Since Time Warner has given, and continues to give S. California fans a univers-sized enema, I didn't get to the see the game last night, and will miss all of the games this series.
So I was stuck watching ESPN for scattered highlights.
Interesting comments by Cora and the other guy last night: and I quote: "The Dodger defense isn't very good."
They went on to chastize Gonzalez for NOT being there for the cutoff on Pence's RBI single in the first, and then shredded Rameriz for his incredible lack of range at SS.
I would have thrown in Puig. Tremendous talent, but all too frequently out of control in the field.
He's the proto-type kind of player known for being in his "own world" out there.
He's like a great defensive End who WON'T stay home on the back side when the play goes the other way, allowing the runner to cut back for huge gains.
IF I'm an HONEST Dodger fan, I'm not excited about a lot of things this team doesn't do or can't do.
I like Uribe, he's steady, but he really has limited range at 3B. Planted next to Rameriz, that's a BAD thing.
I would be very, very concerned if my 1Bman went to sleep in a KEY matchup, forgetting to be the cut off man like Gonzalez did last night.
If a vet like that has his head up his fanny with 16 games to go...what does that say about the focus of the entire team as a whole?
Anyway, that's where my head would be.

That's incredibly kind of you, Don, but from Camarillo, where I am, to Orange county, where you are, on a Saturday...we're talking a 3 hour drive.
But that was a nice thing to offer!

They keep track of almost everything now, so I suppose this isn't the case, but I wondered how close going from winning 9-0 to losing 17-0 came for turnarounds in two shutout games -- by opposite teams -- back to back. THat's a 26-run swing.
