All of these injuries to the Dodgers is a valuable lesson. Spending a lot of money on top-level players (Correa) doesn't guarantee success if they can't be healthy.

Throwing a ton of money at a small amount of players is risky.

If we win Friday, Saturday there needs to be not 1 single bad word about any player, coach or board member. Saturday we will celebrate.

If I have another son at this point, he'll have four legs, be covered in fur, and will bark at people that get too close my house.

That would be a good name for a Dog especially one that is in Protect mode like my Girl is when strange men walk by the Yard. Had to put up a Real 4ft fence to keep her from jumping it all the time.

He can either keep Correa, Altuve, and Bregman together and start working on extensions for Tucker and Alvarez or go back to what he had when he bought the team. He is getting two big contracts off the books that amount to nearly $70 million a year so he can pay Correa and sign a top starting pitcher. We don't have to extend Tucker and Alvarez right now but they need to have a plan to get it done.

Besides Ryan, Bass was one of my favorite mid' 80's Astros players Great attitude and hustle. He even gave one of my kids a cracked game used bat back in the day when he saw us up along the 3rd base boxes early for a game. Him using that screen name always gave me heartburn.

Joe Kelly is starting for LA tonight.
I haven't paid a lot of attention, why aren't the Dodgers able to have normal starts by Scherzer, Urias, and Buehler and use their bullpen like normal? They have three good healthy starters...
I feel like they're over thinking what got them there.
