NL West Talk

[The Oldtimer]

Yup. He kind of reminds me of Shawn Green.

Yes he does, come to think of it.

 

[calsnowskier]

Yep and not even 22 years old yet.

So he was born in 1995...

That's 7 years after 1988.

Not sure what 1988 has to do with anything, though. Just a completely random thought....

Even year? Just like last year.

Yeah it was a "completely random thought" because that's the last time the Dodgers won a World Series.

Oh hey, fancy that.

So you are saying it was 7 years before your current stud Star was even born since you last won the Series?

That's kind of a brutal comment to make. And you call yourself a fan?

It's the "brutal truth", the Dodgers havn't won the World Series since 1988. Yes I am a Dodger fan and have been since 1958. I'm no bandwagon fan.

 

[OutlawImmortal]

Cody Bellinger is a beast!

The patience at the plate, the solid defense, the power. Could be the next rookie of the year for the Dodgers after Seager won it just last year.

Pretty crazy when you think about it. The amount of money spent on players in that 30 yrs is probably a lot.

 

[Eugene Baker III]

Finally! My Padres have the Giants right where they want them!

 

[calsnowskier]

Cant defend my Giants. They have totally disappointed so far. But they are riding a HUGE 3-game win streak now...

 

[Kenny]

The Dodgers just can't beat them Giants

 

[OutlawImmortal]

When did the Giants surpass the Padres in the standings? They must really be heating up to be 3 games up on them. The battle for the cellar continues.

 

[wingsauce7]

So when do the Rockies start their annual plummet? Usually they have a forgettable June.

 

[The Oldtimer]

The Dodgers just can't beat them Giants

Does that really matter?

 

[calsnowskier]

Does that really matter?

I know, right?

In the end, the Giants have a better chance for a WS than the dogs.

Heck, the Padres have more WS success than the dogs in most everyone's lifetime experience....

 

[Kenny]

Does that really matter?

Of course it matters. They're your rivals, they're not playing great baseball, and you can't beat them? It's not like we're first place in the NL West either. Sure there's still a lot more games but you're supposed to beat the teams you should beat.

 

[The Oldtimer]

So you are saying that if the Dodgers finish 10/15 games ahead of the Giants at seasons end, that it would matter if the Giants win the season series?

 

[The Oldtimer]

I know, right?

In the end, the Giants have a better chance for a WS than the dogs.

Heck, the Padres have more WS success than the dogs in most everyone's lifetime experience....

So now we are concerned about the last 5/10/15/20/30 years? Are you only 29 years old? That's the last time the Dodgers have won the World Series in your " LIFE TIME".

 

[calsnowskier]

So you are saying that if the Dodgers finish 10/15 games ahead of the Giants at seasons end, that it would matter if the Giants win the season series?

Of course it matters.

Rivalries matter.

 

[The Oldtimer]

Of course it matters.

Rivalries matter.

Not really. The only thing that matters is the NL West standings at the end of the season. Well sometimes the Wildcard matters.
