After the Dodgers exposed the Yankees’ defensive shortcomings last October — and reveled in twisting the knife in the months that followed — GM Brian Cashman faced questions all offseason about how he’d bolster his defensive unit. The results were a mixed bag. Newcomers like Cody Bellinger and Ryan McMahon shored up problem areas from […]

Good morning, Camden Chatters. Our torturous hiatus from baseball is over. After a three-day break following the Championship Series round, the World Series begins tonight. It’ll be the Dodgers (bleh) against the Blue Jays (yuck) in a matchup in which I, personally, will be rooting for the meteor. First pitch of Game 1 is scheduled […]

Snell only made 11 regular season starts for the Dodgers but was excellent in those outings, putting up a 2.35 […]

My first conscious memory of the Silver Slugger award was opening a pack of Upper Deck baseball cards and pulling out a Daryl Strawberry card (when he was on the Dodgers) with a Silver Slugger award logo in the corner. I asked my dad, “What’s a Silver Slugger?” and he probably said something like “oh […]

I know, I know, the Brewers aren’t in the World Series. It’s unfortunate. Still, it will be an interesting series (with potential collective bargaining ramifications!) as the Los Angeles Dodgers and Toronto Blue Jays take the field. Check out some of the connections these teams have to Wisconsin and the Brewers here! The Dodgers are […]

The World Series gets under way, and despite the Blue Jays having home-field advantage, and a better regular season record than the Dodger, they feel very much the underdogs. Perhaps it’s the way Los Angeles has steam-rollered the opposition this year on their way to this point. The Dodgers’ pitching staff have a 2.45 ERA […]

When you have several days between the ALCS and the start of the World Series, surprisingly enough there isn’t much for news. The Dodgers have announced their starters for games one and two: Blake Snell (5-4, 2.35) and Yoshinobu Yamamoto (12-8, 2.49).

Although the fresh playoff moments for the Chicago Cubs wrapped up in this year’s National League Division Series, we can still look back and enjoy the best of the best moments that came before.
For example, here’s one of the absolute best: on this day in 2016, the Cubs beat the Dodgers to win the 2016 National League Championship Series and take their first pennant in 71 years. They were off to the World Series, where I seem to recall some good things happened.
Enjoy the highlights ...

And then there were two. Unsurprisingly the Los Angeles Dodgers are representing the National League and from a near flatline pulse the Toronto Blue Jays marooned the Mariners en route to their first World Series appearance since 1993. Pundits have quickly dismissed the series as a formality in which the Dodgers will female dog slap […]

By pretty much any metric you’d choose, the Chicago Cubs had a top five-ish offense this year in Major League Baseball, even as they suffered through significant dips at times throughout the season.
It’s unsurprising, then, that the Cubs are pretty well represented on the list of National League Silver Slugger finalists this year. From MLB.com :
First base: Pete Alonso, New York Mets; Freddie Freeman, Los Angeles Dodgers; Matt Olson, Atlanta Braves
Second base: Nico Hoerner, C...

George Springer’s three-run shot in Game 7 of the ALCS propelled the Blue Jays into a World Series matchup with the Dodgers, making this the fourth time since the start of 2018 that Los Angeles will face an AL East club in the Fall Classic.
