My Los Angeles Dodgers currently have the best record in baseball.
And I’m not talking about some worthless half-game lead over the jints . . . oh no. They’re 9 and 3, baby.

  2. Yeah, but a dozen games in April doesn’t get you the pennant. That’s what’s keeping me from hating my Phillies. That and the new ballpark.

  12. Hey, as long as the Phillies stomp the Orioles in the upcoming July inter-league series at the new Phillies stadium, I will allow the Dodgers to do whatever the hell they want.
    Funny how year after year we stomp the Orioles, but it just never changes the outcome of the ’83 World Series. But it still feels good, like bacon tastes good!
    GO PHILLIES!

  13. I don’t mean to put anyone down but lately I haven’t seen alot of entries lately from wil. I know he’s busy and all. I just miss his long thoughtful entries and this thing about baseball came up short.Sorry that’s just how I feel and I still love this web site and read his blog a day before work.

  15. I hear ya. My Phillies had a horrible start at 1-6 but now are on a winning streak and are almost back at .500.
    My AL team, the Orioles, are the best in the East. Take that you evil Yankee fans.

  18. i don’t even dare look at how my Blue Boys (blue jays) are doing… ug — 3 wins 9 losses… pathetic pathetic pathetic…

  21. HAH!
    My Phillies will beat them in a few weeks!
    I cannot wait to go, am flying over from Australia for E3, so will probably see the Dodgers whilst in LA, but I am also flying to Philly, to see the Phils kill the Dodgers 😀

  24. Just remember blue crew – 67% of your losses have come because of the Padres, while only 44% of your wins have come against them.
    Those are telling statistics. Yep.
    /I got nothin’
    Nah, gotta give props to the Dodgers. Let’s talk in August, when they start to perform as usual.

  28. What’s your point, Wil? (from an already-disappointed Cards fan)
    And the Astros will not be at .500 by the end of the season; they may very well win the NL Central! With a winning percentage of .550 or something, probably.

  29. Well the Red Sox are .5 games out of first place in the AL-East and just finished a series with the Yankees 3-1. Oh yeah and A-Rod just went 1 for 17 in that series. You don’t want to know how much money that is for that 1 hit.
    My baseball life is currrently all good. Oh yeah!

  31. Hey, I’m under no false impressions about the season . . . but I’m also a longtime Cubs fan, so I have to enjoy these things when I can.

  35. Eighthing (or whatever) the GO CUBS! As for the Dodgers…yay? They’re not in the Central, so I don’t much care. 🙂

  36. I love that the Dodgers swept the Giants in SF. I am turning Dodger Blue holding my breath that they might have a good season this year. Go Dodgers!!

  37. Es muy bien que te gusta mucho el baseball! Y felicidades en su completo de su libro! Aqui me espero hasta Junio (o es Julio?) por el publicacion de Just A Geek con mis dedos crusados.
    Siempre eres un actor muy talentoso, y por mi, ese es lo que me importa mucho. Me saludas a sus hijos y besos a la reyna mas bella, Anne. Hasta luego!
    Ay, donde esta mi tequila?

  39. after only 12 games you’re bragging? sheesh, past three years or so the A’s sucked for half the season only to come back at the end and make it to the playoffs, at which point they decide to suck again and lose…

  43. Go Expos 🙂
    I’m sure they’ll win something eventually if our stadium doesn’t collapse all over them.
    (Headline: Montreal first team to win by default as visitors taken out by falling chinks of concrete)
    Also: Go Habs! Go Avs! And Go Impact!

  44. Well, sooner or later the Dodgers will run into a team with more than one hitter and more than two decent starters, and then they’ll come back to earth.
    It’s going to be a few more years before they can put together a decent offense again. Especially in the middle infield.
    On the bright side, no one in the NL looks like a true powerhouse this year. Though Florida seems like the best bet to stay on a roll.

  45. who cares if it’s only 2 weeks into the season? when your team’s doing well you can’t help but want to jump around, throw the goat and scream happy happy things.
    and when your team’s not doing well and you still insist on doing those things, that makes you a Cub fan.
    Cubbie blue, through and through.

  46. Yes Wil, but your Kings took a good playoff run and dropped it into the toilet, goin 0-11 in the end to a sub .500 record. Hopefully the Dodgers won’t fall so hard.
    Go Kings (Whenever hockey is played again)

  47. Props to your Dodgers, Wil. I take it Todd Hundley’s still nursing injuries all the way to the bank? No way LA could be playing so well if that dead weight were in the lineup. Dumping him was the best move the Cubs ever made, even better than picking up Aramis Ramirez at the hot corner. He’s en fuego bay-bee!!!
    Sorry for mixing my sports metaphors.
    I’m just concerned that the Cubs will once again well… Be The Cubs. One day everyone’s hitting the daylights out of the ball, the next day no one can get the ball out of the infield. One day the starting pitching’s strong and the bullpen stingy, the next day it’s like a dam bursting open. Greg Maddux sure hasn’t made up for losing Mark Prior early on. I’m don’t believe in jinxes, but someone forgot to tell these guys they’re supposed to win the pennant this year.
    I think you need to lead the 7th inning stretch at Wrigley this summer, Wil. You’re on a roll lately. Spread the love and good vibes, man…

  48. As a die-hard Anaheim Angels fan whose team is playing in the tougher of the two western divisions (designated hitter or not) I will admit that the Dodgers are doing surprisingly well. Is it the fact that your bats have finally shown up, or the the fact that they play William Hung in the clubhouse?
    But at least we swept you at the beginning of the month in the Freeway Series, and we will do the same later this season.
    Good luck for the rest of the season. I do have La Duca and Gange on my fantasy team.
    Peace…

  49. I made a cheap dinner bet at my fantasy draft on March 28th that the Dodgers would win at least 75 games this season… the guy was willing to offer me 65 games… I took the 75.
    Of course, I thought this was a stupid, “homer” bet, in reality… but, it is nice to see the Dodgers looking so good this early.
