With another year of experience, this team will bond and avoid the late season swoons. what they really need to focus on is getting the most out of what they have - meaning longer at-bats, better baserunning and more consistent defense.<BR/><BR/>joe torre will instill the sense of team and that will lead us to the next level as an organization.<BR/><BR/>you must believe.God Bless Tommy Lasordahttps://www.blogger.com/profile/00479925986163690757noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-36360371.post-81767719326241486942007-11-22T11:23:00.000-08:002007-11-22T11:23:00.000-08:00I mentioned this calendar snafu to people earlier ...<B>I mentioned this calendar snafu to people earlier and they all I thought I was crazy!</B><BR/><BR/>But did you have photographic evidence?

But just for the curious, here's the rundown of the rest of the picture subjects:<BR/><BR/>October 2006, team photo (with Lugo, Maddux, Gagne, Drew, and Werth)<BR/>Nov 2006, Nomah<BR/>Dec 2006, Gagne/Maddux (Cy Young winners)<BR/>Jan/Feb 2007, Drew<BR/>Mar 07, Penny<BR/>Apr 07, Kent<BR/>May 07, Martin<BR/>June 07, Ethier<BR/>July 07, Lowe<BR/>August 07, Billingsley<BR/>Sept 07, Furcal<BR/>Oct 07, Saito/Broxton/Tomko<BR/><BR/>So from March onward, all of those guys were 2007 Dodgers (Tomko, unfortunately). Kemp and Loney are still due...let's hope they end up on the Dodgers' calendar next year and not the Marlins'.Steve Saxhttps://www.blogger.com/profile/00930320282262607468noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-36360371.post-37762804894210481392007-11-21T16:02:00.000-08:002007-11-21T16:02:00.000-08:00Then I hope Kemp and Loney aren't on next year's c...Then I hope Kemp and Loney aren't on next year's calendar.Orelhttps://www.blogger.com/profile/08167042485092304070noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-36360371.post-15900728004071030542007-11-21T15:57:00.000-08:002007-11-21T15:57:00.000-08:00Not being at work, I couldn't say with any authori...Not being at work, I couldn't say with any authority, but wasn't Steve Finley on the 2005 calendar? Seriously, it seems like the official calendars have just an amazing list of problems, inevitably picking out players on one-year deals who weren't doing well and <I>obviously</I> weren't going to come back the next year. Also, they have random and non-team-specific events in baseball history on each day. I could do a better job.Robhttps://www.blogger.com/profile/18015219452269186971noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-36360371.post-10275473721884162912007-11-21T15:46:00.000-08:002007-11-21T15:46:00.000-08:00I think SoSG just got removed from the McCourt fam...I think SoSG just got removed from the McCourt family Xmas card list.Orelhttps://www.blogger.com/profile/08167042485092304070noreply@blogger.com
