  1. Maybe not "expecting," but I thought he could go 5 IP with 2 ERs, maybe 3.
  2. Top Post Season OPS in 2025: 1.700 Mookie 1.500 Teoscar 1.400 Ohtani 1.286 Volpe (shut this guy down, tonight!) 1.267 Rojas (4th Dodger!) 1.222 Storytime! 1.167 Rortvedt (5th Dodger!) 1.143 Suzuki 1.142 Baez 1.133 C Kelly 1.127 Bregman 1.125 Kike 1.100 Eaton (our plan B guy.) Sox have 3 in the top 13.
  3. If Garcia plays, Duran to DH and Garcia in LF. If we trade Duran instead: LF: Anthony v R/ Garcia v L CF: Rafaela RF: Abreu v R/ Anthony v L
  4. I think his poor D made Bloom move towards better OF D & JBJ's ghost.
  5. How about old friends Betts & Kike leading the Dodgers to the next round?
  6. Renfroe was big with the HRs and RBI, and threw out a lot of runners, but his RF D was not good, and he was why we made the awful trade for JBJ.
  7. I'm still optimistic about tonight, and I'd feel a lot better about this season, but even if we lose, I think we took a major step forward. That doesn't mean we take the foot off the peddle. We need to not only make up for losing Devers, but also Gio and maybe Bregman. That's no easy task. IMO, we need 3 major additions: SP (solid #2 type) Big bat (3B or 1B) Good bat who can play 1B, 3B or 2B. If we sign someone like Schwarber, it would be for 1B not DH. (Alonso and maybe Suarez would be other solid choices.) 2B could be a trade for Marte or a Torres signing. Trading for Keller might be the best we can do for the rotation, considering the budget.
  8. We are facing a righty, tonight, so I expect a whole new line-up. Maybe.... 1. L Duran LF 2. R Bregman 3B 3. L Yoshida DH 4. R Story SS 5. L Lowe 1B 6. L Abreu RF 7. R Rafaela CF 8. R Naravez C 9. # Sogard 2B (maybe lefty DHam)
  9. Narvaez over Vaz at .659 Duran, Rafaela, Abreu and even Ref over Dugo at .777. Marwin had the 9th most PAs in 2021 and hit .567. Franchy Cordero, Danny Santana, Chavis and Arauz has over 400 PAs between tham and all sucked at bat.
  10. I get that, but about 3-4 players who would normally have started were no longer available. We had 3-4 subs in the line-up.
  11. While true, we no longer have Anthony, Casas, Mayer (and Devers,) and though all are lefties, Three would have started, if still here or not on the IL. (not Mayer?)
  12. Fantastic post, cp. I don't think I've ever agreed with a post as much as this one.
  13. Agreed. It'a long shot. The better chance is that the unsung arms carry us, as many have all year long. It's all hands on deck, plus we'll have tomorrow off, if we win and the winter off if we lose.
  14. Bello would need to turn things around, or someone like Early and Harrison just go nutty. The longshot would be the bats errupting.
  15. Down to the biggest game of the season. I'm not so much worried about Early and the pen as our offense. Just get it done, guys!
  16. I'd put Casas #1 on the DH only list. Yoshida #2. Ref #3. Duran #4. Romy is barely acceptable at 1B and maybe 2B, but yes, he's still a downer. I'd say Story would be a plus at 2B.
  17. Too many players where DH is their best position, and some aren't good enough hitters to be a FT DH.
  18. Crappy way to lose a game. Grounding into 3 DPs set the tone. We were out hit 10-6, but the game was still winnable.
