Freeway Series Game 3 Thread: March 29 vs. Angels, 6p


Dan Haren vs. Tyler Skaggs

This is about as much as we can tout tonight's game, which is mercifully the last exhibition/Spring Training game that is strangely trapped between regular season games Down Under and our stateside opener in San Diego tomorrow. Not a lot of regular players from either team are likely to figure, at least for very long, but nonetheless we'll dutifully follow along.

Real one tomorrow, but let's squeeze some blood out of the proverbial turnip tonight. It's at Anaheim and covered by the Angels TV provider, thus most of us should be able to watch. So we've got that going for us, which is nice.

Anyone know who we are starting for the three games in San Diego?

Dusty Baker said...

Puig RF
Crawford DH
Ramirez SS
Gonzalez 1B
Van Slyke LF
Uribe 3B
Ethier CF
Turner 2B
Ellis C
Haren RHP

Dusty Baker said...

Ryu definitely for tomorrow. After that not sure. Kershaw will be saved for the home start assuming his back is ok.

Steve Sax said...

Hmm. So I'm guessing that means Ryu and then Greinke for the Tuesday afternoon game, followed by Haren Wednesday.

Dusty Baker said...

Aaaaannnd...Kid Ki goes on the DL to start the season. Will not start the home opener. Ryu will instead.

Dusty Baker said...

@Sax

Shit-news:

As of now, it will be Ryu, Greinke & Haren in that order against the Padres. For the Giants, it will be Ryu, Maholm or Beckett & Greinke.

Hideo Nomo said...

Man, I read "For the Giants, it will be Ryu..." wrong.

BJ Killeen said...

Watching now. Will we see them play tomorrow on TV?

Dusty Baker said...

A-Gon looked terrible in that AB.

Dusty Baker said...

@BJ

Should be on ESPN tomorrow.

Dusty Baker said...

Need to post a new lineup at this point:

Baxter
Butera
Gordon
Figgins
T.Robinson
Pederson
Seager
Turner
Ellis

Dusty Baker said...

I can't believe I missed/forgot the fact that Traybon Robinson is back with the Dodgers. We should go around and get all the once-highly touted prospects that Chad Moriyama is still bitter about being traded away, just to close the loop.

Dusty Baker said...

Although apparently it's a different Robinson that is now in to battle Cy Skaggs.

BJ Killeen said...

Um, Haren? Really?

BJ Killeen said...

Um, Haren? Really?

QuadSevens said...

Haren looks terrible.

BJ Killeen said...

Thanks Dusty

QuadSevens said...

How's everyone's March Madness brackets looking?

Dusty Baker said...

Snap poll:

a) Haren sucks

b) Haren blows

c) both of the above

QuadSevens said...

Gotta go with C.

Dusty Baker said...

Alright Figgy - we're back in it now.

Kind of.

Dusty Baker said...

Ok I'm going to stop bitching about how bad Dan Haren is.

And start bitching about how bad Brandon League is.

Hideo Nomo said...

HOLY SHIT THIS IS A BORING INTERVIEW.

Hideo Nomo said...

Fuck spring training in the nose! Time for real games again!

Hideo Nomo said...

I forgot we had a designated SoSG non-traditional fucking location. I'm cold slippin'.

Dusty Baker said...

I hope they're wearing that god-awful camo shit when we administer their first of many beatdowns of the season.
