The Dodgers rebounded nicely after losing the first game of the series and on Wednesday afternoon defeated the snakes by a 3-2 score and took two out of three games in the desert. As expected the Dodgers fielded some of their B-squad, and it was one of those B-squaders that provided the Dodgers

The machinations behind the Dodgers daily line ups absolutely baffle me. Let's use yesterday's game against the Diamondbacks as an example. On one hand, the Dodgers made a smart move by dropping Adrian Gonzalez down to fifth in the batting order. I've called for that for the past few weeks. We

I say this because you and I know full well that Dave Roberts is going to play the entire B-squad during the rubber game against the Snakes on getaway day. Will Venable, Scott Van Slyke, A.J. Ellis, and the execrable Kike Hernandez will all probably be in the lineup. That

The Dodgers successfully punted away another game on Monday evening in Arizona as they lost 3-2 to Zack Greinke and the Dbacks. The Dodgers once again scored only 2 runs as Andrew Friedman and Farhan Zaidi keep scratching their heads as to how to turn the Dodgers into a contending club. Newsflash

Just as I expected and feared the Dodgers dropped the last two consecutive games to the Giants, dropping to five games behind and leaving town worse than when they came in. At this point I feel no need to try and be “positive” or blow smoke up anyone’s butt. This is just not

The Dodger’s front office may be incompetent, the coaching staff useless and the manager clueless, but the players are really 100% at fault for the club’s season long malaise. They keep making terrible baseball decisions during games when the Dodgers need them to make smarter choices. Case in point was

Kenley Jansen decided he wanted to get into the act of blowing games himself and ruining poor Oscar's BBQ in the process during the Dodger’s pitiful 5-4 loss to the Giants on Saturday. Kenley is one of the greatest Dodger closers of all time and had only blown those two games in San

The Dodgers won the first game of the weekend series against the Giants with a little help from ninth inning heroics from Justin Turner and Clayton Kershaw's thirteen strike outs. They didn't have the benefit of Kershaw again, so Scott Kazmir and his up and down pitching abilities would have

Kenley Jansen nearly gave us all a heart attack on Friday night, but the Dodgers hung on to defeat the Giants by a 3-2 score. The Clayton Kershaw versus Johnny Cueto duel ended in a draw. Surprisingly it was Justin Turner’s clutch solo home run in the top of the ninth off

The Dodgers will open up an important three game series against the Giants in the lion’s den of At&t Park on Friday evening. The Dodgers still are unable to hit at all, scoring just 5 runs in the previous three game series against the Rockies. The Dodgers now rank 27th

Probably not. In Robert's defense I think it's become a sick addiction for him. He must play the terrible hitters against left handers. I think he may need to attend mendoza line hitter's anonymous. Oscar should really pursue a job as a motivational speaker. Because after he wrote this article about Justin Turner. The

Dodger’s super kid 19-year old left hander Julio Urias will try it again on Tuesday evening in game 2 against the Rockies at Dodger Stadium. This will be the third career start for Urias, and his first appearance at Chavez Ravine. Hopefully being in front of the home crowd helps

Stark reality came crashing down upon the Dodgers in their pathetically predictable 6-1 loss to the Rockies in Monday evening’s series opener. Mike Bolsinger was unsurprsingly below average allowing six earned runs and two home runs to Colorado through 5.1 innings. Bolsinger isn’t the greatest pitcher in the world. That much is widely

The Dodgers will go for their sixth consecutive home win tonight against Colorado as the Rockies come into town for a three game series. The Dodgers completed a sweep of the Braves on Sunday afternoon with a 12-6 win. The Dodgers slugged another four home runs on Sunday. Corey Seager blasted

Today is quite an important day in the Dodger’s 2016 baseball season. Not because the Dodgers won their 30th game of the season in last night’s 4-0 shutout win over the Braves. Today is an epically important day because today is the first day of the post Carl Crawford era. The shocking

The Dodgers slugged four home runs on Friday evening that included three from Corey Seager to defeat the Braves 4-2. The Braves are the worst club in the National league of course, but still a win is a win. Beggars can't be choosers. This is a good time to fatten up on
