At this point, I'm almost past thinking that.
Every time he steps out here he just mows dudes down. Not that he'll never blow a save, but I've gained so much more confidence in him. Maybe it wasthe WBC.
Back in 05, Bills and Broxton combined for a no-hitter in the playoffs. From following that gameon milb.com to watching them both have some rough spots in the majors, it's great watching all this success.

Guys, Broxton's performance was a nail biter.
He had command issues, he had around 22 pitches which 12 of them were only strikes, he had a wild pitch which put a runner in scoring position and you can tellthat 5 outs he had in Houston really affected in.
I'd expect him to sit out a couple games, but that's where our bullpen gets shaky - who gets the nod to close out games? Torre is playing musicalchairs out there with relievers, it's apparent that Joe has lost a TON of confidence in Kuo, although Bellisario has closer type stuff - I dont thinkanyone of us trusts him out there with a 1 run lead.
Who else? Cory Wade is till on the DL, Mota still has command issues .... I'm thinking Ohman would probably get the nod, iunno
Joe Torre really needs to implement Loretta / Ausmus / Castro and them in the lineup, it's only gonna benefit us in the end.
We're up 1.5 games on the Padres, gotta keep distancing ourselves
Guys, vote for our Dodgers being all stars: Manny, Kemp, Ethier, Hudson, Bills and Broxton!!!!

I know dude has the stuff to dominate out there.. there's no doubt about it. I just wanted to see how he would hold up mentally on the road, with a runneron base/no outs, after his defense committed an error. He struggled a bit with command but managed to pull it off in the end. Hopefully that builds hisconfidence/mentality for future and he's able to completely trust his stuff no matter the situation.

BN, I have to say the name you dubbed Mientkiewicz, bugs me. Tony Jackson dubbed him "MKZ", hell, call him "Mintkayvitch". "Mien" sounds like somebodies gay french cat.
I didn't watch most of the game last night, just followed it on my phone and reading the recap when I got home. RISP on the road is

right after I typed that, I voted and realized we couldn't vote for Bills or Brox
as for mien it seemed easier to typed for me, it reminded me of ordering something off a Chinese menu to tell you the truth

I thought the Dodgers were going to pull away with the bases loaded and no outs, with Kemp at the plate. The next update I get is, LAD 3 COL 3, with the Rockies batting.
perfect execution.

What you missed: The boys went through the lineup in the first, and Manny is still trying to throw his hip out with his violent swings in Denver

dodgers usually dissapear after they add on some runs, gotta capitalize on the oppertunities and give jmac some more wiggle room.
we all know how quick a lead can dissapear
