Well not sure if haren is sick or not but another f plus outing walking the pitcher with two hits than allowing a base hit to score two runs :(, and allowing 4 walks he just looks plans flat latly when we need him the most were in serious danger of losing this division lead we have got to win the next two period whatever it takes!!!!

Haren has a tendency to slow down nearing the end of the season.

And I believe that Webb getting hit hard in the ribs with that comebacker has altered his delivery. He's pitching in pain.

Randy and Davis are inconsistent.

And Melvin wasted a year by not developing Scherzer as a Major League starter.

And we know how the 7-8-9 inning relievers have come apart.

Suddenly a pitching staff that looked golden if only we made the playoffs is coming apart.

Thank heavens for DVR. I can watch two hours in 5 minutes. When a run is given up by the DBacks, I just hit FF until the DBacks score. Generally, that takes me to the end of the game, with a few exceptions. Tonight I got to the 7th and turned it off. It was worth about the 5 minutes of my time - about the same effort the team put forth.

:bang:

Haren pitches like this in September, usually (7-13, 4.46 ERA lifetime). It is beyond frustrating watching the guys that got them to this point fall apart like this. Plus, they usually play poorly when ESPN is covering the game. The best thing about this grotesque display of baseball is that it's over. If the Dodgers win Saturday, they will be in first place, but you all know that. Maybe this time, they will lose the first and win the other two, the reverse of the last time they played against LA. They better.

This is the karma of having this postseason ticket promotion too early...starting today, you can sign up to get in a drawing for the right to purchase NLDS tickets in a few weeks. Kinda premature, wouldn't ya say?

Randy will miss his next start with shoulder inflammation, Scherzer will take his place.

we don't deserve this division no one on offense is trying we just try to hit a hr everytime, none of our pitchers can get key outs man what a horrible ending stretch we have had. You think with Webb and Haren we would have a good shot to win one game but sure isn't looking like it this team is starting to make me sick :(.

It's the perfect storm of suck. Our top 2 starters are terrible right now, and the offense is (still) really bad.

Yet, after all that, we're still tied for 1st in the loss column. The Dodgers went from losing 8 straight to winning 7 straight, so this crazy (bad) division could turn at any point.

Just win today!
