Trey Turner to the IL with a hamstring. That ain’t good for a SS that has to cover the amount of infield they do.
Madres trade for yet ANOTHER high end player Arraez from the lowly Fish.
How’s that been working out for them the last few years. All the big names and bats (and egos to go with them) and still looking up at their daddies in the OC.
They put the “dis” in disfunctional.
GO DODGERS!!!

Cody picked up on that late hot streak after coming off IL. He had a 4 hit game last night. 2 doubles & a homerun. 7 for his last 13.
Overall, .268-7-19 / .345 / .536 in 25 games. Good for a 147 OPS+.

And Pepperman on the IL with a line drive on the calf. Luckily for him, the ball hit the fleshy part, so there's no fracture. He's supposed to be back by the end of this month.

Our old friends Maeda and Fruit Salad joined the walking wounded IL’s yesterday as well. Seems to be a pattern with pitchers this year. 100 mph fastballs are taking their toll. Was talking to a dude Friday night about Greg Maddux and how he never threw much more than low 90’s, but was still one of the best of our era. Probably one of the last guys that actually “PITCHED” rather than throw. He showed me a stat that he only went to a 3 - 0 count 177 times in his entire career (not including 133 intentional walks). Dude faced nearly 20,500 AB’s. That’s freaking unbelievable and unheard of these days. GO DODGERS!!!

He said it's not so much velo, but it's the way they train. Pitchers used to cross train which explains why they got hurt much less often.

Another old friend, Flea Market Ferguson, served up a grand slam today. I was watching the Yanks and Rays and the Yanks were cruising with a 6-0 lead till the 7th. Imagine what Yank fans are saying about him on their forum. "send him back to the Dodgers!" No thanks, we have a surplus of great relievers.

Tyler Anderson has bounced back big time after his disastrous debut in Anaheim last year. He's 5-4 / 2.52 ERA & 1.06 WHIP in 10 starts. He's averaging better than 6.1 innings a start.
Good for him.

THat's nice, but the Angels pitching is ranked 28th and one great starter is far from enough. Gone are the days of arguably the best 1-2 punch in a rotation in the bigs: Nolan Ryan and Frank Tanana.
