…and then who is the question 🙂
Got new-threaded.
…are you thinking of Ohman as an option?
By nellyjune on March 18, 2009 2:08 PM
Everyone is an option to me, I don’t have to pay him. 🙂
I never heard of him before. Before finding him in the baseball reference, I would have said he was an actor. From looking at the stats, he strikes out about 1 per inning and his strikeout-to-walk ratio is about 2 to 1. Not great, not terrible but better than most of the flotsam throwing the ball for us this spring. He’s been in hitter’s parks, so we can take that into account. We could use another lefty in the pen.

Good afternoon ITD boys and girls!
I figured that Kuroda-san would get the opening day nod! Now, come on Ned, go get Pedro! You know we don’t have much in the way of a 5th starter right now!
I was watching The Price is Right this morning! It was great to see our Boys in Blue! Gosh, it still upsets me that I didn’t make my way to Canter’s Deli. Aw, shucks… So how are my ITD friends today!
Well, I’ve got stuff to do! I’ll catch up with y’all later…
Thank you dodgereric for your response. Like you, I am willing to try anything because just by Josh’s comment…..I don’t think they have figured out the 5th spot yet, and I don’t blame them……..there really isn’t anybody at this point.
Well, I am outta here early…..first league game for Michael, and I’m not sure who’s pitching, but I certainly don’t want to miss it if it’s him. Good luck to Matt with hockey tonight!!! Talk to you later!!!
Hi and bye CP!!!
I was talking to a relative of a current Dodger about the WBC and how I would have liked to have seen more of Pedro. He said “Pedro will be here soon”.
Good afternoon everyone ~ crzblue, I hope that is a good sign! I’d love have Pedro on our team.
crzblue – I hope that relative’s word is better than Frank’s word. I still remember the quote in the paper during the whole Andrian Beltre thing that he said to a fan, “Don’t worry, you’ll have your third baseman.”
I hope so too. I am still bitter about Adrian. I booed him at Camelback Ranch.
for those of you who didn’t get to see price is right this morning, you can watch the full episode:
http://www.cbs.com/daytime/the_price_is_right/video/video.php?cid=559221502&pid=_6ggjdoW7rvkj7QKVSuCi4b99auCYoUd&category=recent&play=true
Sara ~ I did see it and the guys looked fantastic. I sure would have loved to win the Dodger Package grand prize..
i agree trublu! i would have loved to win that showcase.. the guy seriously underbid for it.. he should have bid higher since it had a car in the showcase too~
I know, Sara……….just the private box seats alone for 30 people was nearly what is bid was. That would be a blast to have one of those for us on ITD!
Well, we can cross Beimel off of our list for pitching. He’s signing with the Nationals.
http://latimesblogs.latimes.com/dodgerthoughts/2009/03/2009-dodger-pro.html
Not that I can go to an August 19th game because I believe it’s in the middle of my first week of school, but Andre should be the bobblehead to be named later. I understand he has his night for practice jerseys, but those are only for 14 and under. Not fair says this Ethieraholic!!!! Not that I mind Casey Blake getting one and Manny is well understood, but Andre played a pretty big part at the end of last season also.
I don’t think it’s fair to make an age limit on promotional giveaways, either, Nellyjune. They should be for everyone!
So, if you are listening, Josh, please tell the promotions people to include everybody!!
I almost forgot………WE NEED AN ANDRE ETHIER BOBBLEHEAD!!!!
Something for you baseball card enthusiasts.
http://www.truebluela.com/2009/3/18/801855/2009-topps-heritage
Dnell, those are some very nice baseball cards and I love the cartoons! Did you happen to see my thread on the dedication to Johhny Podres? I love that baseball card I posted with the cartoon. Podres looked like he had beautiful eyes.

.
GO DODGERS!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!
Good Morning ITD readers and writers!!!!
Happy Birthday dcollins!!!!!
