We’re all left with a sour taste in our mouths after Tuesday night’s 4-0 shutout loss to Clayton Richard and the Padres. It’s unbecoming for the exact same problems from 2016 to resurface in the second game of the season. The Dodgers were unable to get quality innings from their starting

The apologists should be out in full force on this one. Oh the excuses they will make. They’ll say that it’s early and to be patient. They’ll ask you to tip your cap to Clayton Richard (Clayton Richard!!!) because he pitched a great game. They’ll tell you that the Dodgers

Do you remember the 2003-2004 Dodgers? I sure do. It was a memorable time in Dodger land. The scummy McCourts had just purchased the Dodgers and the boys in blue were in the midst of breaking an 8-year postseason drought. The Dodgers had a fun club at that time too. Shawn

You know the Dodgers love a good reclamation project. They just can’t resist it; much like the guys on storage wars can’t resist buying storage lockers.

At this point we know that Andre Ethier will start the season on the disabled list alongside reliever Pedro Baez, southpaw Scott Kazmir, and right handed middle man Josh Ravin. I feel especially bad for Ravin. He had little to no shot to make the roster anyways, but last year
