    @billplunkettocr
    #Dodgers Tony Gonsolin had elbow surgery today. Andrew Friedman described it as a Tommy John revision with flexor cleanup. But not full TJ so recovery time is expected to be 8-10 months.

    Glad they waited as long as possible...makes perfect sense.
    And don't forget, we have Ohtani pitching.for 4 innings now...even though whoever relieves him gets hammered...game after game.
    But he's a unicorn, they say. Problem is, we have mostly three-toed sloths for the rest of the lineup.
    And a dodo managing.

    and little general davey has no clue what to do when the shit hits the fan
    he can't recline in the dugout anymore unless they allow him a chair that goes fully flat so he can lean on one elbow and observe the game more passively
    mixing it up and trying something different to shake it up escapes him since he's just following orders and analytics
    faceless and dull without an original thought and DEI carte blanche he can do no wrong
    throws his players under the bus in the press and calls it managing and no one dare criticize him and his "style"
    this joke of a leader has been exposed for all to see but the king has no clothes must not be uttered as the season careens off the rails
    always an excuse for that fool

    that’s what i hate most about him
    let’s the ship guide itself when everything is going well (and takes full credit)
    but has no fucken idea what to do when things go awry (and then dumps on the players through the media)
    a leader???…
    what a cowardly useless piece of shyte

    USA too.
    The Kaiser has always been permanent.
    Because enough people want to be stars too.
    But then even the Kaiser rolls.

    but he isnt the king
    he is there for you to yell at him
    he is doing his job
    taking aggro for the ruling elite
    do you know the history of baseball clowning
    i have a book on it if you would like to read about it
    its a long tradition

    thats the white collared black mans job
    to be a mascot and a buffer between the fans and the fanned
    a high level mix of clown/mascot/guard
    hence why he is so good at standing on the porch
    watching the game go by as directed
    like a scarecrow
    or a cloned trooper


    lets see how much longer he stays on the porch
    working for the kaiser and all the stars in 'heaven'

    Hope so, but they've put together a run with a lineup that - to quote our fave PR - DGAF.

    Never fails. Feckin Frisco does anything (outside of bathhouses where they do EVERYTHING [right @irish ]) and planet fake news just HAS to make a bigger deal of it than it is.

    Case in point: Jung Hoo Lee makes a circus catch...

    https://youtube.com/shorts/ZLoyrp8UL0I?si=U8igBZ3NyoEfV2y3

    OK. Impressive. Freakish. Dumb luck. Great.

    But catch of the decade? How about a catch that turned a game around? A game that mattered? In October....



    Or a few others by a better man than Lee...

    Lee is younger & Taylor is about done ... but he was nails with a glove for sure.
