It wasn't a slide. It was a takedown. Utley waited until he was practically on top of the bag before basically flopping down on the ground. And looking back at his history, it's not the fiirst time Utley has done something similar.
 
**** Utley and **** the Dodgers.

Not sure I was serious, but since we're going down that path, yeah, I could see those guys getting you an ok reliever or SP depth if you need it.  I don't really envy Eppler right now, he's got about a thousand different holes to plug, everything from 2B, 3B, UT, LF, RP to figuring out how to assemble a good rotation while still using Weav and Wilson because they're being paid 20 million next year.  I mean I know what I'd do (only start Weav at home, Skaggs on road as 5th SP, and trade CJ at end of ST, replace him with Tropeano), but as it turns out, the Angels don't answer my letters insisting I know how to fix everything.  

Epilepsy jokes are always funny.

Dude had a 1.201 OPS with RISP.
 
That means he didn't have too many chances to drive anyone in and the rest of this team sucks balls.

You must not watch much baseball, then.

D-Backs are doing their part, but in the most important game of the year, Scioscia has decided to mismanage this game worse than any other.
If not for the stupid shift that never should've happened, this would be a tie game, then he removes Richards who is on a roll in favor of Bedrosian, who screwed things up the second he toed the rubber.

Maybe like Chuck, I need more bourbon before this makes sense.

Same.
This is a fun team to watch again. I hope they can grab that last wild card spot to give us a shot at continuing to ride this hot streak well into October.
