What was your favorite moment from the Dodgers’ 2026 season?

The Dodgers 2026 season ended last week, a few weeks shorter than they hoped. This was a shorter season than the last two championship runs because of not only playing in the World Series, but also starting spring training early and starting the regular season early with trips to Asia in both 2024 and 2025. […]

Dodgers catcher Ben Rortvedt elects free agency

Intermittent Dodgers catcher Ben Rortvedt is a free agent again, opting for free agency on Saturday after getting sent outright to the minors and off the 40-man roster in September. Rortvedt was acquired by the Dodgers while off the 40-man roster at each of the last two trade deadlines, and filled in while both Will […]

Dodgers notes: Shohei Ohtani, NLCS symmetry, Savannah Bananas

Waking up on a Monday morning knowing we’ll know the full World Series matchup. The Tampa Bay Rays return home up three games to two on the Cleveland Guardians, with Game 6 on Monday night at Tropicana Field. Game 1 of the World Series is Friday night in Milwaukee. Here are a few Dodgers-related and […]

Dodgers notes: Tarik Skubal, Shohei Ohtani, Miguel Rojas

The Dodgers are on the outside looking in to see how the fates of three remaining teams in the postseason play out. While the 2026 World Series gets underway, the Dodgers will now be focusing on how they will operate either before or after the impending lockout. Nine players that were on the 2026 team […]

Shohei Ohtani plans to pitch again in 2027

LOS ANGELES — There was a lot of uncertainty surrounding Shohei Ohtani for the last two-plus months of the 2026 season, and now that the offseason is here there isn’t yet much clarity. The Dodgers superstar dealt with left knee issues dating back to June, which initially shut his pitching down after his July 3 […]

The power of the 3-inning save

LOS ANGELES — The Dodgers did not have a save of at least three innings in 2026, their first full season without one since 2016. They also did not win or reach the World Series this year. Coincidence? Yes, of course. Let’s not be daft. But three-inning saves are still cool as hell, as I’ve […]

Even a four-run lead wasn’t good enough against the Brewers

The quest for a three peat is over. The Commissioner’s Trophy will find a new home. A year after the Dodgers swept the Milwaukee Brewers in the 2025 NLCS, Milwaukee returned the favor with a four-game sweep over the defending two-time champions, marking their first World Series appearance since 1982. The best team in the […]

Dodger Stadium, the place for pennants of late

LOS ANGELES — Dodger Stadium joined a select group of baseball stadiums on Thursday, when the Milwaukee Brewers swept the Dodgers to earn a trip to the World Series for the first time since 1982. The stadium at Chavez Ravine is only the fourth MLB ballpark since the start of divisional play to have three […]

Here are the results and details of every Los Angeles Dodgers game for 2026, from the beginning of the regular season through the National League Championship Series.

Switching roles; starter lets down the offense in Game 4

When a team as talented as the Dodgers gets swept in a four-game series, there are so many things that have to go wrong for that to happen—even in Game 4 alone, you could probably point to several mistakes, letdowns, and a bit of bad luck as to why the result went the way it […]

Dodgers 2026 offseason roster breakdown

The Dodgers 2026 season has ended, so it’s now time to focus on what figures to be a tumultuous offseason with the Major League Baseball collective bargaining agreement expiring on December 1. But before we get to the lockout, there are still roster decisions to be made, so let’s see how the Dodgers look at […]

Reactions to the Milwaukee Brewers sweeping the Dodgers in the NLCS

Only two teams can make the dance. For the first time in three years, the Dodgers aren’t one of those two teams. The Milwaukee Brewers completed a four-game NLCS sweep over the Dodgers on Thursday, reaching the World Series for the first time in 44 years. This officially closes the book on the team’s gaudy […]

Miguel Rojas retires as a player after 13 seasons

LOS ANGELES — The Dodgers clubhouse after they lost Game 4 of the National League Championship Series was closed for quite some time before opening to media. Once the clubhouse opened, some players were getting dressed or already dressed, winding down after the end of their season. Infielder Miguel Rojas was still at his locker […]

Shohei Ohtani back at leadoff, Rojas and Kiké start in NLCS Game 4

The Dodgers are in an unfamiliar position entering Thursday, teetering on the brink of elimination after having dropped the first three games of the NLCS to the Milwaukee Brewers. The Dodgers managed to get some production with runners in scoring position in Game 3 to take a 2-1 lead, only to have it short-lived with […]

An ace in the hole in more ways than one

The Dodgers must win to stave off elimination for at least a day, but in order to do that, they must score, which hasn’t been an easy task in this series against the Brewers. So much is made of this team’s superior resources, and in a game such as this one—more than ever—the stage is […]

Dodgers face near impossibility trailing Brewers 3-0

LOS ANGELES — The Dodgers are the 43rd team in MLB postseason history to trail 3-0 in a best-of-7 series. Of the previous 42 such instances, 32 ended in a sweep. The Brewers can clinch a pennant as early as Thursday night in Game 4 of the National League Championship at Dodger Stadium. “We’ve just […]

Dodgers offense is grasping at straws

The Dodgers offense was always facing a difficult task in this NLCS, but their production, or lack thereof, goes beyond any praise the Brewers’ staff may deserve. The Game 3 loss and what the Brewers did offensively against Blake Snell represented an ideal example of what one might reasonably expect from this Dodgers attack: resilience […]

Because if not now, when?

Stop me if you’ve heard this one: A Dodger left-hander, who put video game-like numbers in the regular season, had a colossal dud in arguably the most important game of the year, in no small part by being left to hang out to dry in the seventh inning, before a back-breaking, likely season-breaking, home run. […]

Dodger notes – Dodgers have one shot to save season

The Los Angeles Dodgers find themselves on the brink of elimination and are watching their World Series hopes come to an end. As Bill Shakin of the L.A. Times details, pretty much all of the moves that manager Dave Roberts made in Game 3 came back to bite him in the patookus. From non-pitching changes […]

How to watch Dodgers vs. Brewers NLCS Game 4

The Dodgers are one loss away from getting swept in the postseason for the first time since the 2023 NLDS against the Diamondbacks. No matter how you want to slice it, they’ve looked inferior in every facet of the game in this series, from situational hitting to defense, bullpen work, and so on—now it’ll be […]

MLB playoffs schedule: ALCS shifts to Cleveland

Thursday brings us two games on the postseason schedule, both of which had their start times altered due to bad weather in Cleveland. Game 3 of the American League Championship Series between the Tampa Bay Rays and Cleveland Guardians was originally slated for a 6 p.m. local start at Progressive Field in Cleveland (3 p.m. […]
