Title: Dodgers 2 games out of the wild card...
Post by: Skindiana bon3z on September 10, 2003, 11:54:14 AM
with 19 games left, you think they'll make the playoffs....I believe they'll make it...only 2 games out and phillies have to play marlins 6 games, if they split those games and dodgers keep winning, I think they have a hell of a chance...

The Philles will win the Wild Card

I believe the dodgers have a great chance, I think they'll win the wild card...I can ALMOST guarantee it....let's say the Phillies lose 3 outta the last 6 vs. Florida and dodgers keep winning then Dodgers will be ahead of Philadelphiaand like a game behind florida...the dodgers have a great chance of winning the wild card

Out of the 3 the Philles are the best team and their starting to play like it, however most baseball guys say that it's Arizona's to loss because of their pitching and hitting.

Actually the Dodgers have the deepest pitching staff outta the 3 and have won 10 outta their last 12 games and 5 straight....dodgers would have the deepest team if they played Robin Ventura, Jeromy Burnitz, and Fred Mcgriff...these guys need to be in the game but have been sitting the bench a lot...

Dodger play the Giants   6 times
and they play the Padres  7  times

these are two teams that for the past few years have been a bitch to beat

if they handl the Padres and Giants...Dodgers will make it

Giants won't be using their all star players, they've already made the playoffs...so you won't be seeing Jason Schmidt pitching....

Arizona has Shilling and Johnson, most baseball experts say that those 2 will get hot soon and when those 2 are hot no team can have better pitching.

That being said the Philles will win the Wild Card.

The Dodgers on the Other hand have: Kevin Brown, Hideo Nomo, Odalis Perez, Kaz Ishii, Andy Ashby (although he has sucked this year)

They said this about 2 weeks ago. Plus Johnson and Schilling have been injuried for most of the year. And this prediction is coming from ESPN's Peter Gammons, who is the best baseball guy around, and I rather take his advice about Arizona rather then some Dodger fan's advice about LA. The only opinion in LA that really matters when it comes to baseball is Vin Scully, and pretty much no one else.

Dude, I'm not telling you to take advice from me, I'm just stating my opinion...I could give a fuck what you think or believe....It's been said by baseball experts that Dodgers have the deepest pitching staff...so whats your fucking point?

Dodgers can send a pitcher for 5 innings and the bullpen can handle the rest

check out the bullpen
Paul Quantril
Guillermo Mota
Paul Shuey
Erig Gagne

combined these guys have an ERA of...1.84!!!

now the 5 man rotation consists of
Kevin Brown
Hideo Nomo
Odalis Perez
Wilson Alvarez
Andy Ashby (5.84 ERA) their ERA is 3.70!!
and right now they are not using Ashby n their rotation
and Edwin Jackson started his first game this season and beat Randy Johnson.

This yearthe Dodgers have the BEST pitching staff...even if Randy andCurt would be healthy...the other 3 pitchers dont hang
