Riley needs to crank one

I think Freddie Freeman looks better against the LHP than right tonight.

Ibanez is a dollar short tonight.

Unfortunately, Jake has already had his hit for the night

McStinky with a triple!

Yeah - if we have clean-up hitter for a few years that would fill what's been a big hole for too long. You keep pinching yourself though -- is it real/sustainable?

Tork BOMBE!

man - Ibanez got one to hammer and fouled it off. - then K's 😥

Got the matchup we wanted but Kerry couldn't connect. Looked like he was actually too early - cheating a little maybe.

Oops

should've thrown off-speed there. Thought he had him set up for the K.

90 pitches under stress. Dodgers are going to kill Snell in the first game.

Torkelson has his walks for the month

mistake for the Dodgers - didn't keep Riley at 2nd

Skubal strikes out Muncie but the ump says no. Then gets him anyway

maybe Harris did mean Kreidler was an elite CF? 🤣

Keith in the lineup against Snell is a matter of hope over probabilities. So lets hope

Torkelson not going to get a lot to hit with Margot behind him. At least he recognized that. And Margot gets a hit anyway!

Even the baseball gods can't resist the LA glitz

Gleyber flashing the leather.

continue to hate the contact play.

There was a story the other day (ESPN?) about the Royals to the effect that they are working a program to try and improve their pitchers' health - one the things they are pushing is to get their pitchers to use more change of speed to their advantage - i.e. don't throw max effort all the time. I could only think of Skubal as I read that and wished it was something he would do. I've always tended to the belief that one of the reasons JV lasted so long was that he used his top end judiciously early in his career - always a lot of variation within his 4 seam fastball - though in a recent interview I saw, even JV himself has wondered whether he would be able to have the same success pitching the way he did when he came up if were coming up today.

maybe. Hide is relative term. Especially a business with as much real estate as Amazon. You can shift profits or losses into real estate holding entities, You can manipulate who gets charged what on property expenses and which div leases to which till the cows come home. Again, I'm absolutely not making any claims about Amazon here except to defend my skepticism that they could get away with a lot before anyone caught it . Standard reports and SEC filings just don't go into that level of detail at the individual facility or division level. I'll hold that almost any large corp can do a lot of things that no-one would notice or be able to figure out, and more to the point would be perfectly legal/acceptable but still obscure an accurate interdivisional reading. And in one important sense that's perfectly fair; an investor can only buy an interest in the whole company anyway.

LOL - my grandfather (about 1000mi east of italian), always sprayed down his driveway on summer days!

LOL. You could say the democratic party contains its multitudes. Hopefully some of them are dead.
