    Lance is a road liability

    What was up with the Lindor AB? Did Hinch have him walked on purpose?

    We've got this formula figured out though:

    3 in the first
    no-hit 'em the next 5
    score a run here and there
    tie it in the 9th, win it in the 10th

    "It's a great plan, Walter, it's like a swiss ****ing watch"

    All right. Bottom of the third. Hest of the order up.

    It is hard to judge, and there are definitely differing views on how to handle it. Again gave my opinion.

    Just looked up Kershaw's last two starts.
    4/19 7 IP up to 4-2 97 pitches and pulled. Why? He couldn't have gone one more inning? I mean he "only" threw 97 pitches.

    4/25 7 IP up 2-1 90 pitches and pulled. Again why? He couldn't give them another inning having thrown only 90 pitches.

    Maybe....just maybe...the Dodgers have bigger goals than letting their three time CY Young award winner get a complete game in APRIL!!!

    Is this the part where I freak out and say that we suck and that the season is over?

    The Puerto Rican Carloses are really stinking it up.

    Is anyone else seeing this changeup Lance threw a lot of in the third? 90 mph with drop...goodness.

    McCullers is a full bloom ace if he can throw that change up like that. Curve isn't on today. Throw the change. Nasty.

    We'll be lucky to get another hit off of Bauer, much less score a run.

    Don't tell him that they let Kershaw throw 116 pitches on 4/21 of last season.

    Gurriel is hitting like Altuve.
