Brian Wilson activated, Scott Van Slyke optioned to AAA Albuquerque

2 out rally started by the pitcher, fucking garbage, 2-0 Marlins, Top 4

Puig was just walking away after the 3rd strike and never said a word. Hirschback started that whole thing. Once again an Ump escalating a situation.

Yep, Hirschbeck instantly took off his mask and started chirping at Puig, but Puig needs to chill, this kid is way out there sometimes, needs to reign it in

BTW- Hirchbeck's strike zone is pathetic

Thanks for starting the game thread! Now we tied it up and the batters look like theyre adjusting to Fernandez and laying off bad pitches...

Dodgers had an excellent chance to rid themselves of Carlos Marmol when they activated Brian Wilson, but instead, removed a RH bat from the team by optioning Van Slyke. I can't figure out why the Dodgers are so mesmerized by Marmol.

Dodgers need to win tonight because Capuano is pitching tomorrow.

 

[besaesa]

God not Crapuano going tomorrow. Time to get the liquor out for tomorrow and hope az loses tonight. Were only down 3-2 so we have a shot if our bats can wake up

Van Slyke has options and likely wouldn't be playing much this week anyways, alot of righties pitching

 

[LASports96]

Well folks that's what we call getting scrubbed to death

Onto tomorrow, it's all good

 

[Silas]

Dodgers lose two straight for the first time in a couple of months. That's part of the wonder of baseball......things will eventually turn.

But, with the Dodgers pitching (with the exception of Capuano) We shouldn't see any prolonged losing streaks.

Juan Uribe continues to audition for his next contract.

Arizona lost, so lead sits at 7.5 games.

 

[besaesa]

The good thing is that AZ lost but now we have to hope for good Cappy tomorrow or it will be a long day tomorrow...

 

[LASports96]

Cappy could do well against this shitty offense, wouldn't be surprised he throws a good game, we'll see

 

[besaesa]

I hope youre right but im nervous with him facing Stanton lol

 

[OutlawImmortal]

You know things are going well when back to back losses are being called a positive. Thought Hanley sent one out early in the game. We all got to lose sometime, and we all knew Ryu's home vs away numbers were drastically different. We were due.

Stanton's an absolute beast, seems like every series against the Dodgers he hits a homer. Him and CarGo.

 

[LASports96]

Perhaps even losing a few games is a good thing, tests adversity, I mean I don't wanna lose..

Sorry, didn't mean to sound opposed to the notion, I agree with it. I was just simply admiring how the Dodgers have played during this streak.

 

[besaesa]

Gee thanks Crappy. After you get 4 runs you implode and give up at least 2 runs smh

 

[Silas]

I have a feeling we'll see Wilson tonight. Capuano needs to be replaced via trade or with Fife. At least Fife keeps the Dodgers in games.

Need to win tonight so we have a shot at taking 3 of 4 from Miami,.

 

[besaesa]

Fife needs to be the fifth starter. How do you give up runs after being given that lead? Freaking Crappy
