Josh Beckett (0-0, 2.45) vs. Tom Koehler (2-2, 2.97).
One might say that Beckett has been waiting for his first win of the year, in all four of his other starts. But if Beckett can replicate his last start, an eight-inning, 2 ER outing, the Dodgers could certainly use that shot in the arm now. The bullpen, gassed after a doubleheader (and extra-inning game, in which Kenley Jansen, who leads the league with 18 appearances, threw a season-high 34 pitches), needs a rest. So if Beckett can keep that left-center-field monstrosity of Marlins Park from going off, while pitching deep into Friday's game, it would be awesome.The Dodgers snagged a hard-earned series sweep in Minnesota. But the Marlins are coming off a sweep themselves, over the Braves (now reeling, the Braves of course face the Giants this weekend). The Dodgers enter the weekend a half-game out of first place and a half-game ahead of the Rockies (who host the Mets this weekend). Lots to watch. Let's go, Blue!

Roster weirdness happening, evidenced by the return of Figgins.
Episode VI: Return of the Figgins
Look, he's brought us a Figgins pudding.

Poor Rtu.
Same to Rtu!

I do miss this place.
So do I.
When should we do SoSG Fest, and who can bring their laptop so we can all gather around Gameday?
Have we all given up on getting SportsNet LA? I know I don't even check for news anymore. The movement has lost steam, for sure.
Even TWC's ads are saying they're "the only place to see the Dodgers."
I am resigned to no Dodgers of TV this season.
It's weird, man, and I don't like it.
Even though my IP address somehow isn't affected by the MLB.tv blackout, MLB.tv always works like shit for me. So, I usually end up turning it off in frustration.
We miss you guys here too. Its just not the same with so many of us not here.
I'll bring my laptop and a TWC password, and we'll hack the shit out of a broadcast.
I've got a connection or two.
Or we convince Dusty's local to get TWC. . .
wait, Lamppost Pizza in Fountain Valley has TWC on 2 TV's just for Dodger games. We can have SOSG fest there and my wife will let me attend.
(Full disclosure: decent beers on tap; Stone, Sammy, Newcastle, a Mexican beer, guy that calls me Bill*)
*Simpsons reference
I've got the mlb.tv thing working on my end. It's patchy, but okay.
I'm hoping that getting The Kid back Monday is going to be the Puig like spark we got in June.
A girl can dream.
It's official:
SOSG Fest 2014 will be at Sax's house.
I was gonna offer up Casa Killeen for the fete. We would be happy to sponsor another evening as well. Just let us know. 4 recliners, one 60-inch TV, and a Ninja blender. What else do ya need?
I'll be right over!
C'mon down! But we gotta go out at 7 pm.
😩
So, looks like the boys left the offense in Mini Sota, eh?
Yah.
Love that new Fargo show, BTW.
So. We're losing to the Marlins.
I guess that was a "threat."
Hola ya'll.
A little jab at St. Louis courtesy of hockey fans. Because any time's a good time to say "fuck you" to St. Louis.
Sphincter puckered while Beckett pitches to Stanton. This has all the makings of a 500-foot homer.
This Koehler faucet ain't dripping.
Where are we with this game now?
We suuuuuuuuuck.
Even more than usual.
Jose Dominguez, and the wheels fall off the wagon. 6-1 T8
6-2. None out. Here comes the tease
Giants over Braves 2-1, B7
Rox killing the Mets 6-1 in the third
Marmol sucks more than us!

I just ordered a couple of shit sandwiches to be delivered. No tip.
Kemp is batting .205 now. What the hell.
Kemp is a hot fucking mess. When I was watching him at the Yard the other day, I noticed he has absolutely no approach/plan when he steps in. So disgruntled to see what he's turned into.
Made it to Lamppost in FV. Dodgers are on the tv, and I notice they have the #IneedmyDodgers in the corner of the screen.
What good does that do? They are a clueless bunch of sphincters, aren't they?

It's like they're feeding us material.
