Game 48 Thread: May 25 vs. Reds, 7p

“But the mean reds are horrible. You're afraid and you sweat like hell, but you don't know what you're afraid of. Except something bad is going to happen, only you don't know what that is.”

Scott Kazmir (3-3, 5.23) vs. Dan Straily (2-1, 2.85).

So said Truman Capote in "Breakfast at Tiffany's". Look, it's hard to be afraid of a 15-31 team, and the Dodgers certainly have been out to a good start in this series against the Reds (taking the first two games). But tonight, we throw Kazmir, whose last start (against the Padres) was so pathetic, even Kenley Jansen couldn't come in to salvage the victory.

Something bad is indeed going to happen tonight. But at least there's a day off tomorrow.

Seriously, can we please trade Crawford for a bucket of baseballs or something

They'd better be golden baseballs, for what I think he is owed.

Kazmir starts off easy, ends the inning scary.

Greg said...

Weirdness. 5Ks in 2 innings.

Greg said...

Just get it out of the infield, Thompson.

Oof. Not looking forward to those four games at Wrigley. Kazmir, Stripling and our bullpen in that tiny-ass ballpark? Get your booze ready, everyone.

Greg said...
