    Mookie set an RBI major league record for a lead off hitter at 105 and counting.

    It's that time of year. October playoff baseball!!!

    Going against the Dbacks. Hope it's not a repeat of last year so we will see. Big question is if the pitching can hold up or not and if the hitting doesn't disappear in crunch time.

    We seem to hit their best pitching very well, but they got crazy speed if they got on base.

    What a humiliating two games. Someone should get fired over this.

    I didn't have high expectations, but you can't lose like this.

    Kershaw and Miller flopped harder than Marcus Smart and the hitters look allergic to hitting.

    If Friedman doesn't throw Dave Roberts into the dumpster after they get swept tomorrow, then Magic needs to tell ownership to get rid of Friedman.

    And while they are at it, get Will Smith, Muncy and Kershaw and leave them in AZ. Never seen this large amount of chokers in my life.

    Beyond words that we got Ohtani. It’s going to be a blast to watch him.

    Dodgers stadium needs to bring in Japanese food!

    Man that deal is psychotic but this dude is a straight beast. With LA he can literally DH for most of the season to let his pitching arm get right. This is a huge for the Dodgers and Ohtani about to learn what it feels like to really have it all in LA. Angels couldn't do for him what he will be able to do on and off the field with the Dodgers.

    I wonder what happened? Weren’t the reports talking about 600M range for X number of years? Did he accept and then the Dodgers simply came back with more money and he said …. oooops sorry Blu Jays , changed my mind?

    Or was fake news / premature breathless reporting trying to scoop everyone else?

    Some psychos were tracking this plane flying from SNA to Toronto and some reporter named Jon Morosi and Dodgers nation thought it was done a deal for Toronto. But,

    THE PLANE WAS EMPTY

    He was but I think it was more by fans and fringe reporters. When I started seeing the "is he or isn't he" on the plane to Canada made me think it wasn't a forgone conclusion. And... there was nothing on ESPN.

    Dave Roberts is still the manager. Until that changes I don’t see how this helps win a World Series.

    He's my favorite player who's never been a Philly. Happy he's in LA rather than Atlanta or New York. Congrats to you guys. Enjoy him. He's a treasure.
