Eric Karros joins KCAL team

In case you missed it, Eric Karros has joined KCAL as part of the Dodgers’ pregame show. This is great news for Dodger fans, who will get to hear Eric’s insights throughout the season. For those of you who have heard him on ESPN, you know that he’s very good at analyzing the game and he’s a true professional.

As a player, you could always tell that Eric would be a good broadcaster someday and it didn’t take long for him to wind up back with the team he knows best. We’re glad he’s back in the family and that he’ll be around quite a bit this season.

    It is certainly great to have Eric Karros back with the Dodgers! I agree that he will have a great new career in broadcasting, and I look forward to the contributions he will make to our 2006 team! Go EK!

    Way to go E.K., It is great to have you back where you belong. I just wish we could
    bring back another sorely missed member of our Dodger family, Ross Porter. Ross’ voice was almost as synonomous

    with the Dodgers as that of the great Mr. Scully. What I wouldn’t give to hear “would you like to take a shot at

    Dodger trivia?”, and the never forgetable “Mmmm Hmmm!”

    I have been trying to get this info. out for a long time, Eric Karros is the icon picture for MLB, just like Jerry West is the icon for NBA basketball. It,s easy to find out ,just go back to the baseball arcives on channel 5 or 11 or 13 whichever station was sponsoring the dodger games then. It was when he just starting playing for the DODGERS. Somebody please look this up, I think it a tribute to Eric and the DODGERS if this is prpven (and this info I’m giving is correct I’ve been behind this for all this time. gusrenterias@yahoo.com

    Where is that thread the last time I posted here? It was STT talking about the offense that scored around 20+ runs that night in RC I think that was the farm system and I was talking about how baseball reference listed all the draft picks and all the stats those draft picks accomplish in the major.

    How lucky can the Giants get? Since Bochy get ejected they scored 5 runs and that rookie Crawford hit a GS.

      Shad, most of the threads we’ve been using are from Feb, 06. The last one was Frank Chats or something like that.

    That terrible 1 pitch from Adams and a GW HR’s from Moose after the Padres just tied it up in the top of that 9th.

    San Antone is a GREAT party town! Ranks up there with Austin. OK to visit, but I couldn’t stand the humidity for too long. At least it’s dry here with humidity less than 10% most of the time.

      It wasn’t too bad for me since I’m used to high humidity here in the summer also. Always cool on the River Walk!!!

    Draw a straight line from El Paso to DFW. It’s just about half way.

    I know I’m an inning late but damn Ross got thrown out by Fielder. Where is the Giants defense where they known for giving up gift runs?

    Looks like the crowd is better than we had hoped for…however, it is the first game of the series and, the guys have been gone for a while. Still, not what you’d expect for a Friday night.

      Vasquez have better career numbers vs us than his numbers this season not a big surprise to see us having 2 hits.

    Can’t say as I’ve ever stopped in Odessa VL, or Midland either for that matter, though I did stop in Pecos to see the buffalo. Been in Big Springs and Abileen too. So what did I miss by not stopping in Odessa?

        Proving you don’t have to have a huge Yankees type payroll if you have somebody at the helm that knows talent and believes in young guns vs. old hasbeens.

    Can’t pin this one on Garland so far!! The offense needs to get the bats out of their asses!!!

      This suck Elbert was drafted at a SP and we’re using him as a reliever and since his called up he’s been very impressive than the prior 30 games combined going back to 2008. He was a good hitting pitcher in college that would’ve also made him a waste in the bullpen.

    Ever think of how much better off this franchise would have been had Ned not signed anyone named Juan?

    As much as we don’t want Gibbons on this team I would’ve had done that even though Choate is LH.

    Don’t make Rubby a reliever is really a waste that he should probably be a SP for us in 2013.

    I love Tolleson and Armes numbers so far. We have some good pitching talent just hope they are not going to be bust. You can easy fill the 3rd-5th spots and Broxton/Kuo spot in the bullpen.

      Oh yeah and probably late bloomer Guerra from that 2004 draft class. I don’t understand why some of the expert said our minor leaguer suck when we have good talent down there and how do they ranked the system. Is that the entire minor league system or the double A and triple A combined? I could understand we ranked low bases on the higher minor league system and not those rookie one.

    You ever notice that it still takes the other team screwing up for us to get a win now and then?

    Not that he would care a tinker’s damn, and not that his chances to hang on have improved much, but if he manages to stick, I will switch to the Angels.

    This news should galvanize the fan boycott a little more.

    I guess now we’re living 2 weeks at a time until something happens one way or the other. Manny has a $6 million payment due in June. Whether it’s the first or second payment, I don’t know. What with the June 22 court date looming, this is all going to make mid-late June very interesting.

    Tonight’s attendance will no doubt include the dogs allowed in the RF pavillion. I see they will charge the dogs the regular ticket price. Will they get a doggy bone too?

    Other than dogs, let’s keep the SEATS EMPTY.

    When considering the attendance, the season ticket holders don’t really count for much, other than money they spend at the stadium once they’re there. Their ticket money has already been spent or borrowed against way back when they paid for their tickets. The cash flow is getting low any way you look at it.

    It doesn’t surprise me that Frank could make one payroll, maybe even a few more. With all the outstanding loans he has, he has to be paying millions in loan charges every month. I wouldn’t be surprised if he’s falling behind on some of those in order to make the payroll, because none of those lenders can take over the team right away. My suggestion would be that he don’t pay Manny – f*** the idiot for trusting Frank on a deferred payment contract to begin with. Of course, I never liked Manny any better than I did Frank.

    NEW YORK – Musician Gil Scott-Heron, who helped lay the groundwork for rap by fusing minimalistic percussion, political expression and spoken-word poetry on songs such as “The Revolution Will Not Be Televised,” died Friday at age 62.

        Jansen was at 50% and Monsterious and Elbert 100% on 2/2. Link was 1/0 which was 100% and McDonald 2/1 which was 50%.

    • nedsajerk

      We had the best bullpen in 2009 that average was around 29% and McDonald was the only one that had a 50% ratio.
