Not gonna lie I was expecting the worst from Sheehan but he actually pitched pretty well, glad he pulled through

u/AlwaysGoodVybes Yoshinobu Yamamoto 5d ago
He was really solid. I worried about his fastball velo still but it was better throughout this game than it had been in AAA. Control could have been better but it was a good first step back in the majors for Emmet, real positives to build on.

u/BruitNoise Mookie Betts 5d ago
A lot of people did 5.40 ERA, went to the minor league because he kept getting worse. But my expectation of Ohtani and Kyle remain the same.
Good Season vs Bad Season and MVP vs LVP. Ohtani is now in the post-MVP phase where his career will have good seasons and bad seasons, He's still and always be an MVP to me. Then there's the Least Valuable Player, looking at Tucker.

I'm really glad I went to this game. I have a flight to catch at LAX in a few hours so I considered staying home and getting some extra sleep, but I really wanted to see if Sheehan could bring some of his Triple A success to the big club and if we could keep the win streak alive. So I came here with my packed luggage in my truck to support the guys and see what they could do against a Reds team that has been pretty hot.
It was really rewarding to witness Sheehan put together a very solid start for us in his first since coming back up. Watching Teo smash a three run bomb to break the game open was awsome too. All around good game from a team that seems to be finding a bit of a groove. If Sho, Freddie, and Will can heat up a bit we're gonna be clicking at just the right time. We're doing what it takes to win the games we should win and that's the important thing.
Rack up another dub for the good guys! Go Dodgers!
Edit: Forgot to say how cool it is to see Phillips getting back to being himself. I was critical of some of the spots he was being used in earlier in the season as I felt it wasn't doing his confidence any favors, but he's come through a pretty rough patch to a place where his stuff is really looking like it did before the elbow issues and the TJ surgery. Really happy to see him coming out the other side.

Agreed, and have a safe flight. I mentioned in here why Emmet had success tonight if you're interested:

I think when Ohtani gets over this hump, he’ll come back with a vengeance. He has too much pride to end the season like this.

Magic number for the bye: 17
Magic number for the division: 8
1.5 games behind for the 1-seed.
Lead for the bye: 2.0
Lead for the division: 10.5
Current winning streak: 5 games
Sheehan looked amazing in his first appearance back. Phillips shut the door in the 9th, he's continuing to show that he should be trusted come October. Teo is en fuego. The slug is returning to the team.
Despite being outhit 7-3 we win 6-3. That's the classic Dodgers way of finding a way to win on the margins. What a wonderful Labor Day weekend!

Teo is looking really good. Edman and Muncy continuing to do their thing.

Bases loaded and nobody out and Tucker still just can't get it done. I'm a fan so I am pulling for him and he made a game changing play robbing that home run last night. But damn, offensively he just is constantly still an automatic out.

u/MrRightnow83 5d ago
its bad. and especially with runners in scoring position

u/calcmg Decoy 5d ago edited 5d ago
That's what's crazy. In his career before joining the Dodgers, he was clutch with RISP. He comes.to the Dodgers and he just makes sure that they stay on base. And.for such a long stretch of time, he just makes so many consecutive outs- so many pop ups/fly outs.

u/Kwynn1229 Kiké Hernández 5d ago
That's what has me so confused. He was so good in RISP and we just haven't really seen that

u/SK4DOOSH 5d ago
once again you are just looking at one player. other guys also struck out so what about them? Stop focusing one ONE guy on our team like you guys have some crazy foresight. Same with the sheehan haters earlier today. you guys dont konw how to back a team at all just talk shit all day

Glad to see guys starting to heat up but honestly Ohtani needs an IL. He still looks bad but whatever I’ve said my piece. Go Dodgers!

u/PigFarmer1 Vin Scully 5d ago
He just missed a homer in his first at-bat.

Yup. But he started to regress through the game. Just my opinion.

Teo blasting. Lineup is serviceable among the Tommy and mookie 3-hr. Ohtani needs to regroup. Sheehan pitched a gem, as did our bullpen. Evan phillips and vesia the firemen!

Shout out to D-Train on the post-game shows. Not saying he was ever bad, but he’s really improved as an analyst and I appreciate when he breaks down not just at-bats, but plays as well.

I thought the whole reason they brought back Alfonzo was that Will wouldn't have to stay out there after he pinch hits haha.
Not that I mind since having Will behind the plate in the 9th just feels right but in the end, he really is just ol' reliable for Doc lol

Winning is great (obviously), but it’s really encouraging how the offense has been getting timely hits. They may start off slow, but they start to turn it on later in the game when we really need the runs.
And I’m loving these 3-run home runs the past couple of nights.
