Scott Podsednik and Bullpen Woes

Earlier yesterday the Dodgers traded two minor leaguers to the Royals for Scott Podsednik. However Kuroda had a rough 7th. The Dodgers lost 6-1.

Back to Podsednik though. He is batting .310 with 45 RBI and 5 home runs. I think he has a 15 game hit streak too.

But possibly the best part of this trade is the high socks. We will finally have high socks patrolling the outfield daily at Dodger Stadium.

It's a Good pickup, but the real problem is pitching. But for once you can't blame Colletti for this. Even if that LA Times guy says you can. I don't know what to make of him. Total hater. Which makes me mad because I respect how the LA Times does sports.

Anyways today it will be Soap Bubble Padilla vs. Matt Latos. Latos is 11-4 which doesn't make me too optimistic.

That's all. Emails? Address is juanpierrewoodblog@gmail.com. Go Dodgers!

Andre Ethier vs. The Flu bug

Nice. Ethier comes though in the clutch. That's what I'm talking about. Make a statement Dodgers.

Tonight it will be Kuroda against Clayton Richards. We need to get out of this offensive slump.

Don Mattingly will manage the Phoenix team in the Fall league. I supose he needs to get some kind of experience.

I won't be going down to Anahiem afterall for today. Maybe some other time.

That's all. Go Dodgers!

Matt Garza No No

Another no hitter? Yup. And it was a Fresno kid so I had to make a post. I faintly remember watching him in college. I remember seeing him in the World Series. He won the only game the rays won that series. And now he throws Tampa's first no hitter. It's nice to see the Rays being on the winning end of a no no.

I got the opportunity to go down to an Angel game tomorrow. So I will probably go. I've been to Angel Stadium but it never feels the same as Dodger Stadium.

Also: What happened to Eric Smith?? I noticed he wasn't announcing on Friday or Saturday? Is he back? How come he seems like hes not there half the time?What's this new guy's name? If you have an answer email me at juanpierrewoodblog@gmail.com.

Rob Dyrdek: This Is My Town

Here's the This is My Town Billboard for Rob Dyrdek. He should go to Dodger Stadium for a fantasy factory Episode. He also did a Code of Conduct video for the jumbotron.

New Fantasy Factory Episode tonight. I think its at 6:30 (pacific).

Three game series against Padres starts today. Lets make a statement. Go Dodgers!

Loney Walkoff!!! (7-24)

Wow. If you haven't been reading my blog long you probably don't know i'm only 13. And living up here in Fresno i don't get out to more than 6 games a year. So i think its safe to say that this is the best game i've ever seen. Not just the Loney homer. The new guy, Kenley Jansen did great. I didnt even know his first name when i first got to the park. So when he struck out Pagan on three pitches I was pumped.

Montasterious pithced okay. It was a very slow game at the beginning. But eventually it became more watchable.
 I dont know if they do this alot, but in the 10th or so, jets flew over and made this.

 Pretty cool.

I saw Deuce for the first time in person! Didnt get a high five though. He pumped up the pavillion, but didnt seem to happy about having to share the spotlight with some Jamison Moss wanabee kid.

Sidenote: Whatever happened to Jamison? He was great.

I gotta give love to the Mets fan sitting 7 seats away. He was great. He had his good moments. But in the end when Loney hit it out, he sat there like a man and took the crap from Jose and Gary.

 Thats it. Sorry for the late post. Go Dodgers
