just got out of the spa and 3 beers on board. Time for a Dodger victory.
Shame about France and all (snicker, snicker).
Paul, 17% of the people don't believe in statistics; everyone knows that.
(or whatever Homer tells Kent Brockman)
triple play time.
i don't like walks
Ahhhhhh crap back to back walks.
Epale!
Work is truly the curse of the baseball-watching class.
Ah, what the fudge?
howdy, Krusty
you have good timing
turnin two!
Two!!!! No soup for you!
Lovely! One out and be done with this!
ok Clayton you've gotten your chance, now finish this
that'll do quite nicely.
Nice DP.
Escaped.
there we go - attaboy Clay!
I was ready to throw my laptop at the television
Andre's alive!!!
@Dusty Epale!
@Paul "No soup for you"...very funny!!
Why do they always swing at the first pitch at the wrong time
Dre feelin good again - i like that
I say fuck these guys. We need to beat them to a pulp. I say let's get over this AL losing crap. I say I want a six game winning streak no a 9 game steak. How improbable would that be?
I am saying a lot but really would be incredibly happy winning 6 out of 9.
I'm a little behind on tha TEE-vo but it sounds like I'll take it.
Wish I had that 40z though. Preferably Colt 45 or OE.
MDIL just contributed: " there are too many white guys on the Angels"
good eye, FJL
of course that sets up the double play
Rox beat Sox.
40oz of Old E! Good times. Watch out for those 64 oz.
Man the Beard is broken.
did Clayton breeze through the 5th?
that was an OK AB for Matty
Was someone disrespecting Air Bud earlier in the thread?
RIP Air Bud you were a good boy.
Clayton, you SOB, nor more walks!
Blake needs to shave the beard then regrow it to coincide with a triumphant revival in batting form.
lordy
Kid K getting loose with the walks
that's fine, make them swing Clayton
no homers for Abreu please
son
of
a
bitch
i can't stand that MFer
FACK.
shit
we still got this, but it's just less fun now
stupid walks
I hate the AL.
it seems like we are giving up a lot of three run homers this year.
Sigh...
Boy that French team sure did suck something awful.
Clayton's ERA hit a season low tonight.
Too bad it didn't last.
Great now I am going to get texts from God about the Dodgers interleague problems.
get into one, Manny
Im counting any win against an AL team as a bonus.
Set the bar low and its not so frustrating.
dammit
Trademark shitty inning at the plate after a shaky one on the mound.
Turns out I was posting in the puzzle solution thread for the first three innings. Nice.
You can find my rapier wit over there, if you missed it.
The 12% of you who texted that GAARP has contributed more than Carroll or Reed Johnson should be shot, drawn, and quartered.
Oh no, Honey's going out to the mound.
being forced to watch the Dodgers play the AL is punishment enough.
May the Angels burn in hell for besmirching my beloved Ramones.
. . .and I'm out of Shiner. This does not bode well.
Then Clay breaks the 12-6 on Napoleon.
wonderful
Ugh. Damn balks. I bet Lyons thinks that was a balk.
balk, awesome.
this night started off so well.
they called a balk on that? booooo
Oh for the love of fuck.
WAY TO GO MARTIN!!!
thank you russell martin.
SAY HELLO TO MY LITTLE FRIEND!!!
Hey, a pickoff!
And that would have scored Rivera...
Talk about timely.
Daaamn, that was close.
Okay Kershaw, keep it together
Dodgers, will you pull your head out of your ass and start hitting the god damned ball to where the opposing players are not waiting to catch the ball before it hits the ground first?
That's my one wish.
Oh, and a 64oz of OE. I guess that's my other wish.
Yahoo!
Have I mentioned that I really dislike the Anglos?
WTF with these guys?
KERSHAW
KEEP IT TOGETHER
YOU CAN DO THIS
shite
nice line by Vin
DB,
64 of the OE?
And one for my homiez.
Lockjaw Time!
here comes torre with the hook.
kershaw out, kid looked tired and kendrick already has hit him twice tonight.
No complaints.
with that being said belisario could easily wild pitch in a run.
I could use a Salonpas right about now.
Or some more Shiner.
Woman, get thee to the store!!!!!!!