Happy Birthday Clayton Kershaw!!!!
oooohhh!! Clayton’s 21 today too 🙂
Good morning ITD boys and girls!
Happy birthday dcollins! Happy birthday Kersh! Happy birthday to my brother today too! He’s turning 50 (that old man…)! Can you imagine – one year ago today (or would it be tomorrow? I don’t know) – I was in Japan!
This may be a short visit too, but I’m watching the NCAA tourney game this morning at 9 AM! My alma mater is playing! Yes, CSUN (I think ESPN knows them as CS Northridge) is playing Memphis this morning. I know, CSUN doesn’t stand a chance against a team like Memphis, but it’ll be exciting to watch anyways!
So how are my ITD friends this morning?
I think a few of our ITDers said that they’re going too, but I’ve got a ticket to the WBC on Saturday! My nephew got them. But it’s going to be my mom, my two nephews and myself going on Saturday! I couldn’t go to any other game. But it’ll be fun, and it’ll be great to be inside Dodger Stadium again!!!
Anyone here??? I’d like to have a short convo with someone before I leave at 9…
Good morning, CP. Hope you have a pleasant day. It will be fun for you to be inside Dodger Stadium……..I can’t wait until I have a chance to go.
Good morning ITD boys and girls!
Happy Bday DCollins! Tell us how you are celebrating!
Happy Bday Kershaw! Now your are of legal age!
.
Cpompe! I am so happy that CSUN is there! While going to CSULA I had a boyfriend that had gone to CSUN. I’ve been to that campus for plays, studying and some school game, oh and also when the Dodgers stopped there for a Caravan a few years back! I took a long lunch that day to go see the boys in Blue!.
Emma
http://crzblue.mlblogs.com/
Thx Tru! I can’t wait to go too! Did you see the WBC pics from the stadium on the picture gallery? It’s one thing to see them in pics here on the homepage, but I’m sure it’ll be something entirely different when I’m in the stadium! I just can’t wait!
Hey Emma! Great to see ya! Actually, I went back to your blog; I haven’t been there in a while. It was great the way you ran into Manny! I loved the comments under that thread! Even a Gnat fan has something good to say about a Dodger!!! 🙂
Well, I’ve gotta go. I’ll catch up with y’all later…
GO MATADORS!!!
Cpompe! Where are you sitting Saturday night? I can’t wait!!! I hope it does not rain.

Josh!!!
When we went to watch the Dodgers at the Milwaukee facility and they had fans (to fan yourself) as giveways I realized that there were no giveaways at Camelback Ranch. Only the people sitting in the $100 tickets got something and I understand that. correct me if I am wrong, but I don’t think I remember seeing any giveaways in the Spring Training schedule.
.
Are we going to have the Dodger trolley again?
thanks
emma
emma – interesting that there are no giveaways. In Vero, it seemed like the team would us leftovers from the year before as giveaways. Also, there was a 60 Years in Vero Pilsner giveaway as well. I figured that the team would be giving away a bunch of Inagural Season at McRanch stuff. Maybe it wasn’t in the budget?

Very nice first three innings by Kershaw.
That has too feel good….Way to go Clayton
Happy birthday, Clayton! Celebrate that home run!!!
Well, that was sweet – a homerun on his birthday!! Way to go Kersh!!!!!!!
Andre made a sliding catch and I missed it? LOL!!! We just turned it on in time to see Clayton’s homerun.
Mrs. Nelson’s class says “Yeah Andre!!”
Kersh sure looked good today.
Time to ice the arm down in the Corona bucket. Good job Clayton. Happy Birthday again 🙂
Kersh looks awesome!!!!
Heckuva great 21st birthday for young Clayton – solid pitching performance and a home run! Whoo hoo!

Hiya everybody.
Great outing for Kersh and an HR, WOOW
Atta Boy Russell 🙂
Need to get that bullpen straightened out.
Along with that 5th starter.
