it’s baseball time!  Can’t wait to get the 2008 season kicked off.  I think the Dodgers made moves to put them in a position to be competitive in the NL.  The west is by far the toughest division in baseball though.  Hopefully the breaks go the Dodgers way and they can take the pennant.

In news that’s usually always positive at this time in camp, pitching coach Rick Honeycutt has detected a mechanical flaw in Esteban Loiaza’s motion.  Which means he’s been sucking in camp.  Hopefully this makes him not suck, but I doubt it.  Jason Schmidt seems to be recovering nicely, but I will wait until they put the speed gun on him for my own judgement.  Sounds like Pierre will be the left fielder, so instead of guys going 1st to 3rd on him they will be going 2nd to home.  He blows.  Hopefully Torre has the gonads to stand up to management and say they made a mistake and put Either out there before to late in the season.  There are few reports out on Andruw Jones reporting being fat.  Hopefully it comes off before the season.  On another note; it sounds like Mike Easler is doing a fine job as the new hitting coach, I just wish things had worked out with Donnie Baseball! 

Well, everybody is 0-0 and we have as good a chance as any in the west!

Go Dodgers!
