Utlimately, it’s going to come down to how they do in the playoffs, but the Dodgers made the right move to to give Greinke all that cash. He’s pitching injured in year 1 of 6 with the DBacks.

“Rich Hill will be pitching as early as next weekend.” Ha! This is like the Padres and their “Tyson Ross is starting a rehab assignment next week” that they’ve been doing for like three months now. I bet Hill and Ross don’t see another inning this year.

Yeah, a shoulder injury and blisters, pretty much the same thing.
Anyway on McCarthy, describing what’s going on with him in his last two starts as a control issue is kind of an understatement. His fastballs were as wild as anything you will see in the major leagues.

McCarthy’s sudden control problems kinda reminds me of a case of the “yips” along the lines of Steve Blass of many years ago. At the time he was one of the best control pitchers in the game and just lost it, not unlike McCarthy. Here’s hoping its just a hip.

Who’d have thought that McCarthy would end up on the DL again? Kinda like “the Mendoza line”, they should just rename it “The McCarthy List”.

And now he’s back on the DL

LOL what a freaking loser Anderson is. 15.8 million for one inning of 45.00 ERA ball. Way to bet on yourself, Brett. The problem with the so called “injury bug” this year relates to the front office and its affinity to bargain shop for players with substantial injury histories. Hope Clayton is healthy and ready to go soon, the rotation (Maeda aside) is a disaster without him.

Ya what a loser, why’d he have to have back surgery. He’s an idiot

And Anderson is injured after one whole inning. Sprained his wrist diving for a ground ball.
After this season, alien abductions would look normal.
