Oh, and I'll take the blame for the no-no being ruined. I hit RECORDIFICATE on the Divver while telling my wife he was about to do something special...

No, it was my brother. He picked him up on his fantasy team in the 7th.

It would have been nice to see The Dodgers all over the news for the perfect game. A 1-hitter isn't nothing to scoff at though. Beautiful masterpiece thrown there.


First place tie, MFers.

Speaking of Jack Wilson, good news out of Pittsburgh that they are likely to hold on to him.

Dejan Kovacevic puts the brakes on the Wilson-to-L.A. rumor. He says that while Wilson is not untouchable, the Pirates are not likely to trade him. They consider him affordable and do not have a capable replacement.

Kovacevic says talks with the Dodgers "seem dormant," and the Dodgers never offered a player from their Major League roster. Additional unknown teams have also called about Wilson.

about time those talks quiet down...trading anyone on the roster would be foolish for obtaining another weak hitting player on the team. Hopefully with the limited play, Mr. Glass at SS will stay healthy.

Sources say McCourt was the one who nixed the deal that would have brought Sabathia to Los Angeles.

And I say, "So what?"

McCourt flatly denies it was his decision alone that nixed it.

Sabathia is either having a bad year or has seen better days. With our luck with FA signing s and trades, I am glad they didn't make this trade

Yeah. I'm not upset that this deal didn't work out.

CC is having an awesome year. He started off bad, first 5 starts were ugly but after than he has been unreal.

Depending on the package
I wouldn't have had a problem with a CC trade.

Here's a blurb on Furcal regarding the off-season

Quote:
Paddy (St. Louis, MO): Hey Buster, Have you ever met Koufax and what happens to Furcal after this season? Losing 4 months in a contract year didn't do him any favors. Any chance he stays with L.A.?

SportsNation Buster Olney: Paddy: That will be a tough negotiation, for sure... It's hard to define exacty what his worth is right now. If his back heals, you'd think his best bet might be playing on a one-year deal next season, and then hitting the market again next fall. No, I've never met Sandy Koufax -- who is the reason why I was a Dodgers fan as a kid. I read a book on him, written by someone who I later worked with at the NY Times, George Vecsey...

New piece up on firejoemorgan.com regarding such issues as:
-Plaschke is terrible/a bad writer
-Blake DeWitt!
-Dodgers vs. Angels...what gives?

Enjoy. A good look at the raw stats, including the irrelevant ones Plaschke refers to (and "the culture of winning.")

Ned asleep at the wheel!

ESPN - Cubs trade four players to A's for pitchers Harden, Gaudin - MLB

But honestly, Harden is a gamble because of his health problems, but I think the Dodgers could have matched that offer.

Lets hope so, because Eckstein would be even worse than Wilson.



As for the Dodgers, they've scouted Pittsburgh's veteran shortstop, Jack Wilson, and, according to one industry source, are considering Toronto's David Eckstein, who helped the crosstown Angels win a World Series in 2002 before going on to another World Series title with the Cardinals two years ago.

But there seems to be no sense of urgency to make a deal.

Dodgers general manager Ned Colletti has said that the organization would consider dealing for a shortstop more than they normally would, since the need is so great. On the other hand, the Dodgers intend to give Nomar Garciaparra, fresh off the DL, a chance to show what he can do at the position before moving forward on any outside options.

So

It's the first inning in Vegas and Schmidt has already given up a triple and a HR.
