Dan Patrick with Ned Colletti on Manny Ramirez
Dan: Do you want him back?
Ned: Well it’s his decision.
Dan But do you want him back?
Ned: ::pause:: Well, we’d take him back. Sure.
Hey, Frank? Jamie?
You might want to stop playing keep-away with the Dodgers. You want to kill each other, fine, but leave us, the players, and all of those people who work for you and have nothing to do with your divorce out of it. Just a thought.

diamondleung:
Jamie McCourt’s lawyer has issued a stern warning to her estranged husband Frank — if the L.A. Dodgers owner doesn’t play ball, “a lot will come out about the kind of person Frank McCourt is.”

Jamie McCourt Pulls Divorce Trigger →
This makes me sad.
Thank you fans
Since I can root for neither team, I will not be watching the World Series this year. And even though we fell short of the fall classic once again. This quick season recap from the Dodgers reminds us that it sure was one hell of a season.
Dodgers' Kemp named SN All-Star →
Not how we wanted it to end.
But, fellas…thanks for a hell of a season.

• Regarding Shower-gate ‘09. If I have been taken out of the game, have disgusting sweaty dreadlocks, it’s cold, and I am one of the first people with the chance to shower. There is no question, I’m taking that shower. Broxton shoulda closed it out and nobody would have noticed.
• A 3-1 Deficit is horrible. But the Red Sox came back after being down 3-0 in ‘04, and as...
Trader Joes is full of haters
sitko:
I wore my Phillies hat to Trader Joes yesterday and was boo-ed by the staff. I have never been heckled when buying groceries before… the sad part was that I had no idea why I was being boo-ed. I just wear the hat since it’s what my family does… Did the Phillies rape a kid or something?
No but I saw one Philly scare the shit out of kids by pretending to throw a baseball at their...

Victorino is an asshole.
So I got here early to watch batting practice and Victorino is in center shagging balls. Dude gets one like 3 feet from the wall and as everyone is yelling his name to ask for the ball he cocks back and pretends to throw it at everyone in the front then laughs and throws it in to the ball boy. Such a dick.
Well.. that was a nightmare
4 of 7 walks cashed in for runs. Torre where were you with the hook!?! You hooked Wolf in 3 innings and won the game vs St. Louis. Now, Sherill .. that shit happens. Dude has given up 2 runs since joining the Dodgers and gave up 3 tonight. But that should have been our game. Donnie Baseball better be calling Kemp up at effing 6 am tomorrow to work on some damn ass plate discipline. Sooooo damn...

Kershaw to Start Game 1 →
A team official confirmed. A formal announcement will be made later today when the Dodgers work out and meet the media.
Fiery competitor Ethier headlines Dodgers'... →
Don Mattingly, the Dodgers hitting coach who spent his entire 14-year career as a player with the Yankees, likens Ethier to Paul O’Neill, a former Yankees teammate and another lefty with a swing of beauty, in both talent and temperament. Either during or after an at-bat, both could go off at any time. Also like O’Neill, Mattingly said, “When he gets mad, he concentrates more. I...
There is Interest in Kim Ng →
oliviaaarrgh:
Need I remind the Padres that a woman should never hold that position? It just shouldn’t happen. I want the Padres to succeed, not fail, so I would kindly advise them to stay as far away from her as possible. So far away that they never mention her name again. Ever. By the way, Logan White is still addicted to drugs, so he would be a terrible choice as well. And he eats children....
Kershaw in Game 1? →
anaccumulation:
Joe Torre had Clayton Kershaw prepared to start a possible Game 5 of the National League Division Series against the Cardinals instead of Randy Wolf, but didn’t talk about it. There are strong indications that Torre will have the 21-year-old Kershaw start Game 1 of the NL Championship Series, too, and as a bonus, Torre’s probably getting Hiroki Kuroda back after Kuroda missed the...
