Paul said...: Billingsley led Majors in '10 with a 0.94 day game ERA, including a .194 opponent BA. He looks to help stop losing streak today. @Dodgers.; 4/17/2011 10:02 AM
Paul said...: That is my obligatory positive post. Hopefully it doesn't end up looking like my own independent Pre game Uribe analysis from last night.; 4/17/2011 10:04 AM
Mr. LA Sports Czar said...: WE SUCK; 4/17/2011 10:05 AM
Josh S. said...: Dodgers are winless in day games this season.

Oh yeah, positive...right.

Um, well...

You see...

Hmm.; 4/17/2011 10:34 AM
karina said...: on Karina's fantasy team news, I have both pitchers starting today.I'd wish I could have a match like this week's Roy Halladay and Josh Johnson, one threw a complete game, the other flirted with a no-no.

However, if Carpenter gets lit up, I'd be infinitely happier.; 4/17/2011 10:44 AM
karina said...: Epale, everyone! they'll win this game, I feel it!; 4/17/2011 10:45 AM
karina said...: @Paul so all we have to do is convince Bills he's always pitching a day game :); 4/17/2011 10:45 AM
Josh S. said...: I'm gonna be occupied during the game, let me get some of these out of the way now:

Man on third and we fail to score. Figures.

-

C'mon Bills, hold it together!

-

Another grounder to second on the first pitch. Thanks, Loney.

-

FUCK!

-

Kemp is God! Only down by four now.

Kyle Baker said...: Sitting here watching the Nats game. So this is what offense feels like?

Nats up on Brewers 7-2. Danny Espinosa and Pudge have both left the Yard.; 4/17/2011 12:30 PM
Paul said...: I was thinking the same thing re: offense when I was watching...well every game this morning.; 4/17/2011 12:40 PM
