DODGERS: Offseason Thread

fuckin beast mode. beastmode dont care!

 

That was the difference in 2010, do you think he was doing those kinds of workouts in the offseason before 2010 with Rihanna? No, those were the workouts he did before 2009 and 2011 when he made huge improvements. I can't wait to see what he's got in store for us in 2012.

i love him so much

 

Sex

 

Kemp is the shit!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!

 

Damn kemps going hard no days off.

Low key wanna see Matt kemp with his shirt off in those workout vids... Dont judge me.

 

I remember years ago seeing an offseason workout video on Jerry Rice and him saying that it was what kept him the best in the game. This Kemp video reminds me a lot of that Rice video. I just wish all the Dodgers had his drive.

 

kemp sleeps in the OKC jersey they just gave him a few weeks ago
awesome

and im so glad we locked him up.

 

1/12/2012:​

Sellers reportedly suffered a "serious" groin injury during winter ball, but it sounds as if he'll be ready for the start of the season, reports the Dodgers' official site.​

Didnt even hear about this...lol ouch​

 

The Red Sox are willing to give Roy Oswalt a one-year deal worth $5-$7MM, but the veteran remains reluctant to pitch in Boston. However, as we've heard elsewhere, the 34-year-old hasn't ruled Boston out.

WTF? He wants to play in a pitcher friendly park and we are not at least offering 6mil/1 year? If he is 90 percent he is better than Harang and Capuano. I think we are stupid. Kershaw/Bills/Lilly/Oswalt/Harang/Capuano....how fucking hard is this? If Rubby comes back hard and Eovaldi look good, you trade the excess for a hitter or reliever. This is simple shit folks.

 

But you're going into this with probably a fairly high IQ , SDF... you are miles ahead of CollettiCo. You have to look at things from the Ned perspective...like...duhh. Drool...Uribe ! Slurp!
As long as he is here, the mysteries will continue....the "simple shit" to most of us will continue to elude him...it will just never happen.
Like Rick and Ilsa "always had Paris", Ned will always have Bradley for Ethier. And that one deal has made his Dodger career.
All you hear is "he's under financial restraints" from his supporters.
Everyone of those people seem to forget what he did when Frank spent as much as anyone on ballplayers...he bought shit with it. Useless shit. Staggeringly expensive shit. Just Plain Shit.

 

Ned has a knack for equalizing things out on both sides of the equation. Shit in=Shit out!

 

Well, a testament to Ned's uncanny timing when signing veterans. Always seems to get 'em when they are ready to collapse or get injured or get caught juicing. Or they just suck as soon as the Dodger Blue goes on. For whatever inexplicable reasons. Amazing.

 

It is when a player is most at risk for the problems that you mention thatn he is at the price point Ned is willing to pay. Ned is calendar challenged and when their agent gives him their stats for the previous five years he usually fails to note that the most recent presented season was five years earlier. Other GMs want to pay for where you are at now, Ned prefers to sign based on five years earlier. Ned has accomplished nothing worth a turd over the last five years. Who the hell other than Dre has he signed or traded for who is seriously expected to be a major impact next year? I am not counting the most recent signing but he sure as hell has not built a very competitive team based on long term anything beyond two years at best. With the exception of Dre. Frank needs to go and Ned needs to be let go day one.

 

He does get lucky with those every once in a while, like in the case of Randy Wolf that had a bounce back year with us. However, those are so few and far between. Ned needs to go.

 

Many of us will not be able to accept change and moving forward if Ned is still the GM.