Paraphrasing Rick Monday: “We came into camp with 11 lefties trying to make the bullpen”….. really? Sounds like we’re really trying to find someone. Who are they? According to the active roster we have:
1 – Scott Elbert
2 – Hong-Chih Kuo
3 – Eric Stults
Let’s add in the guys on the 40-man:
1 – Scott Elbert
2 – Hong-Chih Kuo
3 – Eric Stults
4 – Victor Garate
5 – Brent Leach
6 – Greg Miller
Hmmm, only up to 6 lefties. I grant that I haven’t been paying a lot of attention, but I haven’t heard those 3 names much this spring. Oops, forgot those valuable NRIs:
1 – Scott Elbert
2 – Hong-Chih Kuo
3 – Eric Stults
4 – Victor Garate
5 – Brent Leach
6 – Greg Miller
7 – Carmen Cali
8 – Brian Mazone
9 – Jacobo Meque
10 – Stephen Randolph
11 – Erick Threets
OK, there’s your 11 candidates for the bully lefties. Kuo is the only major league pitcher among them and he’s always pitching with one leg in the operating room. It looks to me that Ned put all his eggs in the Elbert/Stults basket.
Beimel signed for $2 million
Dennys Reyes signed $3 million for 2 years
It doesn’t seem to me that signing one of those two to a contract would have dented the budget too much, in contrast with the stability one of them would have given the bullpen.
IMO.
Dodgereric ~ Your opinion is right on the mark! We are in serious trouble. I don’t know if there is anything we can do at this point……..or, I should say, anything they will do.
I sense that you’re not completely happy with Ned’s choices there Eric.
LOL!!!!
Great pitching by Kersh today!!!
LMAO!!!!! really? ….you think so enchanted? – LOL!!!!
I’ll bet Joe’s not happy either!
Okay – those of you watching the entire game. It has Andre getting caught stealing and a pick off at 1st. Did that actually happen? He was 2-4 with a run. I saw the single and caught stealing, but he couldn’t have scored a run if he was picked off at 1st.
He was picked off……..then tried to make it to second base. It wasn’t caught stealing. He did go 2 -4.
“Left-hander Eric Milton and right-hander Claudio Vargas, front-runners in competition for the fifth starter job…”
More frightening words were never spoken.
Ouch. Reminds me of Tomko and Hendrickson. It’s going to be painful every fifth game until July 31st, when either (a) we trade or sign for a real #5 SP or (b) McDonald has been conditioned and ready to go every 5th game.
Can we have every 5th day off, please?!
Sorry Tru, by my count we need a 5th starter about 16 times before the trading deadline. Not pretty.
With front runners like that, you know how bad the rest of the pack must be.
Not a very pretty picture, is it?
Good evening ITD
I’m taking a break from studying to add a few things here.\
I heard on the news that only 1/2 the tickets have been sold for the championship game on Monday. So anyone who wants a ticket for the WBC final go buy it before the semifinals. Apparently everyone is waiting to see who will be playing what day. The U.S. plays on Sunday. Iit will be decided who they play between Japan and South Korea.
Cpompe1 where are your seats? I think I have my old season seat in section 47 row A seat 1 so look for me.
I met Milton during ST. He is absolutely gorgeous. I know his pitching was pretty bad though but he is very nice and did sign a few autographs.
Thanks Sara for letting me know how to watch that mar 18 price is right. I found it when it was half over since I was in Arizona at the time and the tv schedule is different.
Here in Southern California, everyone is talking about Obama. All I know is that my plane touched down in Long Beach a few moments before his and therefore we had to sit on our plane until the Marine helicopters flew him off to orange county. I could see Air Force One out of my plane window. All I could think of was that I had as much to do as he did and I needed to get out of that plane!!
Happy happy Birthday Dcollins. I hope your day was wonderful and how nice you are on a kind of vacatioon.
