So i'm writing this as the bases are loaded and Victorino gets plunked.
This is horrendous but i'm keeping this in perspective.
As a season, these guys did great. They handled the NLDS like pros and swept the Cardinals.
The NLCS, is the same exact story as last season. The bats are lost. The Phillies looking like godsends, and we're on our way to lose in 5.
Jonathan Broxton still wets the bed at the thought of pressure and Matt Stairs -- and quite frankly so do we as fans.
They won a tougher than expected NL West, competition is great and makes our own squad better.
Colletti has re-signed. McCourts are separating, Manny can still leave yet again this Offseason.
Martin needs to dump his girl and get back on that poutine + beignets diet.
Jonny Boy needs , well... I don't know what he needs but it's something.
Dodgers 2010 Free Agent Class
Brad Ausmus (C)
Doug Mientkiewicz (1B)
Orlando Hudson (2B)
Mark Loretta (UTIL)
Manny Ramirez (LF) $20MM player option
Jason Schmidt(SP)
Randy Wolf (SP)
Guillermo Mota (RP)
Will Ohman (RP) - $2.2MM club option with a $200K buyout
Schmidt is gone, as is Ohman. Safe to say Wolf is on his way out as well, O-Dog and Padilla too.
Will we be spenders? Will we stand pat? Will we move players?
Where do you think we need to bulk up, and if needed, who needs to get the boot from LA?
I'm not going to go as in depth as I did last offseason. This is beyond disappointing, this is terrible, this is bull %!@!. Last year I wasn't hurtbecause they got hot at the right time late August and just rode that wave into October. This year, we wrecked it all year, other people predicted such big things for this club, and yet here we are. New year, same spot.
Phillies have our number, they're THE NL team right now, and with good reason.
This season in my opinion is a wash in my eyes. I'll leave it at that.
At the end of the day, we're still fans. I don't follow any other American sport. This is who I live and die by. I'm stupid, i'm still going tobe getting my 2010 season tickets in hopes of yet another NLCS against the Phillies
Tomorrow i'll be officially ending the baseball season with a fresh haircut and the beard back to normal resembling a fresher DJ Drama
Discuss.
Thanks to all the regulars and the late posters. It's been fun. Off to the Winter...
