Latest blog entries from Los Angeles teams across every league
The Dodgers hand the ball to Yoshinobu Yamamoto (2–1, 1.83 ERA) for game 2, whose electric stuff and pinpoint command have made him a postseason standout. The right-hander has allowed just four earned runs across three starts, striking out 18 and keeping hitters off balance with his splitter. Toronto has yet to announce its starter, […]

The World Series shifts to Dodger Stadium with both the Dodgers and Blue Jays flying to Los Angeles after Saturday night’s Game 2 in Toronto. At least two, and likely three games will be played at Dodger Stadium, and the pitching matchups have been set for Games 3 and 4. Tyler Glasnow starts for the […]
On Monday the Seattle Seahawks defeated the Houston Texans 27-19 at Lumen Field to keep pace with the San Francisco 49ers and Los Angeles Rams in the NFC West ahead of having Week 8 off thanks to the bye week. However, while the Seahawks won’t be on the field during Week 8, they are in […]
Tommy Edman’s sprained right ankle has limited him for long stretches this season, which has essentially limited him to second base this postseason. That removes an option for center field, which has been occupied all October by a struggling Andy Pages. Edman’s ability to play both the middle infield and center field was a huge […]
After years of everyone seemingly knowing about the problem other than the Lakers, the team finally admitted they stink in third quarters after their season-opening loss to the Warriors. Even if it was long overdue, seeing them finally address it was at least a step in the right direction. But the team needed to follow […]
2025 World Series, Dodgers vs Blue Jays — The Toronto Blue Jays trounced the Los Angeles Dodgers in Game 1 of the 2025 World Series last night, plating NINE runs in the bottom of the sixth inning, alone. But tonight is another night, and the Dodgers have another ace, Yoshinobu Yamamoto, to send to the mound. That said, the Blue Jays have a pretty good counter in Kevin Gausman, who has a 2.00 ERA through four postseason appearances already this October. Offensively, the Dodgers did sc...
An explosion of runs led the Blue Jays to an early series lead. Will they extend that lead, or will the Dodgers strike back? Here’s an open thread for game 2.
For a moment in the second period, the Tampa Bay Lightning had shook off the shackles of their slow start and appeared to be on their way to a comfortable win against the Anaheim Ducks. Back-to-back milestone goals gave them a 3-1 lead and it seemed like they were headed to victory against a plucky Anaheim squad. The Ducks rocked the faith of the Lightning fans as they scored twice within a minute in the third period to tie things up. However, Anthony Cirelli, aka Tony Two Goals, lived up to h...
The Dodgers will try to get their offense going in Game 2 of the World Series against the Blue Jays, using the same lineup and same batting order on Saturday night at Rogers Centre in Toronto. It’s the sixth consecutive game for the Dodgers with the same starting nine position players. In nine games after […]
expected to draw two-way interest around the league While the G League draft is rarely cause for note, the Lakers made a very interesting move in Saturday’s. Holding the No. 1 pick after a trade, the Lakers selected former Thunder wing Dillon Jones. Oklahoma City drafted Jones in the 2024 draft with the No. 26 […]
You couldn’t script a more “welcome home, now fight for your life” kind of opener if you tried. The Wolves limp back to Minneapolis after coughing up a frustrating loss to Luka and the Lakers. But now it’s time to hit the reset button. Lights back on at Target Center. Finally. Wolves vs. Pacers. Sunday […]
Winning a World Series title is hard, irrespective of how much better you might be than most, if not all of the competition. Winning one in a seamless fashion is an unrealistic goal and a bit disrespectful to the nature of the postseason in baseball. The Dodgers lost Game 1 of the World Series, and […]
If the Jaguars are open to trading Brian Thomas Jr., as has been alleged on Saturday, then the Los Angeles Rams are the usual suspects to make an offer that Jacksonville couldn’t refuse. The Rams need a player like Thomas to take the pressure off of Puka Nacua and Davante Adams, and they have often […]
The bye week seemed to come at just the right time for the Los Angeles Rams. Puka Nacua missed one game with an ankle injury and it’s within the realm of possibility that he returns in Week 9. There are also several lineup changes the Rams could consider implementing with an extra week to prepare. […]
The script for how a particular game could go south for the Los Angeles Dodgers was followed to a tee in this blowout Blue Jays win to open the World Series. Much was made of the battle between elite swing-and-miss stuff from the Dodgers starter and a contact-oriented approach from the Blue Jays lineup. Contact […]
With the Los Angeles Rams on a bye this week, it’s a time for fans to relax from the stresses and excitement of gamedays. However, for many diehard fans, they have a favorite team residing in the opposite conference they elect to root for on occasion. So Rams fans, what is your favorite AFC team […]
Good morning Birdland, Folks, we have ourselves a World Series! The Blue Jays took Game 1 on Friday night, crushing the Dodgers 11-4 in a game that was over by the end of the sixth inning. Blake Snell, who had been terrific in these playoffs up until this game, was smacked around and knocked from […]
The Dodgers lost a clunker to the Blue Jays in Game 1 of the World Series on Friday night, thanks to a nine-run sixth inning that turned the opener into a laugher. Blake Snell allowed the first three runs of the inning, leaving after not retiring any of his three batters faced in the sixth, […]
As we hurl towards Sunday, and the Los Angeles Rams are on a bye week, what is your favorite thing about this team through their seven games played? For me, it’s their ability to lose a heartbreaker against the Philadelphia Eagles, then come back and win, and to lose a sickening game against the San […]
After a few days of mental regrouping, baseball is back, as the Blue Jays and Dodgers kicked off the 2025 World Series at the Rogers Centre up north of the border. It was a tense and tight start to Game 1 of the Fall Classic, but once they found their footing, the Blue Jays took […]
Good morning, baseball fans! We’ve got one game this weekend, and that is Game 2 of the 2025 World Series between the visiting Los Angeles Dodgers and the Toronto Blue Jays Saturday night from the Rogers Centre. Taking the mound for the Dodgers will be right-hander Yoshinobu Yamamoto, who finished the regular season with a […]
The finale of the 2025 season kicked off last night, with the Blue Jays running away with a surprise Game 1 victory 11-4. Addison Barger’s pinch-hit grand slam was the gut punch that sealed the deal, but the Jays had already gotten to Dodgers starter Blake Snell well before that. Toronto took a huge step […]
DFS Picks Week 8 Hey all and welcome to Week 8! Week 7 was my best of the season from a DFS perspective. I had a healthy does of Justin Herbert and Keenan Allen. I had Quinshon Judkins and the Browns DST in almost every lineup as well as significant exposure to Chris Olave and […]

On a beautiful 70 degree Los Angeles evening, Crypto.com Arena was packed full of fans and stars. Dwyane Wade. Candace Parker. Justin Herbert. Even the Timberwolves very own Kevin […]