Also Happy Birthday Clayton. I talked to him a few times at ST and he seems a very mature, focused young man. How lucky we are that he is a Dodger.
I am now coming back to earth. No more ST untiil next year. What a rude awakening to have to go to class on my return.
Anyway…hi Nellyjune, Dodger4life, trublu, Dodgereric, Kali, Sara, Dcollins, Enchanted, Cpompe1, will write later. Have a good evening everyone.
Damn I can’t believe I missed a Kershaw homerun and does anyone have video of it? Happy 21th Bday Kershaw and you and my mother have the same bday how cool is that? My youngest brother bday was yesterday.
Anyone see that interview that Manny said after he wanted to retired he wanted to play cricket?
How did I forget and happy bday dcollins.
Yeah thanks Sara for the link and I can’t believe I missed it but I was sick and really didn’t want to get out of my bed yesterday.
Good evening ITD boys and girls!
I’m glad that the Matadors gave Memphis a run for their money this morning! Too bad that they couldn’t be a “Cinderella” team in the tourney, but they did well. I’m proud of them! We’ve always got next year!
Crzblue & heartruss – You two were asking earlier where I’m sitting on Saturday. My nephew got us tickets on the top deck, but in the very front row, right behind home plate. So, take the Reserved Section to around row M or N and then look up towards the sky! That’s where I understand our seats are!
Hey Gang!!! Just a couple of thoughts to toss around. I think Ned missed the boat (again) by not signing Biemel for around 2M. I thought he missed it by letting Garland get away for 6M to a division rival. I am also somewhat disappointed that he hasn’t traded Phew. I can’t condemn him too much for not finding a trade for Phew as I don’t think there are any takers at any price. He is pretty much worthless. Sorry Amy!! I do however condemn the original signing as it will go down as one of the worst deals in history. We won’t even mention the Schidt debacle.
What year in recent memory have we not needed a 5th starter? Getting Halliday and moving the other 4 one step back is a pipe dream. If he’s available, he’d cost too much. To my knowledge, he isn’t. If he is, he’s probably a free-agent-to-be and a year-long rental. Pedro’s the best out there right now. If we don’t get somebody from outside, all we have is hope that one of the usual suspects separates themselves from the pack in the next couple of weeks…Good to see Kuo and Wade finally starting to get their sea legs. Brox will be back soon. Kershaw is looking better and better with each outing. I’m looking forward to the real games starting. GO DODGERS!!!!!
I hope Ned is gone after this year. He just doesn’t have the tools.
I really think Ned is a lame duck. I believe Frank and maybe JoJo to some extent have had more to do with the recent signings. I am sure that Nud doesn’t have Carte Blanc!!!
Jhall ~ I agree with everything you are saying……I’d go so far as to get rid of YouGnomewho even if we have to eat his salary. By having him on the team, we are preventing somebody better for filling in as the 4th outfielder.
.
Seesky ~ I think we need Pedro rught now!!!
Hey Trumom, how’ya doin?!!!! Great to see you. You too Sky!!!
Oops, sorry, right now!
Jhall ~ I’ve been glued to the TV set today….watching Dodger baseball and March Madness….very maddening, indeed!
LMTO!!! Good for you Tru!!!!
I’m addicted to the whole “Madness” experience! It’s one of the most exciting times of the year.
I agree Trumom, it is very exciting.
Trying to find a 5th starter now is like trying to buy a last minute Christmas gift on Christmas Eve…..Really nothing more to say about JP that hasn’t already been said a thousand times before. Something in the current situation will need to change for anything to happen,
So True Sky!!!!
I”m looking for Utah and Utah State to do well in the Tournament. As for BYU…..well, 2 out of 3 ain’t bad.
I’ve got my computer set up right in front of the TV set. From now until the World Series is over, I can’t miss any games. Lucily for me, it’s a laptop! lol
LOL Trumom!! Enjoy it!!! Sky, I hope your teams do well and you enjoy a great tournament.
