No - they give you the free games. And it's a joyous victory for those of us who are at war with Cox cable out here in the blackout zone.
I actually misspoke. We're 27th in SLG not wOBA. We're 16th in wOBA. Pretty much, we're getting on base as much as anyone, but not hitting enough extra base hits and home runs. Seems like Hanley Ramirez will be a pretty good remedy as a good SLG player who's hasn't really been known for his OBP skills over the past few years.
last week vin brought up the stat that pretty much supports yours and our eye tests. near the top in batting average with nobody on base. pretty much last when somebody was on.
He finally switches Gonzo into the 3 spot, we play the best offensive game of the season. The next game, Kemp is back to hitting 3rd. Don is getting really easy to hate.
It's true....sometimes , they are positively surreal in how they pull them out. I've shaken my head after their Ws ,more than a few times already this season. I've seen the Yankees do very similar for years and years, they are never really out of it....and extraordinary luck has much to do with it. Also, the opponents seem to fall apart and make mistakes in late innings to accomodate them, and they know how to go in for the kill. Coaching, top to bottom. A very good GM (now). The cocksuckers. The filthy, executing cocksuckers.
^Bochy is the MLB equivalent of Greg Popovich but I digress. If Lily sucks what next????? We need a groundswell of support for the call-up of one Zach Lee!
HOLY SHIT GUYS!! I was at my doctors office in LA and I'm in the elevator and two guys are sort of power walking to catch the lift. I don't really get a good look at them but once they're in the lift I look at one of them and think "this fucking guy looks like Scott Boras." Then they start talking about "Man its different being out in LA coming from NY." And then I remember my medical center has a lot of clients from the Dodgers, Lakers, and Kings. So I look at the other guy and its Chad fucking Billingsley!! Hahaha He looked a bit different with a pretty shaggy beard and I was like, "Are you Chad Billingsley from the Dodgers?" And he was like " Yes I am, are you a fan?" And of course I was thinking in my head, HOLY SHIT! And I just responded with "Yeah man I'm a big fan of the team." I don't know why he was there but I'm assuming it has to do with his elbow. Probably getting it looked at or x-rayed or something. Man it was pretty cool to see him though
