Finish line in sight: On the eve of visiting the Bronx
“I’m almost done.” It’s a weird feeling that has been simmering in my head these past few months. It has grown louder with each passing day. This life is a funny old life. I could never have imagined in April 2021 in Oakland that five and a half years later I would stand on the […]
Dodgers open second half against the New York Yankees
The Dodgers finally enjoy some good scheduling on the East Coast. Last season Dodger fans will remember that the team was in New York on back-to-back weekends but flying home for a series in between. This time, the All-Star Game was in Philly, with the team then starting a nine-game stretch of New York, Philly, […]
Dodgers notes: Trade deadline plans, Tarik Skubal, Shohei Ohtani
With the second half of the regular season now officially underway, the countdown for the trade deadline has begun. The Dodgers had a relatively lackluster trade deadline last season compared to previous seasons, with the only two notable moves made being the acquisitions of both outfielder Alex Call and right-handed reliever Brock Stewart. The front […]
Dodgers notes – Mookie Betts starts a glove company, what to look for in the second half
This past week, Mookie Betts surpassed the number of games he had played with the Boston Red Sox, officially making him Dodger longer than he was a Red Sox. Spanning those two teams, Betts has amassed six Gold Gloves. Now, he has started his own baseball glove company. Named LGND, Betts says this line is […]
Former Dodgers steal the show at 2026 All-Star Game
The 2026 All-Star Game festivities have come and gone. The dust has settled, and for the first time since 2024, the American League came away victorious by shutting out the National League 4-0 at Citizens Bank Park on Tuesday. Scoring was scarce on Tuesday, as the four runs the AL scored came in only two […]
American League shuts out National League 4-0
Last year the All-Star game was decided by a home run swing-off, to which the National League ultimately prevailed. This year, nine innings were more than enough for the American League to secure a shutout victory for their first All-Star Game win since 2024. Cristopher Sánchez gave the hometown crowd an electric start by striking […]

The lineups for the 2026 All-Star Game were released on Monday and just like last year’s lineup, three Dodgers will be starting for the National League at Citizens Bank Park in Philadelphia.

Dodgers notes – Andy Pages and Max Muncy on being All-Stars
Five Dodgers are in Philadelphia for the All-Star game on Tuesday, two of them first timers in Andy Pages and Justin Wrobleski. Sonja Chen of MLB.com covers why it should be Pages’ second All-Star nod. “It should be his second. I think he should have had it last year,” said Freddie Freeman, who will be […]
Jordan Walker’s walk-off to secure the Home Run Derby
Pressure? What pressure. Jordan Walker silenced the Philadelphia crowd with an outstanding display of power and poise in the final round to overcome Kyle Schwarber and take home the Home Run Derby. After homering in each of his final six swings, needing every single one of them, Walker became the first St. Louis Cardinals player […]
Dodgers on Deck: Friday, July 17 at Yankees
After the All-Star break, the Dodgers embark on a three-city, nine-game, 11-day road trip that will take them to New York, Philadelphia, then back to New York with a little stop in Washington D.C. in between. First up is The Bronx for a three-game series against the Yankees beginning Friday night at Yankee Stadium. The […]
MLB Home Run Derby chat
Just because there are no Dodgers involved doesn’t mean we can’t enjoy this Home Run Derby with a field that makes up in raw power what it might potentially lack in terms of star appeal. This year’s format has gone through some changes. Gone are the clocks, and the event will be split into three […]
Dodgers Week 16: Limping into the break
The Dodgers limped into the All-Star break with only two wins in their final six games at home. All three games against the Rockies were decided by a run and the Dodgers won two, but then they were swept by the Diamondbacks. Batter of the week Shohei Ohtani did not pitch this week, as he’s […]

Dodgers minors: Ryan Ward, Logan Wagner, Luis Carias
Dodgers outfielders Josue De Paula and Mike Sirota covered all seven innings in left field for the National League in Sunday’s MLB Futures Game in Philadelphia. De Paula played the first four innings and singled once in his two at-bats. Sirota struck out in his only at-bat, but much like Eric Gagne’s blown save in […]
Dodgers swept by Diamondbacks in lackluster weekend
The silver lining for the Dodgers on Sunday is that they did not lose in lopsided fashion. But they did fall to the Diamondbacks for a third consecutive day, this time a more conventional 5-3 win for Arizona that capped off a series sweep and a deflating final week before the All-Star break. Fielding miscues […]
Dodgers on Deck: All-Star Game, Tuesday in Philadelphia
The Dodgers have the best record in baseball at the All-Star break, and will be well represented at the All-Star Game on Tuesday night at Citizens Bank Park in Philadelphia.

Dodgers notes: Blake Snell, Tyler Glasnow, Yoshinobu Yamamoto
The Dodgers’ starting rotation has been one of the best in all of baseball this year in spite of the numerous injuries they’ve dealt with.
