Almost two seasons ago, I was watching a Dodgers telecast where announcer Joe Davis and play-by-play analyst Orel Hershiser commented about one of the two main food promotions associated with the Dodgers: the “free” Jumbo Jack with the purchase of a large drink at participating Jack in the Box restaurants, the day after the Dodgers […]

Last season, a corner outfielder wearing the jersey no. 23 got off to a rough start in his first year as a Dodgers. This season, a shiny new corner outfielder wearing no. 23 has gotten off to an equally frustrating start. Kyle Tucker was signed to be that impact corner outfielder at the top of […]
The Dodgers made a trade on their off day Thursday, acquiring right-handed pitcher Chayce McDermott from the Baltimore Orioles in exchange for minor league pitcher Axel Perez.

Player of the day Two hits were all that Jaron Elkins needed to stand out […]

Since the statue of Jackie Robinson was installed in 2017, Manager Dav Roberts has held a moment of celebration and […]
Meet the Mets The Mets were swept by the Dodgers with the offense failing to show up once again. Clay Holmes was solid in his start but the bullpen collapsed to turn it into a blowout loss that is now the team’s eighth in a row. Choose your recap: Amazin’ Avenue, MLB.com, Newsday, NY Post […]
The Mets had lost seven in a row, including the first two games of the series against the Dodgers. Clay Holmes was taking the mound against Shohei Ohtani, who had a 0.00 ERA up to that point in the season. The Mets needed to change that to change their own fortunes, as they had been […]

So far this homestand, the Los Angeles Dodgers have quietly handled the New York Mets, with the pitching staff allowing only one run in 18 innings. The run was a leadoff shot from Francisco Lindor off of Yoshinobu Yamamoto in Tuesday’s game, and otherwise no Met has crossed the plate in L.A. Wednesday the Dodgers […]
The three primary minor league teams for the Dodger organization took care of business on Tuesday by winning close matchups; meanwhile, the Ontario Tower Buzzers had a forgetful game against Fresno, committing four errors and twice allowing eight runs in a half inning en route to a blowout defeat. Player of the day A couple […]
Davey Lopes, the late-blooming star of the Dodgers’ 1970s dynasty, passed away on April 8 at the age of 80. Lopes had no connection to the Royals, but his story is worth a closer examination. Lopes was born and raised in Providence, Rhode Island, and played high school baseball for the LaSalle Academy. Getting noticed […]
Morning, all! After a rough start to the season, Nathan Eovaldi threw seven shutout innings to the A’s on Monday. Josh Sborz needs to be added to the 40 man roster today or he will be available for all 29 major league teams to claim, though doing so will require removing someone. The Rangers started […]

In the best pitching duel the Dodgers have seen so far this season, Yoshinobu Yamamoto went toe-to-toe with New York Mets right-hander Nolan McLean and continued the trend of starting pitching giving Mets hitters headaches. Yamamoto got ambushed immediately by Francisco Lindor, allowing a leadoff home run on his third pitch of the game, but […]
It’s easy to panic early in the regular season. As the sample size of plate appearances continues to grow and success isn’t consistent, the temptation to pull the rip cord on certain young players grows ever more tempting. However, there is a difference between a player floundering and a player who just isn’t catching the […]
The pitchers’ duel that was advertised delivered and then some, with both the Mets and Dodgers getting stellar starts, in a nail biter of a game that, unfortuantely, didn’t break the Mets’ way. A 2-1 loss is never easy to take, but especially not when your ace pitches the game of his young career in […]
LOS ANGELES — Yoshinobu Yamamoto and Nolan McLean engaged in a wonderful pitching duel on Tuesday night at Dodger Stadium, pitchers with different styles but equally vast repertoires, and both exceedingly difficult to score against. Offenses were kept mostly at bay until the eighth inning, when both teams threatened but only the Dodgers were able […]
Kenley Jansen needed little introduction when the Detroit Tigers signed the 38-year-old closer to a free agent deal back in December. He’s one of the truly great relievers in the game’s long history. The one year, $9 million deal was a pretty reasonably price for an all-time great even on the downside of his career. […]
