The woman in the picture above is Erika Garza. Roberto from Vin Scully Is My Homeboy identified her for me. She's the chick that I posted about here. :o

Vin Scully Is My Homeboy: Jonathan Broxton is so serious. I absolutely love the picture Roberto took with Broxton. :o

Dodger Thoughts: Jon disputes the notion that the Dodger bullpen is overworked. I agree. It's pretty hard to overwork a 13-man staff in the first place though.

Mike Scioscia's Tragic Illness: Totally agree with this post, because I saw it too and had the same reaction. I know it's busy at ESPN, and it's hard to keep up with every detail on every team, but they have a stats department that exists for the sole purpose of making these talking heads look smart, right? May I suggest that they use it?

True Blue LA: Should we worry about Billingsley's workload? Yes. But we should worry about all pitcher's workloads. Unless they suck, then whatever.

Reflections Of Blue: Brandon is one of the latest Dodger bloggers to post about getting press access.

Sons Of Steve Garvey: Orel also gets press access.

Sons Of Steve Garvey: Ronald Belisario and Brent Leach rookie hazing! Yes!

Beyond The Boxscore: Statistically speaking, the Dodgers are indeed the best team in baseball...just not be as much as many Dodger fans think.

Beyond The Boxscore: Statistically speaking, the Dodgers have also had the second weakest schedule in baseball. I believe that, but it's only really relevant when it comes to the playoffs. Sure, the Dodgers would have more losses if they played in the AL East, but they don't.

ESPN: Bill Simmons with a long-winded, but great article about NBA officiating. The only thing I disagree with is the penalty box thing, which is just dumb. :o

Deadspin: Drew Magary has a special message for the 2009 college graduates. Personally, I highly prefer the 2008 version.

Beyond The Boxscore: A pitcher profile on Ebby Calvin LaLoosh, complete with Pitch Fx and everything.

Don’t make Brox angry. You wouldn’t like his 102mph heat when he’s angry… Los Angeles Dodgers behemoth closer Jonathan Broxton storms off the mound after mowing down the Arizona Diamondbacks to cap off a comeback win. Still sittin’ pretty atop the standings.

The Los Angeles Dodgers place Eric Stults on the D.L.

Phils-Dodgers: This Is Baseball. Shake It Off and Man Up.

While we all relive the 9th inning of last night's loss to the Dodgers, watching that stupid double make SportsCenter's top plays, I imagine the Phillies themselves have already shelved it. An 8-game winning streak would have been a juicy bit for a Saturday morning post, losing a close game to LA, in LA, is not the end of the world, nor does it say anything about anyone or...

Post-Game 57 Thread: Doubling with 'Dre

Andre Ethier hits his game-winning double. Raise your hand if you're sure...the Dodgers just scored another walk-off victory! No, you the man! Scrum. Andre couldn't wait to do his post-game push-ups.

Clayton << Cole: Phillies 3, Dodgers 0

At least at this point of his career, Clayton Kershaw isn't Cole Hamels' equal, though he did perform pretty well last night. A tough outing for the Dodgers, whose offense was just stymied by the Phillies' pitching; no Dodger got past second base. Yahoo box • Dodgers recap

Hamels is Master of His Domain; Shuts Out Dodgers in LA

There is something special about going back to your home area and performing well. Just ask Ryan Howard about his games in St. Louis.If you thought Cole Hamels' performance in game five of the 2008 NLCS was impressive, then you should have seen his outing last night in his first start in Dodger Stadium since the NLCS clincher. Hamels threw a complete game on just 97 pitches...

Game chat: Lefties duel for Phillies, Dodgers

Jamie Moyer (6.75) and Eric Milton (3.14) engage in a battle of southpaw survivalists tonight at 10:10 EST from Dodger Stadium. It seems like ages ago when Doug Glanville broke back on the ball and foiled Milton's no-hit bid in the ninth, but it's only been five years. Since then, he's been on and off the DL, settling for work in long relief and in the minor leagues....
