Me Not Know, How Grade Does Matt Kemp Get?

Mlb_jun_17_bb12

Picimg_mlb_apr_07_4e51
Randy Wolf (5-6, 3.55) vs. Joe Martinez (2-0, 5.87). COMMENTS: The suddenly-third-place Giants find themselves in need of an ace, but he doesn't start until tomorrow. Instead, they're turning to the hard-headed rookie Martinez, who won his first game back from the disabled...

2009 MLB Draft-Dodgers-Day 1 Recap

With their first pick in the draft, the Dodgers selected collegiate pitcher Aaron Miller.My initial impression of him is positive, and not just because of the predictable fluff that comes out after the pick was made. It was pretty much a given that Logan White was going to take a pitcher...

Dodgers at Giants Bottom of the Third

Fred Lewis just got beaned in the foot on a super sliding slider. The pitch did not look like it was going to be within 6 inches of him. It broke hard. As long as he misses that much, I don't mind.Randy Winn got a hit through the hole on the right side because James Loney was busy...

If It's Done, Let it Be the Dodgers

Don't get me twisted, I'm still not up for trading Miguel Cabrera but if there was one team who we should be doing business with, it's the desperate Dodgers. It was reported yesterday that the Marlins were shopping Cabrera during the trade deadline last season and the Dodgers...

DeWitt Called Up, Ozuna Designated

Wow, this certainly came out of nowhere. It's not a bad thing though, because this could mean that Russell doesn't have to play 3rd when Loney or Blake need a breather. Could this mean that *gasp* Russell will actually get a real day off?

Captain, I Think We've Hit an Iceberg

Mlb_jun_03_867c
What's next, locust? James Loney and Russell Martin stopped hitting, Chad Billingsley pulled a hamstring, Jonathan Broxton stopped saving and Hiroki Kuroda took a line drive off his head and was carried off the field. The Dodgers let a 3-1 lead get away in the ninth, losing their...

Thome Don't Play That (1B)?

Jim_thome_bf17
Ned Colletti pulled off a pretty surprising and gutsy move at the trade deadline, picking up Jim Thome from the White Sox and Jon Garland from the Diamondbacks right before the music stopped and everyone had to take their seats. Garland's acquisition aside (which is obviously protection...

Post-Game 120 Thread: We Can Beat Your #5 Starter

Mlb_jun_01_089f
DODGERS 7, CARDINALS 3 This is one of those games you love to see in person (as I did): the Dodgers open up a big lead early; unlikely bats spring forth (Russell Martin goes 2-for-4 with an RBI, raising his average to .263); unlikely starters do fine (Juan Pierre, subbing for a flu...
