    No Joc vs the RH?

    Kemp and his 2-35 need to be taking a seat on the pine.

    Like to see Mr. no RBI or HR in the last 11 games live up to his reputation.

    Missed Turner sitting it out to start. Struggling to score runs and sitting your hottest hitter doesn't make sense, but it appears they're being judicious with JT's playing time.

    Anything Kemp's done in the past appears to be out the window for now. He's been pathetic.

    Puig hitting #3? That's going to be one tight Cuban sphincter (no homo).

    yeah i don't get it
    if you're going to sit turner [day game after a night game], fine
    but why doesn't kemp get the same treatment?
    i love kemp, but unlike turner he isn't hitting and could clearly use a day off

    well said
    getting paid millions to play a game most/all of us would play for free
    that said, i do genuinely feel for the brancas/moores/buckners of the mlb world who had one bad moment define/ruin their otherwise fine careers
    had any of those moments happened on march 15, no one would even remember
    still... move on
    branca eventually did
    and buckner did too (and a great job by red sox nation forgiving/welcoming him)
    but poor donnie moore
    baseball isn'tshouldn't be life or death
    we're all very passionate fans, but what the dodgers do on a daily basis doesn'tshouldn't define us
    the day after darvish, er, roberts, er, the nerds, er, we lost game 7 i was back at work
    sadder, sure
    but it didn't affect my ability to carry on
    sorry, rambling and possibly making little sense, because i had a setback and am home on heavy meds...



    edit: and no, last night's performance is not to blame in any way... although my cardiologist did have an arizona license plate...

    Brim is throwing a bitch fit about Kenta moving to the bullpen due to the impact it has on the incentives in his deal, as far as i'm concerned nobody made him sign that deal, and whatever happens after he does is his own fault.

    Ryu starts Wednesday, Stripling and Maeda to the pen. What a Godsend.

    Brim just wants to spew his over the top pro-labor propaganda.

    Did you catch the post game interview? He has zero faith in himself.

    thriller was amazing
    i had hardcore punker friends who even loved it
    but back to doc...
    like the mj analogy, but i'd go with a couple other roberts...
    eric and tanya
    both had their 15 minutes
    but now both are useless and old
    hey friedman... dodgers aren't a cinemax b-movie bruh
    and this ain't the 1980's meat

    speaking of dodger digest...

    • Alexander got a strikeout but then gave up a double to bring the tying run to the plate in the form of Arenado. At that point, Roberts’ choices were Rosscup (who blew it yesterday), Venditte (my choice), or the ROOGY Chargois (probably the worst option). Roberts trusted Chargois and it backfired. Probably should’ve just left Alexander in.

    totally agree
    if he wanted to stay in the rotation he should have pitched better

    Damn boys. Can't give away runs at Coors, especially when you're struggling to score yourself.

    He's got to play every day and I don't think the FO is going to give him that chance this year.

    Silver lining of the image problems on the site is that I don't have to look at my Kemp sig anymore
