Can the Dodgers just win the division already? Giants injuries are difficult to watch, their bench, even with September callups, is full of 5 rookies.

RIP Yogi Berra, a legend for both his play on the field and his quotes
Eric Maynor is the worst basketball player I've ever seen.

Mets are 2-6 over their last 8, but we can't take advantage at all. :(

Story of our season: lost opportunities.

Would you move Rendon for the right package?
or he's untouchable?

Higga wrote:Harps is a pretty good fielder. He makes the occasional boneheaded play but his arm has prevented a lot of base runners from even trying to take an extra base or score from 2nd(or even 3rd). "Doesn't play defense" is overly harsh. Okay he's not Mike Trout but nobody is Trout defensively.

His one big flaw is base running/base stealing(he's fast enough to be really good in this area but he's sloppy often).

Fangraphs rates him below average in fielding (-6.5 DEF and -3.0 UZR).

Well I've seen him play a LOT this year and I can say he isn't below average. Numbers don't always tell the truth, especially when it comes to fielding.

So how are guys like Joe West, Jim Wolfe and Andy Fletcher allowed to be umps today? Baseball needs to get rid of guys like that ASAP.

We watched the tragedy unfold. We did as we were told, we bought and sold. It was the greatest show on Earth...but then it was over.

I think the MVP debate is over. Defensive play of the year and a walk-off home run today.

Good thing Wood (the more important piece that we have years of control over) has been solid for the Dodgers in his stint here and Peraza were in that deal.

Damn, he fell off.
