PLAYERS: Andre Ethier,  Rafael Furcal
TEAMS: Los Angeles Dodgers

Andre Ethier has arrived... in the Onion. BRECKSVILLE, OH—Local man and casual baseball fan Leon Markham confirmed to reporters Wednesday that he has definitely heard the name of baseball player Andre Ethier. "Andrew Ethier, yeah. Shortstop for the Phillies, right?" Markham said of the Dodgers outfielder. "He's good at hitting. Or maybe he's known for his defense? He's fast, I think. Sounds fast. You know, I might actually be thinking of Rafael Furcal." Markham then imitated a batting stance and asked reporters, "Which one is the guy that does this?"

Nobody Loves the Playoff-Bound Dodgers

Via Sons of Steve Garvey  |  September 08, 2009
Over the weekend, a couple of similarly-themed articles about the Dodgers' starters caught my eye. The first was from the LA Times' Kurt Streeter, who channeled Vic the Brick in saying he doesn't have a good feeling about the Dodgers: Right now, this team has no identity. Are they bashers? Not when the post-purgatory, post-prescription Manny Ramirez is looking every...

Post-Game 141 Thread: Tron Derezzes, Dodgers Lose

Via Sons of Steve Garvey  |  September 10, 2009
DIAMONDBACKS 4, DODGERS 3 Despite knowing that the Rockies had pulled off a win over the Reds, the Dodgers seemed to play rather cavalierly late in this game. George Sherrill escaped a jam in the eighth with men at first and second, and a ball hit to third baseman Ronnie Belliard, who calmly picked it up and walked over to get the force at third by a hair. Somehow, Ramon Troncoso...

And Chad Billingsley Shall Inherit The Earth

No matter what happens today, the result will not reflect on Chad Billingsley's personality, just his skills. Hopefully those skills take a strong upswing to the levels they were at in the first half of this year.TITS GT

Game 140 Thread: Sept. 8 vs. D'backs, 6:40p

Via Sons of Steve Garvey  |  September 08, 2009
Chad Billingsley (12-9, 3.86) vs. Billy Buckner (2-6, 8.29). COMMENTS: When Billingsley last pitched on Wednesday vs. the Diamondbacks, he went through four scoreless innings before giving up four runs in the fifth inning, which stuck him with the loss when the Dodgers' offense could only muster one run in "support". Joe Torre was nonplussed, however, telling the press afterwards...

Preview: Dodgers At Giants, Round 1

Via Frisco Fastball  |  September 11, 2009
Prediction? PAIN. The Giants welcome the ******* assholes hated Los Angeles Dodgers to the Cove this weekend for a three game set, one that will undoubtedly pave the road on the Giants season. Starting today, the Giants are 4 1/2 games back of the Rockies in the Wild Card (with a 3 game series versus them [...]

Peter Gammons Locates The NL West

Via Sons of Steve Garvey  |  September 08, 2009
Credit Peter Gammons for breaking through ESPN protocols and writing a nice piece on the NL West, which he points out is 24 games over .500 in games played outside its division. He also had nice things to say about the Dodgers' core, notably its outfield of Manny Ramirez (about whom you can still taste a lingering bitterness from Gammons, a Red Sox diehard), Andre Ethier, and...
