Blah blah Red Sox whatever. Will A-Rod be a Dodger?

I will have to admit that I am not keeping up on the day-to-day as much as I have, but as I was listening to the post-game, there was a lot of discussion about how the Dodger pitching was starting to get into the groove and how the Dodgers were really starting to gel as a "team."

Yes, a groove where the in the 3 game series with the Giants, the starting pitchers in the two games that they WON went a total of 9 innings. Relievers pitched 11 of the 26 innings.

The starting pitchers are doing better in the innings that they're in there, but they just don't have anyone that's been able to consistently give them more than 5 or 6 innings except Kuroda. That's a recipe for destroying even the best bullpen.
