    What does it matter who's starting when as long as Zack and Clayton start in the series? Matchups would be great sure, but doesn't change much at all.

    I'd love to sweep this series and start the second half with a bang. Let's go Dodgers!

    Gonna be a tough series but I'm so fuckin glad I get to watch two Dodger games in a row on the television.

    Haven't been able to do that since 2013.

    See: Bill Singer, Fernando Valenzuela, Sandy Koufax, Mike Marshall, Orel Hershiser, Proctor, etc., etc. throughout Dodger history...they are well known for it.
    They tried to do it to Don Sutton, but he had a genuine hose for an arm, and got out for more with someone else. Double D in some ways, too.

    I can only assume you weren't aware of the hype and discussions about the great plan to separate them, so the BP wouldn't be stretched out so badly, since the back three are about 5/6 innings pitchers. The concept was to at least save some relief appearances is they stagger started.
    That's the difference it was supposed to make. It's so not about matchups at all...

    I watched first half highlights to get me pumped again for second half. Damn, they had a lot of cool comebacks so far and man has the first half just flown by. Wasn't it just spring training

    Nothing new. I'm sure he sees it as a bullpen game anyways. He's a terrible manager. They win in the regular season despite him. His faults kill the team in the playoffs.

    I forgot how I started, i think Dodgers.com has a video highlight reel of some of the big moments in the first half then I just went clicking through shit, went through Van Slykes walk-off, Guerrero's grand slam, Adrian's 3 home run night, and that crazy extra inning game against the Padres
