Latest blog entries from Los Angeles teams across every league
The Dodgers and Toronto Blue Jays are back at it on Tuesday night for the middle game of their series at Rogers Centre. Yoshinobu Yamamoto starts on the mound on Tuesday, looking for his fourth win in as many career games in Toronto. The other three just happened to be in the 2025 World Series, […]
Dodgers center fielder Andy Pages had five multi-hit games and reached base far more often than not against the Cleveland Guardians and Washington Nationals, and on Monday was rewarded with National League player of the week honors. Pages last week started with a pair of two-hit games, then three three-hit games in a row, before […]
The Lakers got a double dose of bad news over the weekend as both Luka Dončić (hamstring) and Austin Reaves (oblique) are done for the regular season. Their status for the opening round of the playoff remains murky at best as well, although they’re both aiming to return as evidenced by Luka heading to Europe […]
Blake Corum Proves He’s More Than a Backup in LA Like it or not, but Blake Corum is no longer just an insurance policy for the Los Angeles Rams. The running back carved out a defined role in the Rams’ backfield during the 2025 season, finishing with 746 rushing yards, six touchdowns, and 145 carries, [...]
Our counterparts at Bluebird Banter have a fun segment in which they reach out to the opposing team’s SB Nation page before an upcoming series. Accordingly, before the upcoming Toronto Blue Jays/Dodgers series, which is the second-fastest rematch in MLB history, Bryant Tefler asked me some more questions he had about the current state of the Dodgers. […]
While it’s now quite some time into the relative past, one of the big talking points, given hindsight, of Thursday’s game against the Thunder was the decision to play both Luka Dončić and Austin Reaves in the second half of a blowout. Given that the game was out of hand, the pair have played heavy […]
The New York Giants have received a trade request from former All-Pro defensive tackle Dexter Lawrence, according to ESPN’s Adam Schefter. Lawrence wants a better contract and the Giants have not been able to appease that desire for more money, so the defensive tackle wants to go to a team that’s happy to foot the […]
I hope everyone had an enjoyable Easter long weekend…I certainly am happy that I used a few holiday days to stretch it to a full 7 days without doing my day job. Moving on to look at the Western Conference’s wildcard race before action gets underway on Monday. The Winnipeg Jets are currently 3 points behind the Nashville Predators & Los Angeles Kings, who are tied for the 8th and final spot. The San Jose Sharks are only 2 points back of those clubs and 1 up on the Jets, while the St. Loui...
Following a weekend of catastrophic injuries that saw their star backcourt ruled out for at least the regular season, the Lakers still had a game to play on Sunday in Dallas. The ripple effects of this will reverberate not only through the summer but also force an already thin roster to completely restructure its style […]
It seems like only yesterday when the Dodgers won the World Series by winning the final two games on the road at Rogers Centre in Toronto, including coming back from down two runs in the eighth inning in Game 7, setting of a string of improbable highlights that beat the Blue Jays and brought a […]
The Los Angeles Rams didn’t sign a backup quarterback in free agency, which means that they could look for one in the 2026 NFL Draft. This may not be a great quarterback class, but that also might mean that the Rams could find good value at 13 or even later in the draft. Throughout the […]
The Los Angeles Rams are going to have many options when they are on the clock during the 2026 NFL Draft. Given the shape that the roster is in, it would be hard to be too upset with whatever the Rams do. That’s a good spot to be in, but also a pressure spot as […]

Sign up here to participate in the weekly emailed surveys. Throughout the season, conversations about the 65-game rule have been ramping up as players who are worthy of […]
Edge rusher became a much more prevalent need for the Chargers once Odafe Oweh signed with the Commanders in free agency. The Bolts were able to re-sign Khalil Mack for another season to pair with Tuli Tuipulotu, but a third impactful pass rusher is a must if they hope to keep the defensive train rolling […]
After a rough last half-plus of the homestand at the plate, the Dodgers in three days resurrected their offense against the Washington Nationals, ushering in a weekend sweep to secure a second winning week in a row. Beginning with a really good Friday in Washington D.C., the Dodgers battered Nationals starters in the first two […]
Not exactly the best week to face the Dodgers, as the Jays push through the weakest part of their schedule in 2026 going 4-5, topping it off being swept by the White Sox. The Jays have really struggled with their bullpen, with almost half their games going into extra innings, which is not something you […]
Good morning! A frustrating, extra-innings loss yesterday to the Los Angeles Angels capped off a tough away series for the Mariners. While a three-run home run by Cole Young was a highlight of the 7-8 defeat, the Mariners will look to put this series behind them and prepare to face the Texas Rangers. A three-game […]

Mookie Betts getting placed on the injured list on Sunday brings with it some questions for the Dodgers. He’ll miss at least 10 days, though a strained oblique never seems to require only a minimum stay on the sidelines. Max Muncy last season missed three and a half weeks on the injured list with an […]
While the Dodgers have won seven of their first nine games to sit atop the National League West, the rest of the division is off to a tough start to 2026, with none of the other four teams having a winning record. The Arizona Diamondbacks are in second place after the first three series of […]
For the first time in nearly three months, the Dallas Mavericks finally won a game at the American Airlines Center against a depleted Lakers squad. The Mavericks offense was clicking all night, with the paint scoring being especially impressive. While the defensive effort was lackluster, it’s hard to ask anymore of this Mavericks team. Without […]
The Dallas Mavericks (25-53) beat the Los Angeles Lakers 134-128 on Sunday in a nationally televised game that saw Cooper Flagg continue his scorched earth campaign on the NBA to close out the 2025-26 season. The Mavericks came out with real pace in the first quarter, but more than anything, it was Cooper Flagg that […]
It was a good job and good effort from the Lakers, but they came up short in their first game since learning that Luka Dončić and Austin Reaves would be out for the rest of the regular season. With three starters unavailable against Dallas, LA struggled early on defensively. Cooper Flagg made another strong case […]
No Luka Dončić, no Austin Reaves, no problem. Cooper Flagg took center stage on Sunday in a nationally televised game as the Dallas Mavericks (25-53) outlasted the Los Angeles Lakers (50-28) at American Airlines Center, 134-128. The Mavericks had lost 14 straight home games entering the contest but finally broke through the night they faced […]
After a whirlwind weekend, the shorthanded Lakers gave it a go in Dallas but a huge start from the Mavs paved the way for them to pick up a 134-128 win. Behind Cooper Flagg, who finished with 45 points, the Mavericks raced out to a lead as large as 22 points at 58-36 in the […]
