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

(Our sponsors are back, with a very unique article about how Dodger baseball and a popular television show saved him from being accused of a crime he did not commit.) As soon as HBO announced the return of ‘Curb Your Enthusiasm’ on Tuesday for the ninth season, the internet rejoiced, including online MLB sports betting

The twin dimwits in the front office have gone dumpster diving once again, and this time they’ve found some prime trash. For whatever reason the duo has decided to sign left handed hitting outfielder Will Venable to a major league contract. The 33-year old will go right onto the major

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

Zack Greinke was the one the Dodgers let get away (to Arizona). Like a true mercenary, Greinke chased the dollars to the desert, and many in LA were smug and satisfied when he began 2016 in the worst way possible. Greinke was shelled mercilessly early in the season, but the

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

The Dodgers are idle on Thursday and should be flying up to San Francisco to prepare for a three game series over the weekend. While the boys in blue are off licking their wounds after their pathetic series loss to the Rockies, the MLB draft is going on in the background. The Dodgers

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

There's no other explanation for it. Somebody must be turning the screws on Farhan Zaidi and Dave Roberts, forcing them to keep the light to non-hitting Justin Turner in prime spots of the Dodgers' batting order. Despite never returning as the power hitter he was last season, and not making contact

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
