Every time I pass by there after the game, that place looks ridiculously crowded.

Went to the game last night rocking my Angels Fitted

The ese's were cool last night. Just some friendly booing anytime an angel fan got up

What a terribly played game offensively last night by both teams. Aybar 2 pop-up bunts

Each team left like 10+ runners on base. But my boy Figgy took care of that. GG all in all. Gonna try to take the series tonight

[h1]Dodgers sign Korean pitchers young and old[/h1]
Korean right-hander Ji-Mo Lee, 22, has signed a minor league contract with the Dodgers.

"Ji-Mo has a feel for two types of pitches that are already at a major-league level," assistant general manager Logan White said in a statement, "and he should develop into a good pitcher."

Lee was drafted by the Lotte Giants in 2005, spent the next two years fulfilling his military duty, returned to the Giants in 2008 and was released in November, allowing him to pursue a move to the U.S.

More from the release:

"I have been watching him since high school and always liked his fastball and aggressiveness on the mound," said Byung-Hwan An, the Dodgers' scouting supervisor in Korea who scouted and signed Lee. "He is a very talented pitcher with a high ceiling. It is great that we can give him a chance to play in the States, which has been his dream."

"I am honored to be a part of the Dodger organization," said Lee, who recently changed his first name to Ji-Mo 'for better luck and fresh start.'

"I often watched Chan Ho Park pitch for the Dodgers on television and it's been my dream to play in the United States. Being able to play in a Dodger uniform is a dream come true. I will do my best to develop in the minor leagues and contribute to the Dodgers as soon as possible."

[The] Dodgers also signed another former Lotte Giants pitcher, Hyang-nam Choi, 38, to a minor league (triple-A) contract earlier this week. Choi played for the Kia Tigers (1990-96, 2005) and LG Twins (1997-2004). In 2006, Choi was signed by Cleveland Indians to a minor league contract (triple A). He then went back to Korea and played on the Lotte Giants (2007-0.

Eric Stults threw a bullpen session Friday and appears ready to start for the Dodgers in Colorado on Tuesday, reports Ken Gurnick of MLB.com. Jason Schmidt pitches at Albuquerque tonight at 6:05.

We dont NEED, but it'd be nice to see more Koreans and Mexicans in this organization.

Not that i'm complaining about our on-field product at the moment, but i'd love to see the team be a reflection of the fanbase, sans the cholos. Itallows for the fans to be more attached to the club, thus more $$ for the team

 

[Los Angeles]

If a taco can be infused with korean bbq and/or kimchi - I too am with the notion of bringing in more mexican and korean born players.

Let's start first with Adrian Gonzales, and then go from there.

 

[cincoseisdos]

im upfor that BN

 

[Los Angeles]

Pretty much the same lineup tonight.

I'm gonna go out on a limb and say, ethier will break out of his 'slump' tonight.

 

[Los Angeles]

This is weird.

FSN Prime Ticket the dodger pre-game is like mixed with Angels broadcasters.

The Giants.

Even without Barry Bonds, the rivalry and the hatred versus the Black / Orange runs deeper than the Angels. It isn't the same as it use to be though.

 

[cincoseisdos]

The giants no question

the halos arent rivals in my eyes, they play down the freeway and they falsely rep LA, thats the only reason i want to beat them. theyre not rivals in anysense of the imagination. Hell half their coaching staff is dodger blue so if anything its a friendly opponent.

they have my respect though.

1 inning down and i already saw 2 inflated rubbers
