First it was Garciaparra being hit with a pitch on the right wrist in the fourth inning in the game against the St. Louis Cardinals.  X-rays were negative and Garciaparra will be re-evaluated in a few days.

After Garciaparra was taken out of the game, LaRoche came in and on an attempted pickoff move from the catcher, the ball bounced off the runner and hit LaRoche in the thumb.  All that caused a torn ligament in the thumb that will require surgery and sideline LaRoche for eight to ten weeks!

Everyone better hope that Nomar stays healthy!

Will the Dodgers make it back into post season play in 2008?  Can they get by the Diamondbacks, Rockies, and Padres?  Right now it looks like an up hill battle for the Dodgers, but that is why they play the game!  Who knew last year, that the Colorado Rockies would be playing in the World Series?!  That is why we have to keep staying positive for the Dodgers, because anything anything can happen!
