Official Los Angeles Dodgers Season Thread: NLCS vs Phillies

[slayer carcetti]

at Pierre's homer...it was a legit one too not like it barely clearly the wall
Good to see Saito get in there and pitch well, he looked pretty comfortable out there.
Penny...not sure what to think about his future this season, but I'm not confident with him out there right now

 

[gza73]

Kemp is going to be a stud. hope they don't trade or let go of him.

Torre: Manny unlikely to win NL MVP

Dodgers manager cites slugger's four months spent in AL

PITTSBURGH -- There is growing sentiment that Manny Ramirez deserves consideration for the National League MVP Award for turning around the Dodgers, even though he'll spend only two months in the league.
Joe Torre, the 1971 NL MVP, won't argue with Ramirez's impact, but doesn't consider his MVP candidacy likely because of the four months Ramirez wasn't a Dodger.

"I don't think it's going to happen. Two months is really tough," said Torre. "You look at [Albert] Pujols and some of the things he's done all the time. To me, it's depending on your interpretation of an MVP. He could be considered if we go on to the postseason. Without him, it probably wouldn't happen. To that point, sure, it doesn't matter how long he's been here."

Torre remembers the controversy when he won the award playing for the second-place Cardinals over Willie Stargell, whose Pirates went on to win the World Series.

"That's part of the argument," Torre said. "I had the best year of anybody and went home. I don't disagree, if we get there, without him we wouldn't have made it. The division was so bunched up, he made the difference."

In 41 games since joining the Dodgers from the Red Sox, Ramirez is hitting .385 with 14 homers, 10 doubles and 41 RBIs. He finished in the top 10 of MVP voting in the American League eight consecutive seasons from 1998-2005, finishing as high as third twice.

Dodgers manager Joe Torre said he doesn't care for Lil Wayne, Tego Calderon or whoever else's music comes blasting out Manny Ramirez's iPod that is hooked up to the clubhouse speakers. And even though Torre told the team in spring training that music would be outlawed before games, he said he doesn't mind that it has been played almost every day for the last two weeks. "If one person has a problem with it, he has to stop it," Torre said. "My sense is that this time of year, if things are going fine, people put up with it. Nobody's dissenting right now." -- LA Times

 

[slayer carcetti]

at Joe not liking Lil' Wayne...he knows what's really good

 

[frenchblue23]

I could see how an old guy like Joe wouldn't like Lil' Wayne, some of his songs are just murderous on the ears

 

[mr jordan04]

Somebody hook me up with a password to buy playoff tix.

Is anyone watching the game right now??

I'm at work but I heard right now on ESPN radio that Manny has significantly shorter hair

I know it's not a usual baseball topic, but It's Manny we're talking about
