These '08 Dodgers can't be stopped!!!

Okay, it's just spring training and it's only one opening spring training contest.  But for the time being the Dodgers are absolutely infallible, courtesy of a 5-4 win over the Braves.  So infallible, in fact, that they're able to overcome similar base running issues that oft did in the team last season.  The victory itself came in comeback fashion, powered by John Lindsay's ninth inning ribbie single.  That's the good news.  The bad news was the sight of Matt Kemp sliding into third base, only to find James Loney standing on the bag.  Ouch-ke!  Particularly in the case of this young outfielder, who was often prone to hoofing gaffes in 2007.   And you don't want to spark the ire of a third base coach who isn't one of them namby-pamby, helmet wearing types.  All is good between the instructor and instructee, but clearly, kinks are in need of ironing out.  That mission, generally speaking, will fall upon Joe Torre's flexible shoulders.  And shockingly enough, a dude with rings galore, instant cred and a well-tested ability to bond with players is confident to do things as he pleases.  Nice to have a sense of assurance, because it won't be a cakewalk.
