Chris Capuano only allowed one run in seven innings in his start against the Reds in July. That's not chump change statistics.
yes, more than once he this season he pitched a good gameChris Capuano only allowed one run in seven innings in his start against the Reds in July. That's not chump change statistics.
yes, more than once he this season he pitched a good game
after all, he is 4 & 7, despite his 4.34 ERA putting him at a career record 10 games below .500 & 4.28 ERA
yet in spite of those numbers, I do want him on the playoff roster because he is a lefty who can go long and sometimes pitches OK
the one guy I know for sure who does not belong on the playoff pitching roster is Brandon League
should Mattingly put him on just because he was good in the past rather than someone deserving like:
Fife who can pitch long
or
Withrow who seems lucky
or my choice for League's spot
Mármol who has really improved since coming over to the Dodgers and I know Honeycutt has been singing his praises
basically, if Mattingly does not listen to him(Honeycutt) about what pitchers to take to the playoffs, I have very low hopes as to any positive outcomes
Mattingly simply knows 0 about managing pitchers, he has shown that time and time again, the Dodgers still have good pitching in spite of him, cerntainly not because of him...
actually, I do like our chances in the first round vs the Braves, even with no Kemp and possibly no Either*We can be cold and trump hotlanta.

after that, who knows but it sure would be nice not to face the Cards
*=here hoping he can at least pinch hit & start by the 2nd round
it has been 25 years I remember, I was 15, went with my dad to "Game 1" in 88Okay Robby, here's the deal. My grandpa is pushing 90. HUGE Dodger fan, used to take my dad to the Coliseum to see them. THen my dad got all punk and started rooting for the Angels when he moved to Orange County ("Because it's cleaner and safer down here, Aim.") but my grandpa stayed true to the ghetto. He's more of a Lakers fan and could give a shit about the Kings, but he'd LOVE a Dodger win before he kicks it and goddamit, I want to give him one. (Not that I have anything to do with them winning, I'm just talking drunk. Lol.) I might go watch the first playoff game with him come to think of it...
OMG scandalous he's drinking his grand daughter! No but srsly, Orville deserves a win.

I consider it one of the happiest memories of my life so yeah, here's hoping they win one b4 ur gramps kicks it or
he does...
Problem solved, bitches!!!!!!!!!!!!! I was hoping they'd sweep the Braves...now not so much.
well, maybe you got tix to the series clencher
but there is less a chance of that since they gave 1 to the Braves today , stranding all those baserunners*
still, they can win the next 2 at home and save "The Kersh" for Game 1 of the NLCS hopefully
rather than wasting him on having to beat the Braves in 5
*=14 baserunners, only 3 of which scored and 1 by HR! 21% won't get it done
I pray that this game is just an anomaly, too many times have I seen my Dodgers get baserunners and throw them away
yeah, Dusty deserved better than that I am sure he will get at least one more chance at managing a team if he wantsIt's a travesty the Reds fired Dusty Baker. In the twelve years, before Dusty became manager, the Reds didn't make the playoffs once. Not once. In ten of those twelve years the team had a losing record. Dusty became the Reds manager in 2008. He guided the team to the playoffs in three of those six years. True, they didn't win any of the playoff series they participated in but he still should get a lot of credit for turning the Reds' fortunes around. It's a damn shame if you ask me.
