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.

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.

Mr. LA Sports Czar said...

WE SUCK

Josh S. said...

Dodgers are winless in day games this season.

Oh yeah, positive...right.

Um, well...

You see...

Hmm.

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.

karina said...

Epale, everyone! they'll win this game, I feel it!

karina said...

@Paul so all we have to do is convince Bills he's always pitching a day game :)

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.

-

STOOPID URINE.

Orel said...

Cut & paste as necessary.

MR.F said...

I actually won't be online for the game. I have faith in Bills. I started him on one of my fantasy teams!

Orel said...

Epale! Wotcher! Wotchale! Hate! Cries!

Josh S. said...

Epatcher!

Paul said...

Gazpacho!!

Paul said...

Let's get one game against these hydrofrackers!!

Kyle Baker said...

[Insert positive comment here]

There, that's done.

Kyle Baker said...

I'd be infinitely happier if I got lit up.

Kyle Baker said...

Over/under on Bills getting through the 4th today?

Anyone seen the lineup yet?

Kyle Baker said...

LF Gwynn
SS Carroll
RF Ethier
CF Kemp
3B Uribe
1B Loney
C Barajas
2B Miles
P Billingsley

Paul said...

I say over. Barely.

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.

Paul said...

I was thinking the same thing re: offense when I was watching...well every game this morning.

Kyle Baker said...

I swear I caught a glimpse of the rare "hit with runner in scoring position." I feel like I just sighted an ivory-billed woodpecker.


[Heh...I said pecker]

spank said...

Nice pass,Kobe

spank said...

Good play to end the quarter

NicJ said...

Whoa, Spurs lost?

spank said...

DJ Mbenga is on the Hornets?

karen said...

Hi Everyone!

@Dusty 12:24--I think Bills goes over 4 today. Maybe it's because the game hasn't actually started yet but I'm feeling a little bit positive today.

spank said...

Kobe!

Kyle Baker said...

@Karen

That counts as your obligatory positive comment.

Kyle Baker said...

To repeat: Spurs lost

Kyle Baker said...

To repeat: We suck

spank said...

Lakers falling asleep on defense.

karen said...

Maybe Dre has decided to not wash his hair while he has his hitting streak going.

spank said...

Up and in Billz!

rbnlaw said...

I'm positive!!!






. . .that I'm going to have a beer soon.


. . .that at sometime today, Dodger pitching will implode.



. . .that I'll take a sudden, unexplained interest in the NBA playoffs.


. . .that I'll love the sound of Vinny calling the game.

Kyle Baker said...

Wait, did Urine get a hit?

Stopped clock and all...

Josh S. said...

The good: My schedule got freed up.

The bad: I have time to watch this game.

Paul said...

A two out hit with RISP?

Mr. LA Sports Czar said...

Nice and-one for Bynum.

Paul said...

Ughhhh. We are cursed and we suck. That just isn't right.

Josh S. said...

*cuts and pastes*

Mr. LA Sports Czar said...

Plaschke's boy just got a flagrant.

karina said...

at least, it's a pitchers' duel...

Kyle Baker said...

We aren't losing!!!

That's two positive comments in one GT. Whew, I'm tired!

Greg said...

I'm at the game. Lucky if there's 20k here today. Kemp just got one.

Paul said...

If we are gonna score any runs we need a lot of flares in unoccupied places.

spank said...

Spurs lost.

spank said...

KOBE!

Paul said...

Free James Worthy!!

Paul said...

No seriously free him. I think he picked up some more prostitutes and was busted.

Mr. LA Sports Czar said...

The Big Gamer's always doing crazy shit like that.

Mr. LA Sports Czar said...

Paul's making Pau look like an idjit.

Paul said...

Please sign Cody Ross next year Ned.

karen said...

Whew. Bills gets out of the seventh.

spank said...

Lakers don't deserve to win

Josh S. said...

I'm confused. It's the 7th. Why aren't a bunch of scrubby white bullpen guys out there serving up fat pitches?

spank said...

Loney!

(cries)

karina said...

James Loney is breaking my heart...and my faith

*sobs*

karina said...

@Spank loved your comments about MIranda's hand on yesterday's GT

Mr. LA Sports Czar said...

If there's hope for the Kings, then there's hope for the Lakers.

Mr. LA Sports Czar said...

What the hell is with the strike zone? Gameday doesn't even have them on the border, they're just straight-up strikes.

karen said...

Some grease from Dre's hair dripped into his eyes.

spank said...

Dre lost the ball when he looked to see where Miles was.

Mr. LA Sports Czar said...

We are going to lose 1-0.

karen said...

All right, Chadley11

Paul said...

Nice Chad Daytime.

spank said...

It's official. I am not confident with Ethier in right field,

karen said...

^!!

Mr. LA Sports Czar said...

IDJHR right here.

Kyle Baker said...

Come on, Of Jesus. Let's get a run so I can take a nap.

spank said...

Damm

Paul said...

Damn De Jesus was De Robbed.

Kyle Baker said...

Jamey Carroll HR coming up here. I want that badge!

Paul said...

This isn't going to end well is it?

spank said...

I laugh everytime Ackbar walks up to the plate with Eye of the Tiger playing.

Greg said...

Oh dear Lord, no.

Kyle Baker said...

Suck it, Pulgas!

Mr. LA Sports Czar said...

BERKING LANCE FUCKMAN

spank said...

i predict an Epic fail here.

karen said...

This really sucks.

Mr. LA Sports Czar said...

WE SUCK

NicJ said...

Hey we were in it until the 9th.

Progress.

spank said...

FUCK YEAH MILES!

Mr. LA Sports Czar said...

Andre, Kemp, and Stooribe for the ninth.

Kyle Baker said...

a) we suck

b) God dammit Brox sux

c) see a) above

This is disrespectful to Bills' great outing.

*slaps grandmother*

Mr. LA Sports Czar said...

Broxton was really unlucky on that bloop shot by Freese.

Kyle Baker said...

Paul, where's that shot of Everclear that I ordered?

Kyle Baker said...

But Brox is also fooling few people and not blowing it by them as stoppers should do,

Kyle Baker said...

Trever? Sounds like a real hick.

karen said...

Andre!!!

Kyle Baker said...

Walk off right here.

spank said...

It's gotta be the Loc's.

Mr. LA Sports Czar said...

Andre setting the table for an even more crushing defeat.

NicJ said...

I would walk kemp and go after everyone else.

Paul said...

Man on second no outs and our best hitter up....

karina said...

100!

Paul said...

I would just walk Kemp.

spank said...

Boooooooooo

karen said...

WALK OFF BISON!!!

Paul said...

Bison!!!!!!!

La Russa!!!!!!

Mr. LA Sports Czar said...

Huh. I did not see that one coming.

Kyle Baker said...

(dry humps Kemp)

Paul said...

I love Larussa!!!

karen said...

Boy it's good to hear Randy Newman singing!

Kyle Baker said...

I saw it coming at 3:38.

Kyle Baker said...

I still believe in a place called Kemp!

Kyle Baker said...

(dry humps Josh)

Kyle Baker said...

(gives LaRussa a wet willie)

spank said...

Till tomorrow. Lates.

karina said...

WE MAKE PARTY!

Katie said...

(dry humps Dusty Baker)

Orel said...

PGTUP!

Steve Sax said...

Dodgers win a game! Holy crap!

rbnlaw said...

Whoa! No sweep?

Go figure.
