    That would be IBB. Nice try :)

    I'd like to see you in the RF pavilion heckling Andre about his contract and then getting a DUI on the way home.

    I apologize.

    I'll be in Saint Diego tomorrow after my 8 am class. I figure the Cardinals losing is our season. Not us winning. So that's basically what I will do. Rooting for the Madres tomorrow night and hopefully some good shit goes down afterwards :)

    I never wanna move from LA/OC but San Diego is an awesome city.

    And Petco is way nicer than these other stadiums that costed 3 times more to build.

    You are going to see Wainwright vs. Volquez, which doesn't look promising for the Padres.

    Go waive white towels in front of Adams face!!!

    You obviously haven't seen the new look Padres have you? Vin made or very clear "this is not the same team the dodgers beat in April" :)

    White towels...duh! No other option. All day.

    LOL, funny someone else told me too, he said he smelled it earlier today...but I didn't smell it here. Nobody but that one kid was talking about it and he believes in mermaids, and alien visitors, so I kinda blew it off. I can't believe an odor could make it all the way here...I'm nowhere near the Salton Sea!

    The breakroom did stink but that's because one of the mexican guys brought some weird ass food from mexico...LOL. Fuckin some weird fish, like shark cunt or something.

    12:00 feels a lot later when you got up at 5 am. Long, weird day. Saw a guy almost kill a pedestrian, running a red light at 60 mph after it had been red for 10 seconds and someone started smoking weed in the school's planetarium this morning lol. Santa Ana is a shitty city. can't wait to get the AA (not that AA Bdk) and transfer out of that place. Night all. Go Dodgers.

    That's the shit I don't like. Can't take the level of retardation our fans express sometimes... Like when we had Manny. ANYTHING his bat made contact with, everyone in the park would scream. Fucking annoying. Learn how to judge a baseball off the bat before you act like what BDK was explaining about the Christmas horse lol.

    Dodgers @ Diamondbacks | Game 1 Preview
    Kennedy looking to regain form against Dodgers
    By Tyler Emerick / MLB.com | 9/9/2012 11:58 PM ET

    It's no secret that D-backs ace Ian Kennedy has fallen off from his career year in 2011.

    A 21-game winner last season, the right-hander is just one victory over .500 with a 12-11 record and an unremarkable 4.39 ERA.

    Perhaps the biggest reason for Kennedy's decline has been his vulnerability to the long ball.

    Allowing just 19 home runs last year, the 27-year-old has surrendered 27 already this season, including 13 in his last nine starts.

    Kennedy will attempt to keep the ball in the park Tuesday, when the D-backs welcome the Dodgers to Chase Field to open up a two-game series between the National League West division rivals.

    "Solo home runs, they're going to happen," Kennedy said. "I wish they didn't, but the two-run homers, especially after they scored one, those are the ones you try to avoid. It's not like I'm going out there trying to not give up homers because it's just going to happen."

    In his last outing, Kennedy allowed five earned runs on seven hits over 5 2/3 innings against the Giants. Despite his sub-par performance, the D-backs ended up capturing the victory over San Francisco.

    While the D-backs know Kennedy will be on the mound for them on Tuesday, the Dodgers still are unsure who will be pitching for them.

    Los Angeles ace Clayton Kershaw was scratched from his start on Sunday because of a sore hip but could pitch Tuesday. If he is unable to go, right-hander Aaron Harang might get bumped up from Wednesday's scheduled start, but Dodgers officials said Sunday they were hopeful Kershaw would start Tuesday.

    Kershaw underwent a contrast MRI, which revealed no structural damage, and tried to make Sunday's start.

    "I felt good enough to pitch today. It wasn't my decision," Kershaw said. "I would have loved to pitch today, yeah. It put Donnie in a tough spot, I understand that. He had to do what he felt was best."

    As for manager Don Mattingly, he said he's thinking about what's best for Kershaw and the Dodgers.

    "I want him to be in the best position to pitch the rest of the year," Mattingly said. "We have 20-something games left. ... This is all about his best chance to be healthy the rest of the way."

    It's hard to believe we're only 1 game out of the WC.

    It really is. As frustrating as the Dodgers have been, the Cardinals have been as bad and the Pirates have been worse. I have a huge feeling the upcoming series ends in a split with neither team really feeling great after it

    We might tie for the 2nd WC, play a playoff/tiebreaker...and then play another vs. the 1st WC. LOL, that'll be epic!

    It's actually possible to have a 3-way tie for the 2nd WC, then you might have to play 2 sudden-death games before reaching the WC game.
