Watching a little of the game here and a few thoughts:

DLowe is in a zone, pitching as well as anyone in the majors right now.
Russell Martin is an all-star catcher. Definite threat with his speed as well.
Dodgers have a few good players and they do the little things. They will be in it until the end.

Sonnanstine throws meatballs. He's getting knocked around pretty good. His stuff is average at best and he tops out around 88. He'll never be better than mediocre in the majors.
D'Rays commit some dumb mistakes. Not the most fundamentally sound.
Iwamura is a keeper.
Carlos Pena deserves to be in the all-star game this year.
B.J. Upton and Delmon Young are missed.

Same with Suck ass Larry Dinardo, throws nothing special and got knocked out again. Where I can find out what type of throws and speeds a pitcher throws.

Losing Upton was definitely a killer. But Pena has definitely been a pleasant surprise. Gomes has been raking recently too. Rays need to trade one of their OFs for an arm. Already waited too long on Baldelli, but maybe they can still swindle someone.

Iwamura's the fucking man.

Lowe is quietly having one hell of a season. When his sinker is on and he's hitting his spots, the guy is damned near unhittable.

Pierre's also been better of late, and having that kind of speed at the top of the lineup with him and Furcal makes them extremely dangerous. Loney is going to be a factor for them, good or bad.

Lets hope the Dodgers can blow these skeezers out.

I agree Sonny, looks like Dodgers are trying to find a way to lose the fucking game. Let the home team stick around like this and you can take it up the ass before you know it. Got to wonder if the travel will take it's toll coming down the stretch.....

Sweet! Back to back triples to lead off top of 8th. I was hoping a little whining might produce some runs for the Dodgers. Give us 4 or 5 to keep things loose around here.



BTW, speaking of whining, I am petrified of the LAA game tonight, everyone and their mother has them. Seems that's never good when all cappers like the same side.

Patrick, what 10pm games are you on.


All the games I bet have already started, no 10PM starts for me. My plays are always listed in the tracker forum if interested. I did play LAA earlier for a contest and need them to win although I don't have any bucks on them.

Dice K's wild at the moment, has no control what so ever. Thrown to the dirt 5 times in the 1st inning, walked 3 guys.
