The Dodgers stagnant season continues as the boys in blue must once again turn to Clayton Kershaw to stop a losing streak. The Dodgers had won six in a row before they punted away Friday’s game by starting random bum Nick Tepesch, who was predictably horrendous in the Dodger’s 8-6

Tonight's game was supposed to be the big showdown between the National League's two big guns, Clayton Kershaw and Stephen Strasburg. It was a match up so anticipated, that Vin Scully braved a sore throat to come in to work. Like many of us, Scully was anticipating a great game. However,

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

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

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

Stark reality came crashing down upon the Dodgers in their pathetically predictable 6-1 loss to the Rockies in Monday evening’s series opener.

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
