Okay, Let's Do This One More Time Then Get Behind The Guy

Okay, enough throwing at Victorino's head. I'm over it.; 7/31/2012 2:01 PM
spank said...: Dusty's BFF is giving an interview on MLBtv; 7/31/2012 2:09 PM
Dusty Baker said...: @Spank

Frank Lampard is on?; 7/31/2012 2:09 PM
Franklin Stubbs said...: I hereby declare Shane Victorino to be the human unibrow of the Dodger organization.

We keep trying to shave him off, but he grows back thicker and darker each time.; 7/31/2012 2:14 PM
Orel said...: Is that Buster Posey throwing the ball?; 7/31/2012 2:15 PM
Dusty Baker said...: @Orel

No it was in a game against the Marlins. Not sure who the catcher was.; 7/31/2012 2:16 PM
Dusty Baker said...: Interesting, from Ken Gurnick's article on the SV acquisition:

"Victorino is a three-time Gold Glove center fielder, where the Dodgers have reigning Gold Glover Matt Kemp. But Kemp told the club he would move to left field if it meant acquiring a player like Victorino, who hasn't played left field since 2006."

First I've heard that they may consider moving Kemp to LF and put SV in at center. Thoughts?; 7/31/2012 2:17 PM
Franklin Stubbs said...: I'm pretty sure the catcher was Brett Hayes; 7/31/2012 2:28 PM
Mr. LA Sports Czar said...: Shouldn't they move Kemp to right and Ethier to left?; 7/31/2012 2:28 PM
Dusty Baker said...: That would make a ton of sense, Marla. Stop it!; 7/31/2012 2:30 PM
Franklin Stubbs said...: So long as they're both out on the field, I don't object so much to it.

I'd actually rather Andre get shuffled to left, but let's not get ahead of ourselves.; 7/31/2012 2:31 PM
Franklin Stubbs said...: DAMMIT!; 7/31/2012 2:31 PM
Dusty Baker said...: It may make some short-term sense while Kemp continues to treat his hammy with caution. Maybe that was some of the initial thinking.; 7/31/2012 2:34 PM
Dusty Baker said...: The fact that Kemp is ok with a potential move over is even more encouraging. He wants what's best for the team and likes this deal. Right on, Beast Mode.

Franklin Stubbs said...: IF they offer him a contract next year, that would be the configuration I prefer given they'll have spring training to get broken in.; 7/31/2012 2:36 PM
Neeebs (The Original) said...: I think the catcher is Gabby Hartnett.; 7/31/2012 2:54 PM
Mr. LA Sports Czar said...: I just hope Donnie can configure off-days so Shane, Hanley, Matt and Andre aren't all on the bench for the same game. That would be incredibly depressing to watch.; 7/31/2012 2:57 PM
Franklin Stubbs said...: You mean like June?; 7/31/2012 3:04 PM
Dusty Baker said...: @Marla

And, inevitably, that will be a Saturday home game where the fifth starter goes up against our opponent's number one. And I'll be there, crying.; 7/31/2012 3:04 PM
Mr. LA Sports Czar said...: That one game without Kemp, Ethier and Ajellis was sensory torture.; 7/31/2012 3:08 PM
DodgersKingsoftheGalaxy said...: That's nice of MAtty, but if anyone should move it should be Ethier, of course i doubt he'll want to that arrogant prick........oh wait did i say that out loud?; 7/31/2012 3:10 PM
Dusty Baker said...: Per Dodgers, Victorino is expected to arrive tomorrow morning and be in uniform in time for Dodger baseball at 12:10pm.

Damn, wish I could do the businessperson special tomorrow to see this whole new-look squad.; 7/31/2012 3:30 PM
Dusty Baker said...: You said what everyone was probably thinking. DKOTG.; 7/31/2012 3:31 PM
Paul said...: I say put Victorino on the I-5.; 7/31/2012 4:09 PM
spank said...: ^heh; 7/31/2012 4:38 PM
Steve Sax said...: @Stubbs 2:28p: Announcers here on the full clip say the catcher is indeed Brett Hayes.; 7/31/2012 5:58 PM
