Take The Plaschke Challenge!
So this is what it's come to.And now, Plaschke Number Two!The Dodgers heart and soul has been replaced by a machine.
A computer doesn't create team chemistry.
A computer doesn't replace great character.
A computer doesn't inspire teammates to play harder.
A computer doesn't lead.
But a computer told Paul DePodesta that the Dodgers most inspirational player wasn't needed any more.
Perhaps there was a faulty wire in the laptop.
It could be worse.All right, Dodger fans -- time's up. Did you guess which Plaschke is the real one? If you said number two, you're right! If you agreed with him, 6-4-2 has a baseball autographed by every single Arkansas Traveler Bill Stoneman didn't trade yesterday. If you didn't, you win a chalk pencil you can use to write Paulie's and Mota's numbers on your very own Dodger cap, just like Dreifort and Lima!Paul DePodesta could also be your gardener.
The lawn needs trimming? Fire up the backhoe.
The trees need pruning? Timberrr!
In reshaping the Dodger lineup this weekend by subtracting strengths and adding questions and whiffing on Johnson, the Dodger general manager could be a genius.
Then again, he could be Edward Scissorhands.
And a big tip of the ol' 6-4-2 Dodger cap to Dodger Thoughts reader Suffering Bruin, who came up with that. Simply hi-larious.
