My favorite Dodger of this era. A career utility player who worked his ass off and has become one of the better hitters in the game. Damned solid in the field, too. Just wish he'd mix in a bomb every now and then.
Justin also took a discount to stay with the Dodgers. And according to Orel, the wind robbed Turner of 2 HRs last night - overall the Dodgers lost 7 HRs to the wind, according to Orel.
According to Orel, unforseeable shifts in the stars have robbed the Dodgers of championships every year since 88.
not just as a dodger, but in his career so he's off to a great start and his [absence of april] power is actually right on cue...

Ugh. Screw these scrub lineups. Freaking pathetic. No Turner? Why? Just give him Sunday off. Gonzalez hitting 3rd? Grandal hitting cleanup? Utley? PATHETIC! I want a freaking refund
No way..." By the book" doesn't work at all if you don't have " by the book" elements to use...Adrian is not a by the book runner by any stretch. You don't give up a sure inning ending out because the eight hole guy is up. I see it differently...sounds really purposefully dumb to me to send Agon in a pretty much dead as a doornail situation. Makes no sense. Results as you saw.
Two weeks ago I was ready to say Toles needed time in the minors and now I think he's our third best hitter. April baseball is the best/worst. Impossible to really analyze much and probably much better to stick to my mindset of just enjoying whatever happens and wait til mid may for serious thoughts
