Everyone go to MLB.com and look for the ad on the side to vote for All-Stars. One you fill out the whole ballot, you submit it and then you can resubmit with one click 35 more times. Vote for anyone/everyone but the Giants!

Whatever happened to the "One man, One vote rule"?

That went out with Women's Suffrage.

Doesn't matter. Just vote against the Giants!

Giants lose 4-0 to Toronto in a day game! Scutaro, Poser and Sandofat go a combined 1-10. Even better!

It's nice to see the Dodgers winning some games and staying alive in the NL West. Puig is, of course, unbelievable, but the Dodgers still have some concerns. Hanley Ramirez is still having trouble with his hamstring, and there is no telling when Kemp and Crawford will be back. Two spots in the rotation are in disarray, and you have to hold your breath when a reliever comes in.

But, the Dodgers are hanging in there. Hopefully the chewing gum and baling wire will hold up for now.

At least they are showing that a win is possible. Stick another piece of gum in and lets crew up some more wins.

Matt McGill definitely needs to remain in the Minors for the duration of this season. He is clearly not ready for prime time.

Another nice outing for Mr. Puig! Still many problems to work on and I think the Dodgers will make some moves to start gearing up for, not only the rest of this season, but next season as well.

It seems like each time through the Rotation we are winning about 2 of every 5 games, so we sure could use a quality 4th Starter at least. At the rate we're going, we will not make the playoffs this year.

Luis Cruz needs to be replaced, a new 2B needs to be signed for next year (Robinson Cano?), and the Dodgers need to think about SS in 2015. I'd also be on the lookout for a catcher in the future; not to mention a bona fide 3B.

So, there are holes to fill. The pitching depth at the minor league level seems to be restored, so in 2-3 seasons we might see a couple of gems make their way to the big club.

With all the problems, we have a lot of promise going forward. I'm sure it will be worth the wait.

Matt Magill has been optioned back to AAA to make room for Justin Sellers. He can't be recalled for at least 10 days. That begs the question of who will pitch for the Dodgers in Pittsburgh on Saturday. Will Capuano be back by then? Or, could the Dodgers be planning a call up of Zach Lee?

 

[HammerDown]

If I were Ned, I absolutely would not bring Capuano back. It's time to rely on Zach Lee a little.

Looking forward to tonight's game and hoping you guys can beat up on the D'backs. The whole division is going for you tonight.

 

[Silas]

I don't believe Capuano is eligible to come off the DL until the 19th, so it won't be him, either. If the Dodgers have an off day they won't need another Starter. Maybe Puig can pitch!!:rollseyes:

 

[Old1949]

Kershaw Monday, Greinke Tuesday, Ryu Wednesday, off Thursday, Fife Friday, ??? Saturday. Maybe it will be Schumaker.

Allot of NL West fans are Dodgers fans for this series.

Dodgers lost to another sucky no name minor league pitcher named "Minor" yesterday. I would say they are already done like last year. They can't hit no name Dback pitchers like Coburn either.

I'm going to miss that if he retires after this year.
