You mean the best team in baseball?

i'm not talking about the dodgers ;)

but seriously, the dodgers are looking dangerous.  if only kemp could stay healthy.

Beautifully done.  Except, that I'm going to venture to guess that Soriano might not be 100%.

thanks. if it were me, i would have went with clippard, but traditionally the closer is the guy for a situation like that. 

not sure if soriano has something nagging him.  has there been any indication? his miami BS was bad luck. didn't see the dodgers loss.


2 HR's in his last four outings, a blown save and a loss.  Given 3 days off and you're right, if you're not going to use your closer in the top of the 9th down one run at home against the heart of the order, when are you going to use him?

That tells me it's more than a confidence thing.

the miami hr was good hitting, IIRC.

4 blown saves in 29 opportunities though. woof.

Trade that contract, or at least put him on waivers next month if things don't improve and see if someone is desperate enough to pick it up.

seriously.  the demand for a closer has never been so high. so many contenders without a solid closer.

We'll see how they play today. I can only follow on Twitter and the weird pitch tracker thing on their site. Getting 4 runs is good.....using Pirates 3 errors means they could still have 0 runs though...

They pulled it out, but from what I saw/heard they didn't really deserve to win.  I'll take it though.

Another instance today of bases loaded + none out and coming up empty.

Well, he did strike a guy out and didn't give up a HR, so I could be mistaken...

If it weren't for the Pirates 3 errors in this game, could have been back to back sweeps.

I'll enjoy the highlights when I get home. Good to see Bam Bam hitting taters again.

Is this their 2nd walk off win of the year?

Technically the second, but it's the first by a real hit.  The first was a from a sac-fly.  (At least that's what they were saying on the radio.)   It was Harper's 1st walkoff homer though.

so... looks like we drop the first game of the double header, unless there is a miraculous comeback.

and harvey vs. ohlendorf tonight. gee, i wonder how that goes.

continue to be amazed at the nats ability to redefine rock bottom.

I thought of you last night when I was watching SC and saw that Davey got tossed.  Bet he's reading this board....
