Game 90 Thread: July 12 vs. Brewers, 1p

The reason I stopped reading Amazing Spider-Man (but that's another story for another blog)

Brett Anderson (5-5, 3.12) vs. Kyle Lohse (5-10, 6.29).

Win or lose in today's game, the Dodgers will enter the All-Star Break after today's game with the third-best record in the National League, behind the St. Louis Cheaters and the Pittsburgh Pirates. The Dodgers are also likely to have the largest divisional lead in the majors.

And yet...I don't know, man, I'm still worried, starting with today's game. We've seen Lohse already this season (May 4; Lohse and Kershaw both get NDs, but the Dodgers lose 4-3), last night's game lacked offensive punch, and even Clayton Kershaw is going to take some time to re-fuel for the second half Clayton Kershaw, a late admission to the 2015 All-Star Game, will probably be cruelly forced by Bruce Bochy to pitch 45 innings. Do you think we'll phone it in today?

Kershaw added to the ASG for the fifth consecutive year, as Scherzer opts to pitch today instead
