DODGERS: The Spring Training Thread

Matty signed my jersey today; probably the only good thing about going to the game today. Lol. Except he signed on the number in black sharpie so it's hard to see :/

 

Picture or it didn't happen

 

^^

 

Damn thats dope! If he signed it with a silver sharpie, I probably would have stole it from you.. But seriously, lucky you!

 

Idk if I should trace over it in silver or what... Because I already have a signed Andre jersey hanging on my wall and it would be stupid to hang a Kemp jersey that you can't see the autograph.

 

I feel like that would ruin the autograph, gotta keep it as it was originally even if it isn't entirely visible.

So awesome though.

 

I really like what I'm seeing out of Dee and Dre.

12-35 (.343) with 8 runs, 4:3 walks:k's, 6-7 SB. triple slash .343/.425/.429 for Dee
11-25 (.440) with 6 doubles! 2 triples 2 homeruns and 9 RBI. .440/.483/1.080 for dre

Castellanos and Sellers have also had a great spring...man i just cant wait for the season to start!

 

i dont want to get to hight or low with spring, but it is nice to see Castellanos leaving an impression on the club. if Ellis gets hurt, he might get the call

Dee definitely looks like he knows what he's doing. hopefully he can keep it up
and it's nice to know that Andre is 100%. last year if we had 1 more freaking bat, who knows if we fight to the end of the season like SF? Ethier could be that bat this year. would be great to have a serious 3/4

 

Billingsley is such an X factor this year.

 

Feels like that every year.

 

It really does add up. Started sucking dick the second half of 09....

 

Bills was really good in 2010
hopefully last year was just a fluke. and even so, he had his moments last year where he was nails

 

I'd say he was 'pretty' good in '10. Nothing close to bad anyway. But in the second half of 09 he went from all star to barely making the playoff roster.

Maybe I give Bills too much credit thinking he is underachieving. Maybe he is truly destined to be a solid #3.

 

advanced metrics had his really good that year
top 10 WAR pitchers in 2010
Doc, Ubaldo, Josh Johnson, Wain, Lince, Kershaw, Oswalt, Gallardo, Bills. in that order

but i know what you mean. i dont care about 2009 though because he bounced back in 2010. last year was just weird. i feel good about him for this season though

 

I get more and more mad every time I think about us letting Kuroda walk.

 

Solid #3's don't get paid $10MM a season. The dude needs to step up or get out of this organization.

 

Are you kidding? #5s get paid 10 million a year with Ned running around.

 

Well yeah... But he's biologically retarded. Lol.
