The worst news. Not unexpected but a deep cut.
Vin Scully has passed during the Giants game. I'm without words.
God bless the Scully family.

A nice tribute to The Man. The voice of the Dodgers my whole life. Dodgers need to dedicate this season to him and win the World Series in his honor. They're definitely doing their part so far. 74-33 for the best record in the league.

Go Dodgers!!

They just plug new guys in and win. And they're getting some pitchers back. This could be their year (again) unless they are peaking too early.

Dodgers are definitely making the playoffs. Almost a sure thing as a division winner. Possible home field throughout. October is a different season though. Playoff baseball is not the same. Ask the Mariners whose 116 game season ended in a playoff sweep by the Yankees. Or the Giants whose 107 win season ended in 5 games by the Dodgers.

You need hitters to hit when needed and starters to give quality inning. And a bullpen who can hold leads or keep it close. Do the Dodgers have all of that? The bullpen is the only thing that would concern me. I'm not convinced Kimbrel is a reliable closer.

Hopefully Treinen and Graterol can return and pitch well. That would go a long way to strengthening the bullpen. They'll need a healthy Walker Buehler too. And a healthy Kershaw.

These Dodgers are assassins.

Best to be hot in October but these guys can win when they're cold. They are loaded.

Rams and Dodgers are juggernauts. Lakers will find their way back. 🤞

UPDATE:

Still assassins!!
85 v 37. No contest.. Right now.
Stay hot, , its best to be 'hot' in October.
Losing Buehler reallu sucks. He's as good as gone. But the other pitchers! Gonsolin, Urias, Anderson, and they're getting Kershaw & May back. Who am I forgetting??

The bats are on fire too. 3 of the 6 (11) game winners are Dodgers. Along with new guys like Gallo, Thompson, Anderson they just keep injecting talent.
The 9th batter in the line up is a stud. Who needs a DH

Dig this ship while it sails.

The good news is the Guggenheim investors, 32, the old farm system still producing and Dave f'n Roberts.
We are so blessed to be LA sports fans these days.
The LA Rams are really wealthy and well run.
The LA Dodgers are really wealthy and well run .
(call me in a year about them Lakers)

B Teams
Clips. Solid and might FINALLY have their whole team healthy-ish.
Angels are always cool. They just aren't the Dodgers. Especially the last decade. (We have fam connects in the CA Angels F-O)..

I grew up on the beach. In the water. So ice skates didn't compute. But we gave 2 good hockey teams too.

Don't suck cheering for LA sports.

And don't get me started on the college stuff. lol

Just to let you guys know,

I'm a diehard Mets fan,

What a game played last night, sold out!!!

deGrominator against those tough Dodgers lineup.

I had to watch it twice, especially on the Mets network online,

Because they had it blacked out on my MLB.tv,

had to wait until the game was over to watch it on replay.

and I could only watch it live at first from the Dodgers network.

and they cut out the live performance of Timmy Trumpet for Edwin Diaz,

his walk on song, Narco.

Here are the highlights if any wants to see it from the Mets tv cast.




Nimmo robbed Turner!!!

Torpedoed our whole season and fucked our pitchers up and we had no pitching and had to rely on Lance Fucking Lynn


Add that to Trevor Bauer having a money schemer lie on him and Dodgers releasing him when he did nothing and you get the Dodgers getting bounced again in the NLDS.


Agreed about the overall pitching, but CK can only get one out?
Also just as bad, what happened to the hitting. Betts and Freeman were complete no shows AGAIN. Scoring 6 runs in 3 games? Sheesh At least the Braves vomited over themselves too.
