Logan Forsythe was a big part of the Dodgers' plans to chase down a pennant, and ultimately, a World Series Championship when they traded away pitching prospect Jose De Leon to Tampa Bay.

Last night's dramatic, extra innings, come from behind, new hero every night win, that completed the sweep of the hated Giants, contained everything this impossibly magical season has given to the Dodgers and their amazed fans.

At some point the Dodgers will lose and it will suck. Until then the Dodgers can’t lose even when they try to lose. For example before Sunday afternoon’s 3-2 win over the Marlins, the Dodgers wrote in two automatic outs in the bottom of their lazy getaway day lineup. Kike

Don't get me wrong, I'm usually a cheerleader for Dodgers manager Dave Roberts, but not tonight. In this first game of a three-game series against the St. Louis Cardinals, the skipper messed up big time. He made two ridiculous - and monumental - decisions that cost the Dodgers a nine-inning

The Dodgers lineup against the Rockies tonight in the home stand finale is almost entirely consisting of minor leaguers, journeymen, and utility players as the club shockingly places two players on the disabled list.
