Thread: The July Dodger Thread...

RBI for Jones!
RBI for Jones!
RBI for Jones!

I can't believe it.

How the **** do we only have 3 runs against Rusch?!

****.

That was an ugly, embarassing, shameful, pitiful, disgusting, horrible and terrible at-bat by Jones. That last pitch was just ugly. Ugly, ugly, ugly.

A source advises me that Dodgers scout Tony Howell and Mets scout Mack "Shooty" Babitt (yeah; "Shooty," about whom Billy Martin said after penciling into the lineup 54 times in 1981 "If he ever plays for me again, please, Shooty me." ) have been spotted at the Rangers vs. White Sox series.

The Mets are looking for rotation help and a left field upgrade over Fernando Tatis while the Dodgers are reportedly looking for a starter, a setup man, and SS and / or 3B.

The Mets, I assume, are scouting OFs Marlon Byrd and Milton Bradley, while the Dodgers are most likely putting an eye on 3B Hank Blalock.

More trade winds...

How does Hank Blalock solve anything?!?! Geez. Like LaRoche couldn't do just as good...

I blame The Natural for Today's loss

My blame lies elsewhere... but the pitching only gets better with Washington...

John Lannan, LHP (6-9, 3.29)
Odalis Perez, LHP (3-7, 3.99)
Jason Bergmann, RHP (1-7, 4.21)


Seriously... we will be tested for sure.


Seeing how well this team seems to perform against subpar pitching, I'd say we're in trouble. I smell a sweep... That is..., of course, unless Blake DeWitt starts.

Blalock hasn't had a good full year since '04. Maybe his only good full year, since it's the only season he OPS'd over .750 (Loney, Ethier, Martin, and Kemp are all well above that, if anyone needs a reference).
