Curious choice for Stripling to make his return in Colorado. Curve isn't as effective there and Stripling is prone to coughing up the long ball. Take the over, kids.
Being semi-superstitious when it comes to sports I have to rain on this very funny game thing and say when we had a regular poll we were winning consistently. Just saying . I appreciate your efforts however I couldn't do this kind of stuff.
Oh a four game set, great. Every starter going is moderately fly ball happy or worse with longevity concerns, and Jansen sucks here — not only does his stuff play down at altitude, the health thing is a huge mental component I would have to imagine. My gut says this will be gruesome but I’m hoping for the best.
Unfortunately I was 1 when that occurred. I’ll have to stick with either the Guerrero or Toles grand slam, I bet Guerrero thinks about that all the time since it probably was the highlight of his life and it was before someone bit his ear off!
Tonight's Dodger lineup at Rockies: Dozier 2B Machado SS Turner 3B Kemp RF Bellinger 1B Hernández CF Grandal C Taylor LF Stripling P
My feeling watching Stripling's last few, is he is kinda done. Many be missing a turn ( did he?), he's rejuvenated and is fine. Or not. But the bi polar offense is always a huge problem. It's the juggernaut 15 or 21 run eruption, or struggle like baby sea turtles trying to not get eaten. The script has been pretty well played out, except for the results. It looks to me like there have been plenty risp for MM and Dozier multiple times, but a lotta whiffs and little results. Just like it is for the rest of the lineup usually. Damn. Was hoping for a difference maker in these two. At least for a couple of months.
yeah, my fault the struggles of kemp, bellinger, muncy, taylor and barnes... yup, all on me and the polls i also take full responsibility for... • world hunger • poverty • childhood obesity and diabetes • unemployment • climate change • the economic situation • international terrorism • energy availability • population growth • the spreading of infectuous disease • the proliferation of nuclear weapons ... and • the kardashians my bad
Finally got Dozier and Turner around Machado. Been asking for that lineup since we got Dozier. Kemp at cleanup is perfect if he can get back into form. Everyone else should lineup after them. Dozier has speed and he and Turner can give professional at bats to help Machado see some daylight.
Probably get killed for this, but did anyone think (who heard it) the A's announcers were not so bad ? Anyone? Anyone? ?
