    Feels like we are destined to lose to the Madres in the WC game.

    A dude that openly confesses his love for cats is a fucking weirdo and can't be trusted.

    I know we scored 0 runs in innings 2-9 but Gonsolin can never be trusted.

    I think he's capable of pitching a really nice game once in a while, for a few innings anyway. But not in a really big situation, and.not with any consistency. I just find him excruciating to watch most times. But that's me.
    Generally, I've always thought he was overrated. Just like Gonzalez, who is mystery to me why he was ever good at all.
    We also had. chances to score and put them on the ropes. We had their " best" pitcher struggling like crazy, inning after inning, and couldn't put any more on the board. The killer instinct seems lacking,just like it did with Jansen on Sunday.
    If the " as Mookie goes, so goes the Dodgers" is really true, then we are in big trouble. He is a little guy,.and his body is showing wear and tear already. But it sure is playing out that way now, at this particular juncture, anyway.
    It's not like they don't have injuries either...they are just as hurt as we are, and kicked our asses.
    Guess they want it more than we do.

    Sad when you wear down their ace after four innings, then go completely dead at the plate.

    Orel said it last night...we used to have anticipation when Cody came up to the plate, now it's just hope.

    5-55 in July with 1 extra base hit for Cody.

    I don't care who you are....your past shouldn't guarantee you a spot in the lineup.

    Cody is one of the worst hitters in all of baseball right now and probably the worst if you dive deep enough...it's a killer to have an automatic out in the middle of the lineup.


    Julio has more hits in his last 20 ABs than Cody has in his last 65

    still don't know who's pitching today for us
    won't matter...
    this offense won't do shit
    even against gayboy wood, who — for whatever reason — is more comfortable pitching in sf
    hmmm...

    Let's face it...these next six games with SFags, one already irreversible, most likely would drive some long coffin nails in this season for us. Should we shit the bed on these games.
    I'd almost rather be in the Padres spot, considering how we look and with simply huge holes in the lineup everywhere, and Muncy on tap to miss some time real soon. Sit back and linger, then in for the kill.
    And a manager that thinks a guy like Reks can help...and other mind numbing moves aplenty.

    amazing when you think about it
    even with the injuries (and bauer), we still have the most talent
    but the giants and padres are better teams
    seems like our players bought into all the preseason hype and decided they'd just coast to another title
    i can't even blame scrubs like reks, neuse, raley, white and reks...
    they're not ready and have no business being up here
    i'm sure roberts is a nice guy, but as a great philosopher once said...

    I think Josiah Gray makes his debut tonight....heck of a spot to put him in but I am sure it'll be another bullpen game and Gray will only pitch a couple innings. Yay

    would be nice to give gray the start, or at least bring him in to start an inning
    but i fully expect roberts to start some bum like nunez, and then bring in gray with the bases loaded

    You may be right...and then it will be spun around to Dave's " baptism of fire" toughness attitude as a positive.

    Well Roberts just said Mookie’s hip is the worst it has been all season. Why was he used last night then? Idiot
