Baez.

I guess he's the Dodger closer for right now, and with the way he pitched tonight, it's not something the Dodgers need to worry about. Hong-Chih Kuo could be a good setup guy, because he has pretty good control. The Dodger starting pitching will be the downfall of this team, and Tomko isn't very good. At all.

The injury situation for LA is not good right now. Kent has an elbow problem that he's playing through, Furcal has a messed up shin, and Nomar is Nomar. If Drew stays healthy (yeah right), the Dodgers can be a dangerous team.

I have no doubt that they'll win the division, but at this point they don't look like a team that can win a round in the playoffs. It's still early, so there's plenty to see from this team. Including injuries.

The Phillies don't look like a very good team. They don't have the pitching, and for whatever reason, their hitting isn't there either. I don't see any reason to worry about the hitting, because it'll come around, but the pitching situation is bleak. If Philly doesn't turn it around quick, Manuel's going to be the fall guy. Looks like it may be another long season in Philadelphia, and I know exactly how it feels.

I won't post on Lakers/Suns tonight, mainly because I have no desire to see LA get beat up by a clearly superior team. 30 point win for Phoenix tonight.