Damn, my hubby just got home……I suppose I should go feed him. Be back in a jiffy!
Hey jhall!! How are you doing sir?
Hey Seesky too!!! Wow!!! Haven’t seen you for a while either. Good to see you as well 🙂
Hey Nell’!! Doing great, Merci!! How are you mon amie?
Evening, Nelly. Good to see you, too!! So, how are everyone’s picks and (or) favorite teams doing in the “Madness”? I was gone most of the day and didn’t get to follow it much.
Wally is that you??
Hey Sky & Nells and TruMom wherever she went (husbands are pesky critters.)
I am doing great!!! I know the team’s not (pitching and all), but I am ready for the real season to start. I just got my Dodger Magazine today, and it’s got me excited about the regular season starting.
Hey Beav!!! Wait a minute, yeah, its me!!!!
How are you doing my friend?
Super Beav, and yourself my brother!!!!
All you guys need is one more, and you’ll have the whole Cleaver clan in the house!
Hey Nells, I’ve got another song cued up and ready to go, but I’m witholding its release until the right time (and the fact that I’m on my crappy laptop. It’s more of a craptop.)
Doing well Wally. I’m inching closer to your time zone.
C’mon Dad/Eric/Ward/Chevelle. We need dad to come on to sort things out and put them in the proper perspective
Good Evening enchanted!!!!
seesky – I have done a few bracket challenges, and I have different ones on each, at least making it to the final four anyway. I didn’t see any of the games today. I made a huge bracket challenge for my classroom, but they aren’t picking until it’s down to the sweet 16…… 64 names is too much to choose from. They like the number 16 (really no reason why – LOL!!!) so they were okay with it.
How’s that Beav?!!! You traveling over this way?
Can’t wait enchanted!!!! You never disappoint 🙂
Yeah, nelly, the team’s got it’s question marks just like every team and every other year but, in a way, that’s the fun in it. It’s like reading a novel and commenting on the twists and turns in the plot and the characters as we go along. And, at the end, in September, we find out how the story ends.
Maybe if you yell loud enough Ward Dear will hear you Wally – LOL!!!!!
Down near Houston for a few days Wally. ‘Bout as far east as I get nowadays.
How ’bout Wally ‘n me get into some sort of mischief mom?? That’ll get Dad’s attention.
I hope so Nelly. Beav, you’ve got to get to Ohio someday. It rocks!!!
Just ask Ian Hunter. “Cleveland Rocks”!!!!!!
Maybe that will work Theodore. Shhh……..I think he is reading a book Matt gave him.
Been to Ohio once when I wa a little kid. Toledo. Had some sort of distant relative there.
I want to go and see Grady play 🙂
I’ll bet me and Beav could create some king of controversy. LOL!!! How’ah bout’ah my’ah boy Phew’s Mama. She not’ah pleased wiff’ah da’ playin’ time for her little Juanpy!!!!
I didn’t talk like that then though (wa???)
Go Mudhens!!!!!!!!
This is how Wally always got the Beav in trouble…
LMAO!!!!!!!!!!!
I know you’re all sitting there wondering when Beav is going to take the bait…
LMAO!!! Maybe if I laugh loud enough Ward Dear will hear…………and it’s quite possible given the circumstances here at times.
Beav needs more moom influence to really get up to stride. LMTO!!!!
Moon influence!!! Oops!!!
More?…………I don’t know if he needs more – LMAO!!!!!!!!!
….Beav does quite well with none at all – LMAO!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!
Or under the influence, which could be arranged if necessary.
LMAO!!!!!!!
LMTO!!!! Gettin’ late here gang. Gonna hit the rack. Hope you all have a great evening/night. Catch you down the road. Hopefully tomorrow night for the game. Good Night and God Bless you all. Thanks!!!!!!!!!!!!
Night Wally. Take care.
