Uh Oh Scuds!

Nice to have a couple pitchers doing their job. Hasn't been happening enough the last couple weeks. I don't know why. As a whole, they just don't have enough desire. They have enough to tie for the division lead ,but then they seem to start playing poorly again.

Scuds, has to be a bit fustrating. On the same day that they lose Nomar again, the Halos pick up Texieria for not a whole hell of alot. That division is wide open, even the Rockies are back in contention. So are the Dodgers going to make any moves?

Losing Nomar is a positive move

Why? He was hitting a lot better than Berroa.

Playing him at SS is like playing a man short in the field. And it wasnt like he was really hitting well. And you didnt really expect him to stay healthy did you?

They won 2-0 lastnight. So, they still are a poor offensive team. They were behind by 7 runs Monday Night, and battled back for six runs, and then stopped. They couldn't get the tieing run. That's what I mean. They lack late game hitting. Blake has been a difference maker though. Garciaparra was hitting well since coming back from the last injury. I don't know the numbers, but I know he was seeing the ball well,and hitting pitches flush. You're right about him being a poor defensive player right now. Since we struggle more on offense than on defense, I wish he was in the line-up.I don't know what thenew injury is. I did see the play though, and it looked so minor. I can't believe he got hurt from that lil play(actually, it is unfknbelievable.)

I guess people don't remember when I was on here begging them to not pay NOMar 20 MIL over 2 years. For some reason, others thought he wouldn't get hurt. This from a guy with a crippled hip during the 2006 playoff series.

Been frustrating to see Kuroda pitch so poorly. Pitched well For the 1st 2 starts after being on the D.L., but since then, very poor.
