2015 Los Angeles Dodgers Thread.

Yes 2015 started for the Dodgers today.

On the heels of Ned Colleti's failure to strengthen a suspect bullpen at the trading deadline he was pushed aside in favor of the boy wonder in Tampa bay, Andrew Friedman. The architect of great success in Tampa even when confronted with minimal payroll realities.

 

Friedman was given the title President of Baseball Operations while Colletti was relegated to a "Senior Advisor" position.

Friedman will hand pick his own GM.

Meanwhile the idiot Don Mattingly's contract expires in 2015 coincidentally with Joe Maddon's in Tampa.

Hate the idea of Mattingly steering the ship one more year but will hope he is shown the door ASAP.

 

Whereas I would prefer a Manager that comes from the Dodger system I've golfed with MIke Scioscia (Who I really wanted to come home) and an ex Dodger Billy Ashley and there seems to be quite a bit of dislike for Tommy Lasorda. Go figure.

Can't wait to see how it unfolds.

 

Go Blue!

I read an article today that Corey Seager may be the fulltime SS and let Hanley Ramirez test FA. I think this move plus getting rid of one of the OF would be great for this team.

 

I also read a rumor about a trade of Puig for Stanton. Miami cannot afford Stanton's salary and Puig is locked in at a modest salary for the next 4-5 years. I would be all over this in a heartbeat. I can only imaging an OF comprised of Stanton, Kemp, Crawford, Pederson.

Interesting, only way I'd be in favor of re-signing Hanley is if he cheerfully agrees to move to 3rd base. He's too weak at SS.

 

The Puig trade is interesting....hmmmmm.

      The Bryce Young "Game Winning Drive" narrative needs to end

      By GoobyPls · Posted

      I agree with OP notion, QBs always get credited for game winning drives even if they do minimal. Just last night Caleb got credited for a GE drive when they basically ran the ball the whole drive and only had to go 36 yards.   And there are drives where Bryce could of had a game winning drive if not for a Legette drop vs Philly or a Chubba fumble vs Tampa

      You are actually, genuinely comparing Bryce to Jimmy fuging Pickles? Jimmy accounted for 3 touchdowns in his 10 starts in 2010. In Bryce’s 10 games post benching last year, he accounted for 20 touchdowns. Jimmy threw three touchdowns in 2010. Three. Bryce has thrown 10 touchdowns through 6 games. He is currently on track to throw for 3300 yards, 28 touchdowns and 14 interceptions. Wtf are we even talking about anymore. I mean seriously

      Tepper? The guy that directs the coaches towards goals that he set for them… that guy. He is the one.    I don’t think he ever was going to be expelled from class, they had him come in for garbage time maybe the 2nd week he was benched.  I will say this. People said he wasn’t under pressure the last part of the year when he did better, but he was fighting for his career and that’s pressure. And he saved his career too. I don’t reject him for those kinds of things I reject him for the physical things. I have always brought it down to he has slim margin for error and has to be perfect. People with the tool set have a little fatter margin for error. Why make it harder on yourself? Got nothing to do with hating him.  I am no statistician but game that margin thing out a lot and see how that works.