Good Night Wally!!!! I don’t know where your father is, but I will be sure to tell him you checked in. Take Care 🙂
Good night, jhall . Good to hear from you again. I’m checking out, too. Have a great Friday, everyone!!!
You as well Sky!!
Well Nells, I’d better skedaddle too. I’m supposed to get up and makes sales calls this morning. Catch you later.
Good night enchanted/Beav and Seesky!!! Take Care and have a wonderful day tomorrow.
Seesky – I do have Utah State picked through to the Sweet 16 on one of my brackets. My husband was a UNLV grad and has been to Utah State a few times watching the Runnin’ Rebels back in the day when they made the tourney a few times with Tarkanian.
Good morning ITD, Dodgerfaithful
.
Good game from the Boys in Blue yesterday. Clayton pitched well, Russell continued to hit the ball, and X-Paul finds yet another way to get on base.

UCLA won yesterday!! USC plays today at 4:20 PT… GO TROJANS!!!

~DODGER BLUE THRU AND THRU~
****ETHIERAHOLIC FOREVER****
Gooooooooood morning, ITD!
Good news! The Dodgers know that they need pitching:
http://losangeles.dodgers.mlb.com/news/article.jsp?ymd=20090319&content_id=4029222&vkey=news_la&fext=.jsp&c_id=la
Bad news: This article is as empty as my 31K.
And, down at the end of a nice article on Kersh’s birthday are these notes:
Interesting: “The Dodgers called up pitcher Josh Lindblom, 21, to Camelback Ranch for a closer look, just as it did a year ago with Kershaw”
Not surprised: “When Torre was asked if he had heard any more regarding speculation that the Dodgers might try to obtain veteran pitcher Pedro Martinez, he replied: “No,” and did not elaborate”
WHY?: “Left-hander Claudio Vargas is scheduled to start tonight against the Kansas City Royals at their spring home in Surprise, Ariz.”
Dodgereric ~ maybe after Vargas pitches tonight, they will get Pedro!
Oh……my……. goodness!!! It’s going to be a long game tonight, isn’t it?
Good morning ITD’ers.
.
I hope all is well with everybody.
.
Thanks for the Birthday wishes from everyone. I had a nice day with Wifey.
.
Great game yesterday. Kersh hitting a homerun on his 21st. He also from what I read had a great game on the mound, which is what we are really going to need. So that is a great sign!!
.
Well my stay is short as my mom is really sick so we are taking her to the hospital.
.
For those that pray please say one for her when you have a second. She’s not deathly but just older and really sick and when your older and really sick things can happen.
.
Take care…
Also for those that get MLB Network on TV the game is scheduled to be televised live at 6:05.
Dodgereric! 31K did you mean 401K. I suffered on that too…
.
good morning ITD boys and girls! Super excited about going to see WBC finals and that is our own park!!
.
cpompe! I am in the Top deck aisle 3, last row!
USA!!
USA!!
USA!!
dc, you and your mother and your family are in my thoughts and prayers. I hope everything goes well.
Hi emma! Yeah, maybe it’s back to a 41K by now. I’m scared to look. 😦
Forgot to include the link to the Kershaw story I referenced above.
http://www.latimes.com/sports/la-sp-dodgers-fyi20-2009mar20,0,1157779.story
dcollins – thoughts and prayers, thoughts and prayers 🙂
Dcollins ~ I’m saying a prayer for you mother, too. Be strong.
I will pray for your mother as well dcollins. Have faith.
If you watch mlbtv, the 30 Clubs in 30 Days is going to Glendale to talk about our Los Angeles Dodgers. It will be on tonight at 12:00am EST.
New thread, ya’ll……
Dodgereric – I just read the article about the Dodgers finally realizing they need pitching. Couldn’t they have just read what ITD had been saying all along. We even gave them suggestions on who to go after, but noooo………had to go the cheap pvl route. Well, they got what they paid for I guess, with a very few exceptions.
