L. A. Dodgers

Has anyone told you today that THE DODGERS RULE ? Even after their loss to the (blech) Giants last night 7-6, I still think that the Dodgers are in line for taking the NL West. The best part about last nights game was when the skipper, Joe Torre, got ejected for backing up one of his players, Blake, who had moments earlier also been ejected for calling a call "Bullshit" Even though the Dodgers lost, it was a game in the tradition of the grand rivalry that these two teams possess. Tonight's game will undoubtably prove more of the same.

I've got to say. The best MLB games to watch are always the Giants/Dodgers games.

T.B.D.

Once again...Will they take their division? After last nights shutout of the Giants, their 9th of the year, (they lead the NL in shutouts, by the way) they still remain only one game back of the Diamondbacks. Their 2-0 defeat may be disputed in a court of opinion, but even if the Blake double and the Ethier run was not counted, and the tag at home had been an out...it still would have been a 1-0 shutout! And how about the Dodger bullpen being 0 for 25 in the last 2 games? They have not allowed a hit in 2 games. And still the question needs to be asked, have you heard today that THE DODGERS RULE!

Just in case you don't know it, the L A Dodgers have acquired Manny Ramirez from the Boston Red Sox in a trade involving 3 teams. He may be the piece of the puzzle that will land them into victory in the N L West division. More to follow. Oh... THE DODGERS RULE

--------------------------------------------------------------------------------

since the all star break the NL West is gaining a better set of records for their top two teams. The Diamondbacks and the Dodgers now both boast .500+ records. And with the aquisition of Manny Ramirez to the Dodgers, they have pull within .5 a game behind Az. They beat their most hated rivals, the SF (blech) Giants tonight, 6-2. Penny posted the win.

Have you heard today the DODGERS RULE!!

Dodgers are now 1 game back of AZ after beating the Phillies last night....GO DODGERS

I only wish I had put a 4 game parlay on the series against the Phillies...they swept them, and are now tied for 1st place.


Let's go Dodgers!
(can you hear the roar in the National League West??)

after a hard time with an 8 game losing streak, the Dodgers have now reversed the trend and have come up on an 8 game winning streak, including a sweep of the Arizona Diamondbacks that landed them in a 1.5 game lead in the National League West. They travel to San Diego fo a 3 game series today, and if they can keep up their present pace, they should be able to win the NL West and go to the playoffs in Oct. LET's GO DODGERS!!

Just wanted to post one thing after the Dodgers won their first game against the Cubs in their NLDS game 7-2.....
THE DODGERS RULE

............


i hate Jeremy Loney so much

i hope the Cubs can grind through this

The Los Angeles Dodgers have done it. They took the 2nd game at Wrigley field in a monstrous 10-3 victory over the Cubs tonight. They now lead the NLDS 2 games to none, and will be returning to Los Angeles for game three of the series. For a team that trailed a majority of the year in their division, they have taken a commanding lead in this series, and have quieted the nay sayers with consecutive victories. On ESPN the morning of the first game, the prognosticators were talking about a Cubs sweep of the series, and the Dodgers may have just swung this to be an exact opposite.

The Dodgers Sweep the Cubs. Dodgers go to the National League Championship Series...
Cubs go home
Chavez Ravine is going wild and the Dodgers will be playing the winner of the Phillies/Brewers series.
Has anybody told you today that the Dodgers Rule

are the dodgers the team that lost to the PHILADELPHIA PHILLIES world series champions. been a while since i can claim a champion for my home team. hopefully i will see the eagles win one before i die. still angry over that cardinals game, should of been us in the superbowl. good luck next year dodgers if manny comes back you will be a contender, would love to have him in philly.

Just noticed Orel is now a poker player (poker stars pro) and is interviewed on this weeks 2+2 broadcast. Thought dodger fans and poker fans might find it interesting.
Regards Guy

i seen orel playing poker too. he gives whoever knocks him out of the tourny a signed baseball. congrats to the dodgers fans for resigning manny. going to be another good season for the dodgers.

so glad they signed manny surely didnt want that %%(&&%#))*)) in boston again even though were still payin for his contract good for them his bat is good his fielding is atrocious and his attitude sucks wouldnt be suprized later we find him on the steroid list also. but he did make a good one two punch with big papi and like what papelbon said about him hes like a plague for the whole team .

OK...this thread was started last year, and is now in need of some updates for the new year. As anyone who has their head out of the sand knows, Manny did return to the Dodgers. And they are hot. Sitting on top of the National League West with a 7-3 record, completing a sweep of their rivals the giants, and with a 5 game winning streak under their belts, I am seeing a Dodger team that may well be the winners of the NL West this year. It is very early in the season, but they do look good. Going to Colorodo tonight to face the Rockies. GOOOO BLUE!

i have to agree with you they rule, "BUT" they rule right behind my Red Sox lol

Who would have believed that the Dodgers would have the best record in baseball coming into June. That is not their usual scenario. They dont often come alive until after the all-star break. But with a 36-18 record to date, and leading their division by a firm 9 games already, the boyz in blue are doing a very handsome job of dominating the National Leauge West. And the greatest thing about it is that they are doing it without the help of Manny (50 game suspension) Ramirez. Once again...this is a team sport. And like everyone else, I was a little worried when their star player was benched. But as the record shown, the Dodgers have more substance than one batting machine with dred-locks. So, as I say from time to time, have you heard lately that THE DODGERS RULE???

the Dodgers are red hot, my hats off to them kev, hope they keep it up for you and all you people out on the westcoast.

They had a really poor outing tonight against the Phillies, but thank you for the good wishes and all.

took the series from the Rangers this weekend. That's a good thing as over the past few years, they have struggled in interleage play away. Go blue!!

Been a while since I posted in this thread, but with a win over the Giants tonight (4-2) It is a good time to revive this particular thread. I also was happy to see the Angels win tonight, especially since I had a 2 game parlay on my favorite free sports betting site (see the link below). I have my hopes set on a freeway World Series, but really only the Dodgers are important to go in my book. How in the world can they not. Their pitching continues to be awesome, and their offense is still amongst the best in baseball. LET'S GO BOYZ IN BLUE!

No doubt about it from me.. Dodgers are probably the best team this year! I'm still hoping my Cubs can overcome the constant parade of injuries this year and come out on top in the Central Division... I definitely have my doubts about that.. everytime they get someone healthy... then another top player or starter goes down.... HELP! LOL!

There is a roar in the National League west. So come and join me in rooting for the the National Leagues wet taem that took it tonight. The dodgers have proven they rule. Here's to the Boyz in Blue! There is dancing and celebration in...
