    Joc seeing a lot of pitches should also help in his bid to stay in the leadoff spot.

    I can't believe the month Adrian is having. I'm going off my memory and not anything concrete but it seems like he's usually not the guy to go on a crazy hot streak, kinda just does enough throughout the year usually. It's been awesome.

    He had a great April last year and then slumped until about July. I remember at one point last year his OBP was like .320 or .330. Hopefully he keeps it up.

    I wish Fangraphs had an app so I could check the leaderboards on my phone much easier.

    Nice explosion by the offense and Greinke is a total badass. Hopefully he remains a Dodger for many years

    not sure
    i know we led the nl in '77 with 191 when garv, reggie, dusty and the penguin all hit 30+
    but two al teams hit more -- should be an asterisk though due to the dh

    Not panic, I don't think, for me anyway. But very disappointing that CK had a complete game happening, for sure. And his "wall of meatballs" he seems to hit each game for an inning (or two) is killing him.
    He usually throws a ton of pitches, but this game was efficient as I've seen from him, ever I think, even the no-no, and then , on a dime, turned to shit. Maybe there is somethin to the AJ catching him thing, but IDK really if it makes a difference...you certainly can't blame those two batting practice pitches he threw to Lind and Parra (the little filthy scumbag) on Grandal.

    I don't know if anyone really doesn't want to keep Zack, I think they are just intrigued by the other options.

    IMO, wanting to not keep Zack is just over thinking it. The guy has been money since we signed him - it's not just the start of this season. I've wanted to keep him. We need to keep him. With our current 1-2 punch, no one can match up with us in the 2nd game of a playoff series... having Clayton Kershaw as our number 2? That's just ridiculous.

    I don't see Joc being moved from the leadoff spot anytime soon. I actually can't wait for Puig to return to the 2 spot...

    Joc
    Puig
    AGon
    Kendrick
    Seager
    Guerrero
    Ethier
    Grandal
    Greinke

    Was looking at how Grandal was doing compared to other catchers this early and man, I'm so happy the Dodgers were able to land a catcher at his age cause the state of catchers is very bad and not easy to get another one.

    After a slump, Grandal is in the top 4 in most offensive categories for qualified catchers. Has a .790 OPS which isn't elite by itself but for a catcher that's gonna be way above average. Hope he can keep it up
