Tuned in and saw the leadoff runner get stranded then watch cody single to leadoff and not move ffs. I know I'm a broken record but WHY can't we try and plate a run especially against a tough pitcher???
Instead of chucking $$ at brittle like Heaney, Duffy, Nelson, etc, we could've kept Kenley and not traded AJ Pollock. Bauer's $$ is free from the books so we had flexibility. He fucked up
Absolutely every fucking thing that could go wrong and fail did. What a scummy game. Freddie fails. Bazooka fails big time. Thpmpson fails. After a nice comeback from a walking wounded team. I don't have a fucking clue why Alberto is on the team...he has the worst plate discipline I've ever seen from a MLB player. Swings at shit. All shit. Any shit. And if a pitcher is stupid enough to put one over, he swings like a madman and misses it.I guess the court jester thing is real important. Hire a pro or an imp, whatever, but if this guy is going to play for Lux, at least get a guy who can put a bat on the ball. And of course, Kenly comes in and Ks everybody. With the ump giving him a tongue bath. They sure have a better closer than we do. It's a long season...we may get a chance to get even, OR, we may shit the bed like tonight. We've got both ways well covered.
Graterol is nothing more than Pedro Baez 2.0. His shining moment as a Dodger is Bellinger robbing Tatis and bailing his sorry ass out in the NLDS vs the Padres. More Almonte, less Graterol please Hanser is nothing more than another Sheldon Neuse. What a fucking sorry excuse for a baseball player. Sitting on a 2-0 fastball and is still late as hell. Nice dance moves in the dugout though How does an organization like the Dodgers have a lineup with no depth or power and a bench that resembles a bottom tier minor league team? Embarrassing. Lots of glaring weaknesses on this team. Maybe Friedman can ship off the next Yordan Alvarez or Oneil Cruz for studs like Josh Fields and Tony Watson this deadline and fix everything.
Time for Alberto to be Old Yellered. Striking out is one thing. Having no clue is another. He was shown the door by the Rangers, Royals and Orioles. Speaks volumes. Ninth might have been a lot different if not that Ray Charles-like strike three call on Bellinger. Should have been a leadoff walk that puts some doubt in Kenley's mind. I'm as down on Bellinger as anyone, but that was a great AB in the 7th. Figured he was a sure K after he just missed on the go-ahead HR. Instead he stayed calm and drove the ball up the middle.
Let's be real there, that would've made it a 2-2 count. It probably only sped up the inevitable result. Jansen sitting at 96 is unhittable anyways. The real, real bad missed call was on Freddie Freeman with the bases loaded and Will Smith not coming near the strike zone.
brilliant you know, you could save the scrubs for colorado... instead of putting them in with your best starter (so far) on the bump fucken idiot i realize taylor is struggling mightily but at least he has a chance of barrelling something up alvarez would be lucky to make contact during bp mckinstry v thompson, meh
this kind of incompetence would be grounds for termination from most jobs with mlb umpires, not so much but no reason for concern... zero accountability always produced good results, right?
