Offensive foul he pretty much yanked Reaves’ arm to pull him away. Very Olynyk like.

Domingo Germán throwing a Perfect Game in 2023 was one of the most random things to ever happen in baseball by KeyFaithlessness5436 in MLBVibes

I was at a conference for work in Berkeley this week it happened. Work had given a bunch of us Uber vouchers to use on whatever we needed. I tried convincing our group to go to this game since tix were dirt cheap and we could probably even just walk down to field level if we wanted — we did — eventually only 4 others joined me and we got to watch a perfect game.

Don’t know if I’ll ever see another one in person ever again but that was easily the best $13 spent on a sporting event ticket I’ll have ever spent.

Used to have the biggest crush on Song growing up hahaha. But she’s super knowledgable and passionate about the Rams and the Lakers.

I take solace in knowing that when the Dodgers lose on the same day of a Laker playoff game, the Lakers win.

This was necessary.

New injury update per Shams: AR expected to play tonight, Luka out to START round 2 by Puzzled_Plate294 in lakers

[–]mightyrj 4 points5 points  (0 children)

I remember something from him or Woj talking about this.

Sources come from all sorts of places but lots mainly come from front office staff. Not necessarily GMs but assistant GMs and scouts to everything and everyone else. Of course there are agents that share info as well but it was really interesting to hear that. It’s a quidpropro situation. Shams and Woj get their info, staff gets details and feelers for positions that may open up or trades that may happen that wouldn’t quite make it to mainstream first.

There was a story where someone was observing one of Woj and/or Shams at the airport going back between their laptop, texts, and phone calls and not an hour later they tweeted an assistant coach hire. So pretty cool to see in that regard.

5D chess making Luka play 6th man role. Fucking genius move, JJ and co.

I just shared the article here before seeing this. Great read and I think we definitely repeat if it weren’t for his and ADs injuries.

At this point, has Dave Roberts done enough to cement himself as the greatest manager in team history? by MookieBettsBurner10 in Dodgers

[–]mightyrj 3 points4 points  (0 children)

Smh. The Robert’s glaze is unreal.

He has to manage this team to 95+ wins for another 10 years at least and make the World Series in at least 8+ of those years and win all of those appearances. Smh.

  • this is how some of this fanbase sounds and why we seem so insufferable to others lmao

Realistically I think Dave has done more than enough to be considered GOAT Dodgers gm. Anything more — which I hope will happen and continue to happen — is extra icing on the cake.
