    Greinke will always get a pass from me because he grew up a Dodgers fan. Plus, he's a badass.

    dude...I don't think he is bashing Grienke...he's bashing his contract.

    "Dude"??
    I know you're new but Ford has been around the game for a long time (umpiring tee ball games)
    That's "Sir" to you!

    :p

    Grienke has a 90 NTS (not taking shit) rating. He's up there with Jeff Weaver for putting fuckwits who mess with the Dodgers in their place. Besides, wins for a pitcher is the most important SABR stat there is, and his win % is awesome.

    Exactly...WTF does it matter what this guy posts? All the psychobabble about him gives him creedence..just let the asshole post his stupid shit and ignore him. He's Papelbon with a PC of sorts...insignificant and desperate.
    Isn't Jeffy the name of the guy who had all those little girls pregnant...the polygamist cretin?
    And although we think he's a finook, he's entitled to his opinion.
    Just fuck him.
    Jesus.

    As he does me every time he lets the ball go from his hand to home. I sort of squint to make the results less damaging.
    But sometimes, inexplicably, the guy rocks. But Cap in Coors could be well...you know.
    However, if he's not on a Greinke level, y'know 105 pitches and 7 walks. 5 ER by the 5th inning, and keeps a "cap" on it (pun fun), the O can keep us in it.

    A lot of people will tell you wins are a worthless pitcher stat and I agree to a certain degree but like NZ said, dude has a set on him and you can't measure Zito or his contract up to that.

    0-5, 5.19 ERA, 43.1 IP

    Those are the numbers of the guy you said would be our second best pitcher, at least Greinke's career isn't in jeopardy ;)

    The comparison of Grienke and Zito makes me want to projectile vomit. No no no

    Two other things:

    1. Juan Uribe is the fucking man this year
    2. Hanley is hitting over .400

    Why haven't they move RYU back to that 3rd spot? We've had off days to correct for that doubleheader. Old timers pitched with 3-4 man rotations they could do it.

    The only think that bugs me about BLF's absurd Greinke-Zito comparison is the fact that he didn't spell it like "BKITCHES!!!!!!"

    I think I literally repressed memory of Adam Kennedy being a Dodger. Completely forgot that. Now I just remembered Aaron Miles who was easily my least favorite Dodger in history.
