What are you talking about? This is still spring training, right?

Slightly related note: There's Major League Softball, and they play in our area. I was interested in possibly seeing a game (as MLB games are out of our reach for a while yet) until I saw the team names.

"Low Expectations"
"We Got the Runs"
"Beer Today Gone Tomorrow"

I thought maybe the upper level, men only section would be a little more serious. Then I saw this team name:

"Sofa King Good"

Yeah, I think I'll skip this.

Way to go Dodgers! Lose 3 games in 24 hours!

I think Matt Kemp pawned his gold glove to pay for hitting lessons. A calculated gamble on his part, trying to turn himself into a top-level power hitter, but it definitely seems to have cost him a step fielding. Don't know if it's a result of just different physical training, or different focus, but yikes.

After that video, then seeing Blake DeWitt take a bullet to the leg, I foresee a not too distant future with pitchers wearing SOME form of head protection. Even if it's not much more than a super-padded cap,

I'm sure everybody's seen this but I had missed it all day.

Absolutely appalling. And I don't mean the boy.

Ghoulish Delight · 05-04-2010, 07:56 PM

Had not seen that. Fvcking hell how did the taser threshold drop so low?

I am not watching, just came into get an update via Game Day Live. Only to discover that Haeger couldn't even get an out before being yanked. Ouch.

Ghoulish Delight · 05-08-2010, 08:42 PM

Hmm, so you're saying I should NOT throw the game on the TiVo and ruin the rest of my birthday. Done.

Alex · 05-08-2010, 09:35 PM

Well, if it is any consolation the Dodgers have only given up runs in 3 innings so far. The other five have been stellar.

Nope, not much consolation at all.
