When did the Galaxy decide to wear black and green?

They're kind of throwbacks to kits they wore back in 98.

Sports can really provide some amazing stats sometimes, but we are entering new territory with Jacob deGrom, he has a legit case for the most dominant player in team sports the last 3-4 years but just can't get any run or bullpen support.

Jacob deGrom has started 5 games this year and allowed 0-1-0-0-1 ER's in those starts and is 2-2.

2020 12 starts

0 ER - 2 times (2 no-decisions)
1 ER- 4 times (2-1 record)
2 ER- 4 times (2-1 record)
3 ER- 3 times ( 3 no decisions)

2019 32 starts

0 ER - 9 times (5-0 record)
1 ER - 8 times (3-0 record)
2 ER - 8 times (2-2 record)
3 ER - 2 times (0-2 record)

2018 32 starts

0 ER - 9 times (4-0 record)
1 ER - 12 times (4-2 record)
2 ER - 5 times (1-4 record)
3 ER - 5 times (0-3 record)

I remember a couple of those games he was the only one hitting, too :laugh:. There were a few spring training games a couple of years back where Kershaw pitched a full contingent of shutout innings then went 3-3 with a HR, that's like deGrom in the bigs

The guy is an absolute machine

Yes, that is true. I think there was one game where he lost 2-1 while pitching 8 innings of 1 ER ball and also had the RBI double.

Looking again at the stats I posted, just so many things blow your mind.

23 starts with 0 ER, yet only 11 wins.
26 starts with 1 ER, 9-5 record
17 starts with 2 ER, 5-7 record
84 starts the last 4 years and he has allowed 0 or 1 run in 49 of them and his overall record is 27-21

All of those stats would by themselves be remarkable and worthy of discussion, when it happens to one guy its mind boggling. If this guy had been a Dodger (or frankly any other team) he probably has 30-40 more wins over the last 3-4 years and combined with his strike-out and other metrics is basically seen as the pitching version of Trout by the casual fans. I wasn't sure how long it would take to see anyone as good as Pedro was in the late 90's, but I think he is just as dominant over this 4 year run as Pedro was in his prime.

Dodgers are on a pretty steep slide right now. May out for the season. No idea when Bellinger is to return. Almost everyone is cold. Pitching is pretty solid, but they still don't have a closer because Knebel is out long term and Jansen looks weak. A lot is going wrong right now.

Yuck, Dodgers. I was hoping that playing the Angels would pump them up a little but it looks like another dissapointing LA team in 2021.

I would post more in this thread if you moved the soccer stuff in the title to the end of the line.

Maybe others would too.

I don't think having 2 soccer teams at the front is disincentivizing people from posting about the lakers, dodgers or the Rams, I obviously did it as a joke and its still very much an LA Sports thread and not a soccer thread. I'll get rid of LAFC because I know no one on this forum gives a shit about them as does most of LA
