@cdgoldstein.baseballprospectus.com maybe 2nd viscount?
decent
gotta have fresh cornbread 🤤
and the brisket flat is done, now to rest it down to serving temp and hold it there
burnt ends 🤤
throwback to this classic
Joe Kelly’s psycho ass rn

Heandog? Fr fr?
two different classic sitcom socks to hit Punky Brewster at the same time, kill three birds with two stones
Yoshinobu Yamamoto’s season fWAR total reached 4.1 today, which is the highest mark for a Dodger pitcher since Tyler Anderson posted the same total in 2022
in Scott’s case, so far, it has been subtraction by addition
Scott absolutely can bounce back. But having to even say that about a reliever who signed for $72M, yeah, not great Bob.
with the remaining signing bonus payouts, there’s only 3/$56M left on Tanner Scott’s deal after this season 😭😂
left for the park, and by the time I got there, Tanner Scott completely shat the bed, if only my two toddlers were anywhere near that efficient
as I live and breathe, from 0-2 to walk for Michael Conforto (though I could have done without the 0-0 middle/middle 92 fb take, like what else do you sit on first pitch?)
Teo getting benched? Wow. I mean yeah, if you’re about the worst defensive outfielder in baseball, you need to bang, and he ain’t. His wRC+ since June 1st is 72, which is 154th out of 158 qualified batters (over the same time period, Conforto’s wRC+ is 80 😬)
second half OPS Michael Conforto: .648 Steven Kwan: .619
Glass half full: got to teach Rick Monday what TOOTBLAN means tonight!!! 🙃
nailed it
Luis Carias, 20 yo Venezuelan RHP, made his full season ball debut for Rancho: 4.1 IP 4 hits 0 runs 2 BBs 2 Ks 6’4, FB up to 98 and he still has room to add muscle, plus slider, and still pretty new to baseball. If I still did helium articles, I think he’d be one of my guys this offseason.
it feels like this Dodger team has been playing the whole season with a hangover
at dodgers fyi you can in fact do something with fastballs that catch too much plate, turns out
these guys are just so sloppy out there
89! Right there!!!
that was so much bad baseball between the dodgers last two runs scored, I feel like Andy Dufresne after he crawled through miles of shit
FINALLY TYMB
fair point, 6.6
if it feels to you like this Dodger ballclub is blowing it on the basepaths and hitting into more double plays compared to last year, you’re right Team BsR 24: +10.5 25: -0.5 GIDPs 24: 99 25: 93 (on pace for 112)
Tyler doesn’t deserve this shit
93, right there, foul ball I mean, sure it’s great that he walked, but they gotta be damaging these, there’s no excuse
maybe it’s just not in the cards
the dodgers just put their hand on my shoulder, and said, “son, someday you will learn”
I can’t tell if these guys are pressing, or just pressed in general, but either way, they need to iron this out
dodgers don’t tootblan challenge (impossible)
TWO hits? in a row???
watching these guys getting carved by guys with ERAs starting with 5 and tootblanning when they finally do get a baserunner, I… yeah, this ain’t good
is Freddie aware that he didn’t have to go
ball one
the frequency these days that these guys are swinging through 93-94 middle/middle is annoying as hell
apart from the gratuitous dong shot, there’s some stuff here that’s not so great 😬
Sterling Patick, 20 yo LHP and a ‘23 18th rounder for the Dodgers, just had a solid Hi-A debut for Great Lakes: 4.0 IP 5 hits 2 runs (earned) 1 BB 6 Ks (12 whiffs) FB that sits 95 and touches 97, sweeperish slider that flashes plus, and a decent cutter, command tightening up is an up arrow here.
I’m of course impressed by Kendall George having 92 stolen bases, but Josue De Paula having 30 stolen bases in just 90 games is insane 🤯
since the trade Dustin May: 5.68 ERA James Tibbs III: 128 wRC+ Zach Ehrhard: 149 wRC+ I can’t believe the dodgers got two actual prospects for Dustin May
separated the flat from the point, they’re back in the freezer now to par freeze the fat and make it easier to trim up properly
oh yeah
that Beverly Hills cop theme song ringtone I used forever really slapped tho, always stopped people dead in their tracks 😂
I aim to please :-)
right now Matthew McConaughey is monologuing and nobody around him knows what any of it means
looks like he has a tiny syd the sloth in his shirt
raise your hand if you had Mookie being the glove-first shortstop and Miguel Rojas being the bat-first guy

HAS ANYONE SEEN THE HAMBURGLER
Sure, people are there shit posting and saying funny things, but the sense of community here, for me, is so much stronger, I still have zero regrets about deleting and moving on.
