Three strikes (we out.)

1)Andruw signing a disaster(easiest prediction I ever made.)

2)Furcal's back getting tight as a virgin in da winter(why God pissin' on the Blue?)

3)Having to ask a woman(Broxton) to act as the executioner.

General manager Ned Colletti said it is difficult to replace a closer.

"As far as trading for a closer, it's a lot like trying to acquire a shortstop -- it's a premium position and most teams don't carry an excess," Colletti said from the All-Star Game in New York.

Even Colletti knows he can't be confident in the young lady closing games out.

If he can keep the guys off the bases, then he is pretty tough. When they get on, the breaking ball gets high, and breaks down into the center of the plate. Tonite it started middle, and broke beautifully down to the ground(wicked.) God gives fatboys talent, cuz he knows they need the extra money to buy their feed.....Kuroda was awful. Wasn't very good in his last start, either. He came off the D.L. with 2 awesome starts, and now he can't seem to get control of his location. Too bad they can't hit like this day in day out. As soon as they face a good pitching team(like Atlanta) it fcks them up for a full week. They go into a hitting slump. Lost 3 in a row to Florida (after Atlanta left.) That JUERGENS MUTHA FKR is what started it. They are his bitches. They don't come out of it for 3-4 games after he kicks their butt.

They ain't hitting Haren. I knew they would lay down like that. It's one thing to hit a cancer patient who is struggling with his control, but, soon as they have to hit against somebody decent, they are women versus men.

Default Dan Haren

Haren is going to win the C.Y. in one of the next 2-3 years.

He's from West Covina, CA and thus born from the same dirt that gave us the Giambi brothers..... and the aviator Cory Lidle.

The Dodgers inquired about Beltre from Seattle, but Beltre has limited no trade clause. The Dodgers are listed as one of those teams in the no trade. Some hard feelings there?

Playing hard to get. Give dat Latin Blood a couple days to cool. Fans want him back. Never wanted him gone. He could wave it. Maybe some other contender is talking to him, cuz he couldn't wan't to stay up there.

The no trade clause is more a product of Boras then Beltre i think. Ever since his first season flop in SEA Adrian has insinuated that leaving LA might have been a mistake and even made comments last year that he would like to come back.

Boras and Colletti dont exactly have the greatest of relationships since the JD Drew surprise, so i dont know if that will factor into the thoughts on bringing him back. However, I think Colletti is gone at the end of the year anyway with Cashman taking his place.

How about that beast Broxton......

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

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.
