So
I’m thinking we need an official GLB proclamation about Jed Hoyer. I don’t know if we’re supposed to like him or not. GLB must tell me what to think!

And Padilla suddenly decided he's going to walk more guys today
than he has all post-season.
We're boned.

Everything just falls apart for the Dodgers against Philly.
Even Padilla, who has been simply lights out, is serving up big hits.
We're boned.

I like watching Manny hit himself in slow motion.

That was a terrible decision to swing at that pitch, Manny.
What in the hell is LA paying this guy for, anyway?
We're boned.

Way. Too. Much.

Geez.
LA has hit like 3 batters tonight.

The Dodgers are playing against the Phillies
like they did against us to end the season.
We're boned.
by Zach (maestro876) on Oct 21, 2009 7:43 PM PDT reply actions
LA pitching has only given up 5 hits.
But of those 5 hits, three have been home runs.
They’ve also walked 4 batters and hit 3.
We're boned.
by Zach (maestro876) on Oct 21, 2009 7:45 PM PDT reply actions
And now they're up there at the plate hacking away.
I thought they would be able to suck it up and send the series back to LA. But that’s not happening.
We're boned.

Sure looks that way.
Unless the Angels go all 2007 Red Sox. There’s still hope.

I still have hope.

Hey, let's see if Manny can hit into a run-scoring double play!

Or just an RBI single.
Damn.

Bloop single for Kemp.

And Loney pops out in foul territory on the first pitch.
God these teams are so Padres-like.

Blake keeping it alive.
He’s damn lucky he didn’t get rung up on ball 2.

The Philly and New York hitters
are all ridiculously hot.

God Damn.
The Dodger bullpen was by far the best in baseball in the regular season. And here in the NLCS they’re just hemorrhaging runs.
Much like the Angel offense, it just went “poof”.
We're boned.

really?
how can you not be interested in two talented teams duking it out?
I'm not sure that there are two baseball teams further from Southern California
than Philadelphia and New York. Perhaps Boston, but I’d say the same thing if they were in the series.
We're boned.

i understand
but i think its going to be the most interesting series possible given how some teams have deteriorated in the past couple weeks.