MANY PEOPLE ARE SAYING 😂😂
more of this here pls is bsky what Twitter used to be? no, but it can be a very very good thing in its own right, stuff like I’ve seen tonight, that’s the goods
Then with my seasoning mix being right on the surface, it makes for an easy dry brine, so back in the fridge with a heavy coat for 24 hours before going in the smoker.
I used to, but I stopped because it wasn’t necessary. My prep method now is to par-freeze to make it easier to cut through fat, I separate the point from the flat, trim the cap to 1/4”, clean up the edges, and I found it’s enough time for the surface to become tacky on its own, no binder needed.
Should be excited, I’m going to separate the point from the flat to dedicate it solely for burnt ends 🤤
big big weekend, gonna smoke a brisket
idk about you, but to me, that’d have a decent shot of being the best shoe leather I’d ever have 😂
I will eat a well done steak with ketchup if true
lol ain’t that always the way? really though, he’s just a rook taking his lumps, he still has a bright future
Yeah, and I don’t have the answer to that. With so much going on that’s so messed up, honestly, it’s hard, and exhausting, to try to keep up with it all.
I don’t know everything that has gone down, but I do know there was also a healthcare issue: lalgbtcenter.org/vanguard/pre...
Dbacks kept Woodford in reserve
I always thought Tom Petty did a good job playing himself in The Postman 🤷♂️
now this is dodger baseball
and now Freeland missing two middle/middle fastballs, bleh
🚨V IMPORTANT THREAD🚨
Gallen’s having the worst year of his career, so of course he’s carving up the dodgers
fastball counts, 93 and 94 on a tee, Mookie couldn’t do a thing with them, lordy that was depressing
Adam Serwinowski, since coming to the Dodger system at the deadline: 29.0 IP 1.55 ERA 37 Ks 12 BBs .173 opp avg sss, but it’s possible the Dodgers have something here 🧐
Kendall George walked to lead off the 7th, stole second. Then after Josue De Paula walked they double stole. Catcher threw to second, De Paula was safe George's 3rd steal of the night gives him 89 on the season, tied with Sam Jethroe (1949) for 5th-most in a season in Dodgers history
I get that it was just a gateway to developing the parking lots and surrounding area, but it was a horseshit way to do it
This one is only for Blueskyers of a certain age.
lmao McCourt, fuck off 😈
I also had two baby teeth until my mid 30s, which is why I’m the most infantile dodgers prospect writer
only had two wisdom teeth, still got em, so no special bond here 😂
congrats to CT3!!
Damn. I get it, but damn, man.
put this in the louvre of bluesky 😂
I’m at a loss here how?
oh no Miguel Vargas 😢
we weren’t enthused about him at all, and then him missing it was the cherry on top of an absolutely perfect weekend
and here is Sam Horn, in a full leg cast/brace/thing 😬
Maddux Bruns needed just 81 pitches to efficiently (!!!) cruise through six innings of one run ball for Great Lakes, it’s the deepest he has ever gone in a ballgame yet
they gotta be related somehow
Brendan Tunink, Ching-Hsien Ko, and Emil Morales were named Arizona Complex League allstars
Sam Horn, 17th round pick of the Dodgers, who signed and went back to Missouri to play QB this Fall, apparently just got injured on a running play (it was his first play of the game too)
they had a tough time deciding on the third one, it was really last minute, went down to the McGwire
fucking based man
the Reds struck out 19 times?? sheeesh 🥶
Henriquez being R5 eligible and forcing the Dodgers to make him a reliever to see if they should add him to the 40 man meant we actually got to keep him in his predestined role (he never had the command to start) Dodgers got bullied by the clock into doing the right thing
