I would argue that him having a history of getting injured every year he's been in the majors since 2009 is what killed him Yep. If the revisionist history becomes "oh, well the Dodgers broke him" it's going to be annoying. This guy had giant, blood-red flags all over his career and Theo should've let someone else give him $20M to rehab for 2 years.

Don't know about that. He's had some comments about statistics and stuff that the old school guys surely love. Plus he's white so the enthusiasm is perfectly ok with the old schoolers. He's half-Hispanic, although white-passing, I guess. (Cue the "Hispanic is not a race" flame war)

No point in review if wrong calls are going to stay wrong.

That Javy single was pure karma. Dickerson with the cheesiest effort to draw a call I've seen in a while

DFA this stupid [expletive] and kick Joe in the ass for letting this horsefeathers face a righty. horsefeathering Christ

I don't understand why a guy who can strike people out so easily also gives up so damn many home runs

I did not think that one was going to get out

artist rendition of the brandon morrow era: I have no idea who we might have used that $10M on, but I'm gonna be pissed about that signing probably forever.

We're back for 2019! Two things to note for those playing the home game: - The ACC Network designation in past years was a syndicated group of local stations. In case you've missed the 8 million commercials for it, it's now a full-blown network available on most (but not all, yet) services. - For space/time reasons, I'll continue to limit the 'nationally available' listings to games you can get included with most cable/streaming subscriptions, so nothing there from ESPN+ (which costs extra). ESPN App (formerly listed as ESPN3) games will be listed. - All times Eastern, just because that's how they appear on the tickers.

Besides, this season from hell is clearly ending with STL lucking into another BS title, so LA is gonna go at least another year without one

I'm totality I'd rather be us than the Dodgers too. It's hard to get to the Series at all, and if they do they probably have to beat a death machine Astros or Yankees team. Meanwhile we have 1 in hand and still the theoretical chance to get more soon. That doesn't mean the Ricketts and Theo haven't fucked this up since 16.

I can't make another bench roster move in the HR Derby for like 3 more weeks because I just made one. RIP my team.

I might need a few days break. Watching these horsefeathering gutless choking dogs find every horsefeathering possible way to lose games is really starting to wear on me. I've never come close to disliking a theoretical playoff team more in my life and I once rooted for a sub-.500 NFL division champion.

It's real. They basically asked Benetti who he'd like to work with and he suggested Walton.

So ridiculous how badly we are pissing away the best run of pitching Darvish is likely to have as a Cub

Strop gave up a couple grounders that literally every guy who can play 2B on this team except Happ probably gets to. Hard time blaming him too much. Bote's error swung the game.

If that was us, there's like a negative 85 percent chance our guy gets a big hit, at least it feels like it

Might be time to just fold up the tents.

Milwaukee would've had 6 outs by now - UMFan

Get barfing Javy out there right horsefeathering now, this is absurd

Darvish is a [expletive] man

It's really sad that Javy being benched might have improved the lineup just because it got Almora to the 9 spot

Even the producers are sick of this crap

Welp should be interesting to see if we can rally from a couple games back when we return home
