Mattingly on Matt Carpenter: "I'm thinking Stan Musial is somewhere rolling around in that body."
So there's a clip when this is relayed to Carpenter in the post-game and he gives a nice "gosh that's flattering" answer. But right before it you hear Lackey say "siiick". Kind of funny.

@truebluelaDon Mattingly keeps saying, "This gives us the best chance to win today" over and over again. Like he's trying to convince himself

i'll be disappointed if there's no giants/dodgers series but at the same time, half a dozen parking lot murders will probably be avoided

@molly_knightYadi worked Puig like a marionette last post-season, and Puig knew it. He's in his head again.@ProductiveOuts"Just feel like mentally we feel like we have to give Yas a break." Mattingly on the KLAC pregame show

@KenTremendousWell, it makes sense. I mean Puig led the team in OPS for the season, sure, but look at his last 12 at bats! #Mattingly

Has anyone read the Alan Licht book? I leafed through it a couple times (and enjoyed it!), but never pulled the trigger on it.

@robneyer oh, and by the way, Shelby Miller throws a ton of fastballs and Puig is one of the Dodgers' best fastball hitters (Ethier isn't)
― son of a lewd monk (Dr Morbius), Tuesday, 7 October 2014 21:10 (nine years ago) link
10 pitches, 10 fastballs in the 1st
― mookieproof, Tuesday, 7 October 2014 21:11 (nine years ago) link
That last one was...wobbly.

cardinals basically taking two strikes in each at-bat, kershaw at 30 pitches in two innings
― mookieproof, Tuesday, 7 October 2014 21:39 (nine years ago) link
The strikeouts are nice, but yeah, the meter's running.
― clemenza, Tuesday, 7 October 2014 21:42 (nine years ago) link
Still, so far this is giving me the impression its working.
― Van Horn Street, Tuesday, 7 October 2014 22:17 (nine years ago) link
How could the Cardinals let that one pass? Obviously a foul ball. (I don't think the Dodgers would have won an appeal on the pick-off, though.)
― clemenza, Tuesday, 7 October 2014 22:38 (nine years ago) link
94 pitches--"low-stress," they'd probably argue in the booth, but I'd be stressed. Maybe Mattingly will leave him out for the 7th and 8th if nobody reaches base.
― clemenza, Tuesday, 7 October 2014 23:13 (nine years ago) link
Ethier w/ 2 walks, that aint hay
― son of a lewd monk (Dr Morbius), Tuesday, 7 October 2014 23:24 (nine years ago) link
Pull him out, Mattingly.

I'll resist the second-guess. I'm watching, and even though every conceivable indication says to pull him, I'm thinking, "He can get this guy."
― clemenza, Tuesday, 7 October 2014 23:31 (nine years ago) link
considering the bullpen and considering the lefty hitter, yeah
but still

matt adams is a tub of goo btw
you should celebrate him as a 'bad body' success (also he is a surprisingly capable fielder)
maybe not in the same way as anthony recker tho
― mookieproof, Tuesday, 7 October 2014 23:47 (nine years ago) link
what lost opportunities did i miss, besides Ethier getting nailed off third?

That was funny. Generally pitchers take a few steps before they underhand-toss to first.

yeah but did you see how he made it to second from first on that single? #clutch

@BenLindbergh Mattingly pulled up his roster page, set PA minimum to 300, and sorted by descending wRC+ before deciding to PH with Turner instead of Puig

I think the Dodgers really missed an opportunity this year. That lineup is only going to be a year older next season.

It's kind of the same with the Angels, that club could also get old quick.
at least they have those bullpens!
I'm happy for KM and you other nice Card fans, miserable for the rest of us.
