You know this was a winnable game until the Dodgers brought in the middle relievers in the fifth inning again. The game was at least within reach but when you’re forced to use a parade of middle relievers starting with Ross Stripling in the fifth inning then you get what

It looks like the Dodgers have their swagger back as they defeated the Nationals 3-2 to win their fourth consecutive game. The one-run victory gives them a series win and pushes the boys in blue to seven games in front of the Nationals for the top spot in the National

The Dodgers are certainly an interesting club wrapped up in an enigma. For three weeks they lost almost every game. They lost in many different ways. Some days they hardly showed up and were blown out. On other days the bats went cold and on other days the starting pitchers

The Dodgers are seemingly back to their winning ways, and that is thanks to Yu Darvish stepping up big against the hated ones. After pitching so lousy that talk of Darvish slipping downward in the Dodgers' postseason pitching plans began to swirl, the ex-ace showed signs tonight that he's still

We witness miracles rarely, but tonight on Tuesday September 12, 2017 (The year of our lord) we witnessed one. The clouds parted, the skies opened up and the oceans rumbled. Birds sang and soared through the night. The traffic on the 405 came to a halt. The Dodgers finally won

It's my job to observe and comment. I'm tasked with analyzing and opining. I'm a guy who loves to talk and write about baseball, but this team has left me speechless. How does one describe the worst slide in the history of a franchise? When it immediately follows the most

There are three things you can count on this life. Those three things are death, taxes, and the Dodgers losing in the first inning of a baseball game. That happened yet again on Sunday afternoon as the Dodgers lost their tenth consecutive game to the Rockies 8-1. The Dodgers continue

The Dodgers found another way to lose on Saturday night. Alex Wood gave up runs early, and the defense wasn't sharp. The offense is starting to show life and the bullpen has been solid lately. Instead of Dave Roberts worrying about why fans are booing Pedro Baez. Roberts needs to

Will this nightmare ever end? The Dodgers lose again 5-4 to the Rockies. The Dodgers have now lost 13 of 14. Last night Clayton Kershaw couldn't right the ship. So today with the return of Corey Seager, coupled with Yu Darvish on the mound, the Dodgers hoped to turn the

The due to lose/win factor is very important in baseball. No matter how good or bad a club is, they are always due to win or lose at some point. That’s what I was hoping for before the Dodgers and the dbacks played the series finale on Wednesday night at

Last night the Dodgers dropped their fifth game in a row, and fifth recent - with one more contest remaining - against the suddenly rampaging Arizona Diamondbacks. That said, don't despair, Dodgers fans, because there are some bright spots to be gleamed from last night's loss. First off the proverbial bat,

I’m running out of ways of explaining how much the Dodgers suck in written form. No matter how much of a wordsmith you think I might be, not even Walt Whitman can elaborate this collapse. The Dodgers rolled over like an orphaned puppy dog on Labor Day. On a day

The Big Blue Steamroller needs a tune up folks - maybe even an overhaul. It's the final month of the season, and the Dodgers look tired and lost. Lost on the mound and tired at the plate. Sure, there are some bright spots. Yasiel Puig is still earning a Gold Glove

The Dodgers lost again to the Padres, pathetically I might add. The boys in blue dropped the second game of the double-header 7-2 on Saturday evening. The Dodgers continue to play like crap and are awful. The Dodgers have now lost 7 of their last 8 games and there seems

I understand the Dodgers have a huge lead in the NL West and want to experiment and take a look at some of the youngsters. But if they don’t stop screwing around they’ll see their huge lead evaporate real quick. We’ve seen huge leads in September disappear before. It’s not

How long has it been since we last saw Clayton Kershaw atop the mound? After five long weeks, the greatest pitcher of a generation returned to lead his team, and as he has done countless times throughout his storied career, he stopped a Dodgers losing streak. The man was brilliant tonight.
