NO

Murton being DFA'd...
what’s the knock on him besides our outfield depth? Opportunity to play somewhere where he’s needed?
I got nothing.
Optioned
I think Murton was just optioned. Someone can correct me if I’m wrong, but Rincon was still on the 40 man roster as he was on the DL. I believe Murton can be sent down without exposing him to waivers.

Yeah, I can't believe they'd risk him
to waivers. It doesn’t make sense, I think the DFA was a mistake in communication somewhere.

MLB.com also says DFA
No transactions have appeared on the site (I last looked a few minute ago).
I dunno, it’s curious. Unless someone is coming up tonight/tomorrow, or he’s being traded, I wonder about the timing. Plenty of time until Sept 1.
Leave Dexter alone! You're lucky he even performs for you!
But your'e right about the other things
Rincon was on the 40, and this is Murton’s last option year.
Leave Dexter alone! You're lucky he even performs for you!
He was definitely designated for assignment.
The move was to clear roster space for other September callups like Giambi.
by Greg Stanwood on Aug 26, 2009 6:05 PM MDT up reply actions
Did they have to DFA him days in advance?
Leave Dexter alone! You're lucky he even performs for you!
No.
But I take it they were planning on it, and thought to get it out of the way now. Why not?
by Greg Stanwood on Aug 26, 2009 6:13 PM MDT up reply actions
Dunno, because they weren't forced to?
If they just option him, he could still be recalled in the event of an OF injury, right? If not, then yeah, makes no difference.
Leave Dexter alone! You're lucky he even performs for you!

I predict a total of 53 outs… Another walk off win, but in the 9th this time

Depends on efficiency
He should be able to go around 70 pitches or so

Since he pitched yesterday, probably not.
I’d say one at the most from Herges, same for Morales. Rincon could potentially work a couple. Beimel barely worked at all, and Street is now rested. I don’t foresee a serious bullpen problem unless Fogg has to make a really early exit.
by Greg Stanwood on Aug 26, 2009 6:12 PM MDT up reply actions
Right, which is why I consider Herges still available.
I just wouldn’t put him in the automatic 2 inning category without a day of rest earlier.

Glad we have a slayer of beasts at the ready for nights like this.
I hope our offense gives him some run support.
Agreed.
Tonight would be a good night to break out of this little offensive funk we’ve been in for a little while(sans Saturday’s game, anyway). Let’s score a bunch of runs before the 5th inning tonight, for a change.

hee hee, Dodger Thoughts tries playing the underdog card:
Whether the Dodgers will start winning remains to be seen, but their losing is not the result of a talent gap, and I’m not going to be easily convinced it’s because of a lack of heart either. Not with the number of times they’ve come back after being counted out this season.
They’ve been counted out this season, huh? Somehow I don’t remember people declaring them losers in the first week of May.

I think of it more as
quasi-optimism. I’m assuming we’re going to lose (as that is the logical, likely result) so I won’t be sad when it happens. As they say, there are 50 your gonna lose, this should be one of those.
And that first inning only reinforced my thoughts — Fogg is probably not going to hold them down today. But who knows with this team.
I get the assume the worst, hope for the best thing
just seems like we might wanna wait until, the 2 or 3rd inning before assuming the worst is actually happening :)
nah, because by then if we can make it close
I’ll start expecting another miracle win, and that defeats my whole plan

The thing about Wolf
is that he shouldn’t even be on the Dodgers this year.
The Astros put a contract offer on the table for him & his agent
was negotiating the details … then the Astros withdrew it
when their owner decided to cut payroll.
Predictably, the Astros end up being a starter short of
contending (Hampton instead of Wolf) & Wolf ends up
w/ the Dodgers.
So blame the Astros if he throws a good game here.
