idc if the game is 8-2

this POS B. League just came in and loaded the bases.
why is he still on my team?

i believe in addition by subtraction.
and i believe our team would just be outright better if he weren't here.

you can't blame the player for being **** when he was already **** when he was signed to an extension.

you and I both know that Brandon League had nothing left when we made that trade with Seattle. unfortunately, after a small sample of respectable work League had put in, Ned Colletti gave this mediocre washed up relief pitcher a deal that nobody else was anywhere near willing.

now Ned doesn't want to admit his mistakes and we are apparently stuck with him for now.

Kemp and A-Gon tearing the cover off of the ball.

come on Haren....thug it out/ settle down...we need you to throw 105-110 pitches and go deeper than usual for this kind of start because somebody (who shall remain nameless) has been burning up our bullpen.

Neddy · Post #44 » by **Neddy** » Mon Apr 14, 2014 1:23 am

never expected Haren to do anything more than he is doing right now. in fact, he has exceeded my expectations. but League needs to go.

anywho, AGON looks like the AGON of the SD Padres days. he is on pace for 60+ home runs. Of course he won't get there, but so far having 5 HRs in 13 games, seems to indicate that AGON is well on his way to jack up 30+ HRs this season.

Kemp is pulling Trumbo. it's a HR or nothing. but since the sample size is so small, it's hard to predict what this all means for Kemp yet.

Uribe has out performed all predictions so far, hope he can continue to play at high level.

Kershaw is throwing again, can't wait for him to return back in full health.

now here comes the hated Giants.

Quite pleased with Haren.

Pleased how he settled down after that 3 run HR and his pitch count in the 70s in the 3rd inning. Just a savvy vet that knew how to work his way through that. turned out to be a good start for us and the pen started to give it up.

Our pen sucked hard today.
and Donnie has been using the hell out of them....and over using Kenley imo....well, i wont blame him for last night's use of him because League forced him to call him in instead of giving him the day off.

Phew~ Beckett gets out of a bases loaded jam in 4th. no runs given up so far.

I don't know if he is as good as he is pitching tonight, or as bad as he pitched the last start, but he sure is walking the tight rope in between.

Neddy · Post #47 » by **Neddy** » Wed Apr 16, 2014 4:13 am

jesus christ. another bases loaded inning at bottom of the 5th. I think Beckett's night is done. only 2 hits given up total but a whopping 5 walks.

Quake Griffin · Post #48 » by **Quake Griffin** » Wed Apr 16, 2014 4:14 am

his fastball has touched 93 tonight.

why have they stayed away from it? it freaked the hell out of Michael Morse.

Neddy · Post #49 » by **Neddy** » Wed Apr 16, 2014 4:21 am

lack of control, it seems.

Neddy · Post #50 » by **Neddy** » Wed Apr 16, 2014 4:22 am

oh god our middle infield defense sucks some big ass donkey balls.

Quake Griffin · Post #51 » by **Quake Griffin** » Wed Apr 16, 2014 4:30 am

yea, they really dropped the ball there.

the whole way hanley gloved that and threw that was awful.

what a dart thrown to 2nd base by Feddy.
and come on Withrow...get this 3rd out...wtf, i lobbied hard for you on here. i hate when relievers walk ppl

Neddy · Post #52 » by **Neddy** » Wed Apr 16, 2014 4:37 am

this is the reason that i think we need to consider a position change very soon for hanley. since Gonzo has shown signs of his suddenly regained power, 1b is now out of question, and with defensive wizard Arruebarruena waiting on deck, SS should be given up for defensive improvements that are sorely needed. Guerrero is trying hard to convert to 2B but with the way things are going with Dee on second, Gordon just might stick. Corey is also there in near future for the 3B once Arruebarruena takes over the SS and i love his defense enough to forgive his lack of batting. Erisbel will be a perennial gold glove at short for the next decade, if given chance. if Hanley is extended, we better trade both or at least one of the two left handed outfielders away, then move Corey to LF. IF Hanley isn't extended, Guerrero needs to learn how to play the 3rd base or LF real quick.

hahaha justin turner with a timely single up the middle, I bet this guy won't hit another clutch hitch hitting RBI for the rest of the season.

Quake Griffin · Post #54 » by **Quake Griffin** » Wed Apr 16, 2014 5:59 am

should have stood up but whatever.

stupid come backer off jansen's foot.
we can score off sergio...come on hanley....you have 2 HRs crushed off him in 2012 (one i saw with my own eyes)

Post #55 » by **Kilroy** » Wed Apr 16, 2014 1:54 pm

Damn... We're going to have to start winning some games against the Giants soon...

SF Fans are about on my last nerve. There's probably a more irritating fan-base...

Quake Griffin · Post #56 » by **Quake Griffin** » Thu Apr 17, 2014 4:13 am

pretty sure Vogelsong just broke Hanley's hand there.

fuuuuuuuuuuuuu!!!!!

Neddy · Post #57 » by **Neddy** » Thu Apr 17, 2014 6:23 am

after we get out in front, by the end of 6th inning or so, Ryu needs to throw on at Posey's head. just make sure it looks "accidental" like Vogelsong's and hit it right on the temple.

Neddy · Post #58 » by **Neddy** » Fri Apr 18, 2014 5:25 am

another strong performance by Ryu today.

other than that 1 aberration of a game, Ryu has been perfect giving up 0 runs in his 4 out of 5 starts.

now we have 2 league leading winning pitchers in Greinke and Ryu, 3 wins a piece.

Quake Griffin · Post #59 » by **Quake Griffin** » Fri Apr 18, 2014 1:01 pm

I'm finally starting to miss Kershaw and I want him back now.

I can't believe we've played the Giants twice and I haven't watched him dominate them.
Oh and my phone and Facebook blows up with EVERY Giant win.

FOH...you jerks have faced Malholm twice...although his 2nd start didn't suck.

things I'd like note after the series:
- Wilson...very shaky. His velocity is back up to 95. Couldn't believe he challenged Posey like that and Posey missed.
- Kenley has been shaky lately. I wish Don would let him have more than one day off.
- Pleased with little Dee.
- Wow at all things Puig....from the article in LA Mag...to the threats and to a lesser extent, the drop ball and throw out at 2nd.

well kershaw has a scheduled bullpen session coming up, looks like he is being released back into this season by the powers to be.

by the way, this is the first game the dodgers came back from being down by 4-0 this season. good to know that our offense can have a rise time to time. now Jansen needs to go out there and shut the door.
