Coors..chase....citizens bank..great American..whenever we go there its like the kgun offense. For both squads

 

[vindeezy]

Zackary.takin things personally.

 

[laker4lifeman]

I'm dead with that flip

 

[run.lmc]

Greinke's mad lol you can tell.

 

[frink85]

above normal anger level Greinke

 

[vindeezy]

This is a gm where we can use bolsinger for long relief...zack isnt getting past the 5th or 6th...they put nicasio or perlata in...in a high leverage spot....u know the script.

 

[Benny Hinn]

Greinke can't pitch like Greinke so he'll just hit like Mike Trout

 

[senorroboto2k5]

Peralta needs to get the hell outta here.

Peralta needs to get the hell outta here.

Donnie is worse for bringing him in.

 

[denni5themenace]

phewwwww

great play by agon

 

[cincoseisdos]

F'in Jansen...

 

[Los Angeles]

No lead is safe with this bullpen

 

[Benny Hinn]

I'm already preparing myself for October after we lose in gut wrenching fashion in the 8th inning.

 

[carolinakickg]

Maybe Bolsinger or Frias can get us the middle relief we need.

 

[ooiron manoo]

Man, I miss watching the boys.

I get my fix by watching the condensed game on MLB At Bat and reading Dodgersdigest, along with following the thread.

Not the same though.

Serious question, why not just bench joc pederson for a week straight? maybe the rest would help.

 

[vindeezy]

I see what ur sayin....but he did sit 2 days straight vs Santiago and heaney..gotta get he and puig goin as well as get Red Turner back and rollin to make a serious run. Maybe a soft platoon with craw/****(vs tough lefties)...yes..dre can play center here n there.

 

[laker4lifeman]

A week wouldn't help he has to make adjustments now. Also his defense helps us a lot.

 

[Benny Hinn]

I forgot Joc was still on the team

 

[carolinakickg]

It's hard to sustain what Joc was doing as a Rookie.

His glove hasn't suffered.

He needs to figure it out.  I fully believe he will.

I'd rather sit Rollins and call up Seager than bench Joc any day of the week.

 

[Los Angeles]

that HR derby doesnt help things either man

but i feel like he swings to always crush the ball

Defensively he's been solid, and his power has been more than expected. However, he's a strikeout machine. From the beginning, people didn't notice since he was hitting bombs. Don't think the HR Derby is to blame entirely, could be fatigue, could be that he needs to adjust to pitchers adjusting to him. His numbers have been declining since May, the power was up though. Power dipped in July and now people are noticing that his other numbers are down. Sorry for the ramble.

Rest, platoon, the kid is struggling. He is needed though, so can't bench him, IMO.

 

[carolinakickg]

Did I just see Puig hit the cutoff man?!?!

 

[vindeezy]

This man is a straight gas can.....smdh.
