Go Dodger Blue! Diehard fan since the Garvey-Cey-Lopes-Russell years.

Damn!!
Let's keep the Yaisel Puig hype train running full steam. Dude is crushing the ball this spring. Let's get Andre Eithier on the trading blocks right now. Hey Ned, get the Yankees on the line right now.

He's going to AA. In addition Gordon is headed to New Mexico

Kershaw is the man. Not only did he throw a 9 inning shutout to beat the Giants today, he also hit a solo home run in the 8th to go up 1-0. Go Dodgers.
Good Win! the opening pitch ceremony was a little hokey, but it was great to see Sandy Koufax throw out the first pitch - even though he bounced it :)
Free Puig.

Can't leave 11 stranded and expect to win.
One less starting pitcher, but why a catcher

The Dodgers have nobody behind AJ Ellis. It is a huge drop off when he needs days off and he will need a couple a week.
damn, damn, damn
Grenke breaks collarbone

I thought nobody got hurt in baseball brawls :D
Maybe the Harang trade was a bit early?
Question for IPU, if you're monitoring this thread: even though it was a 1-run game, do you think Greinke intentionally threw at Quentin - keep in mind that San Diego sent one at Kemp's head earlier in the game.
A Dodger fan is trying to tell me there's no way the Dodgers would intentionally throw at a guy, putting him on base with no outs in the 6th inning of a one-run game. I think protecting your batters goes beyond the score, and that they likely had enough confidence in their ability to get out of the inning without any damage even if they put Quentin on base.
Any other actual baseball players on the board have an opinion?
Dan Patrick said today that a player who charges the mound should have an automatic 5-game suspension. I agree. What do you all think?
I don't think Greinke's pitch was intentional. The circumstances are extremely suspect for an intentional hit. Carlos Quinton should get a very long suspension for his actions. This isn't hockey, fighting is not a part of the sport and it should be punished harshly.
The situation in the game give it context, especially it being a 3-2 count. Players know when to pick their spots and this is not a situation where a player would pick his spot.
Plus, Quinton gets hit a lot, it is part of his game to get hit by pitches. When you are purposefully trying to get hit, it seems pretty ridiculous to react like this.
Quentin was hit 17 times last year. He leans into pitches and never tries to get out of the way. He didn't lean into last nights pitch, he definitely didn't make an attempt to get out of the way. I hope Carlos gets a fastball to the face from Josh Beckett in the near future. It won't be next week. I have a hard time seeing Quentin playing at the Ravine during next weeks series.

Well this season is off to a great start. 15 games in and the Dodgers are under .500. Dodgers just dropped 3 in a row to the Padres. The Padres that are 5-10 on the season and 4 of those 5 wins happened to be against the Dodgers.
I am jumping the gun with my desire to find a replacement for Donny baseball? I am going to throw in Ned Colletti in the bag to be fired as well. I will forever hate Ned. I wasn't a fan of the Mattingly hire to begin with.
Kershaw fans 12, Crawford knocks 2 homers to put Dodgers over Brewers, 2-0.
Mattingly has to be on the hot seat. Last place, 5 games under .500, highest payroll in baseball, 2nd to last in runs scored.
If I'm Mattingly, I put my house up for sale, I don't think he's around till the all-star break.
