That Dodger lineup is unreal.... MVP candidate, ROY candidate, Betts, Freeman it goes on and on. With our sorry ass management, taking a split is good. Win a series, its the players in spite of management. [Reply]

And of course with a LH on the mound, he’s on the bench and the next Pujols(according to the real Pujols) is in. He’s hit two home runs lately against LH pitching. It would seem that warrants giving him AB’s against LH pitching. [Reply]

Marmol said it's a routine day off for rest and that he's earned the opportunity to play against LHP. [Reply]

He’s saved this teams ass with late inning home runs and hits. Day off my ass. He’s had a lot of days off sitting on the bench letting those Faberge eggs play at a way way less productive level. [Reply]
Maybe you baseball nerds know something I don’t but that dodger lineup is a killer and we outscored them to win 3/4. Are we good or just a small streak? [Reply]

We have a line up that can score and we caught their staff at a good time.

Regression to the mean. Arenado wasn't always going to be that bad and their hit sequencing was due for some luck. May and Urias are also injured now, so they dodged one and got a hurt version of the other. [Reply]

No doubt Danny Mac is sitting in on an AA meeting.

Fire "BT" good fucking God he's an abomination. At best a discount Hudler knock off. Embarrassing this team can't do better than this calling games [Reply]
