    Thanks bro, It really felt good to get that all out after tonight. It was a long night followed by that cluster fuck of trying to get out of the parking lot and then the hour drive home. I hate where they made me park tonight. I got fucked and shoved into the middle of a huge lot with only 2 one lane exits nowhere near a gate. Assholes! At least they only charged me $10 instead of $15 to get fucked!

    I really like the stadium so much more now inside though. It was as packed as I've seen since the playoffs, and I got some grub and waited in line for 5 minutes! They have food everywhere now! Good job new ownership, love you guys. Too bad your players are such underachieving paper tigers.

    Hey new name idea, your Los Angeles Paper Tigers.

    They said it in Brooklyn, and now in LA.
    "Let Puig do it". The new LAD war cry.
    What a bunch of underachieving turds some of this team is. How many shots did we have at scoring and winning this game did we have? Incredible. We just don't have what it takes, no matter who comes up and plays like a champ.
    Fife pitched rally well, not a bad line in the end at all. I'd like to see him in there as a 4or 5; I think he is easily as good as Capuano and/or Lilly, two guys that we are waiting for to "come through" but have little left, except a good game now and then. You can't flog a dead horse, or I guess you can, but WTF are you going to get out of it? Waiting for Godot, who like these guys, never showed up at all. The staff is too left handed anyway.
    One of the best things DBB has done all year during his normal late inning micro-managing frenzies he so loves, was PH for Ethier with Ramirez, who at least got a hit and prevented the shutout. What a disappointment and waste of time Ethier has worked himself into. Wow...
    Along with Gonzo's periodic K modes, Kemp's questionable career path at this time, a catcher who was pretty good but I guess, unfortunately, has passed away, Crawford's fragility, Ramirez' being rested to a "where is this guy ?" level, the return of Ellis' .230 peak, and the remainder of the lineup like a mouse that didn't even roar, Puig will kill himself single-handidly trying to inspire these drudges to play at some kind of competitive level, with some heart, and a desire to want to win that he has.
    Good luck Yasiel...it's all in your hands now, as you can plainly see.
    Thanks from the bottom of every Dodger fan's heart for trying so hard, and giving us something to get excited about.

    That's really what I'm sick of as well. I understand there have been some injuries and Andre forgot how to hit a baseball, but it's ridiculous. The only guys that ever do anything are Puig, Gonzo, and now Schumaker. Once we get healthy, Don needs to have a hardass mentality that if you don't produce, someone else will. That ninth inning against Kimbrel was awful. I understand he's probably the best in the game now, but he's not superhuman. We send up AAAA Fed-Ex, our terrible backup catcher, and an injured player who already can't hit righties. Sick and tired for waiting around for Puig and Gonzo to do something because no one else will. Then when they don't do anything you're fucked. We need to get healthy fast. Sick of seeing Van Slyke, Fed-Ex, Hernandez, Cruz, etc. all starting. Oh and definitely sick of seeing Magill. Trade for another fucking starter already and stop relying on Capuano and Lilly.

    Puig RF
    Punto SS
    Gonzalez 1B
    Van Slyke LF
    Cruz 3B
    Schumaker CF
    Federowicz C
    M Ellis 2B
    Magill P

    At first I saw the lineup and was happy Don moved Mark to the 8th spot, since his injury looks like it's fucking him. And then I see Luis Cruz hitting 5th. FIFTH. Is Uribe dead? Is Hairston dead? Not only should Cruz not be fucking starting, but hitting 5th? My fucking goodness.

    Also, FedEx better start hitting cause although no one really notices, he's hit way worse than Ramon Hernandez. Man, this lineup pisses me off, destined to fail with Magill on the mound.

    Unbelievable. How can you possibly sit down to write out a lineup, and logically think that putting Cruz in the 5th spot gives you the best chance to win? You honestly can't. That's by far the most absurd thing I've ever seen. Don is a complete fucking joke, and I will be jizzing my fucking pants when he's fired. He's a fucking retard and has no clue how to manage a ball club. I'm still in shock that he actually thinks putting Cruz 5th is a semi-decent idea, unreal.

    It's just terrible. I usually don't care about lineup organization or wtv to be honest, cause sometimes it doesn't make a difference and sometimes we don't know shit behind the scenes. But fucking kidding me. Not only are Hairston/Uribe much better than Cruz, but now you put the worst hitter in the FIFTH spot.

    Don takes one step forward in putting an ailing Mark in the 8th spot, and takes 17 stumbling steps backwards with Cruz hitting 5th. Cruz is literally the worst position player hitter on the fucking team and he hits fifth. I'd rather see Andre Ethier vs. a LOOGY hitting fifth and that's about as bad as it gets.

    Cruz shouldn't be in the majors, much less batting 5th.

    Oh and Hanley is getting an MRI. Hanley and Lilly, just go on DL vacation forever together. Mark will visit you in a few weeks and Crawford in a month.

    Yep bro, those are the exact 3 I was thinking of.
    Then sometimes when we get to see our prized SS make a cameo appearance like Stan Lee in a Marvel Comics based movie.
    Right now Gonzo is in a little slump, so it's never more than 3 total.

    You guys don't know shit...Cruz is 2-3 against Minor with a fucking bomb! That's like a .667BA!

    You guys are morons!
    I wonder if I can somehow mix Don's face into my Obama/Bush face?
