The Dodgers fattened up on Milwaukee pitching on Saturday night with an impressive 10-6 victory to take a 2-1 series lead. The Dodger offense exploded and scored 10 runs on 14 hits as Justin Turner stayed hot slugging another home run and driving in three runs. Joc Pederson (who batted lead-off last

The first two games of the Dodgers/Brewers series were tough, back and forth affairs. Each team had come away with one win. Mike Bolsinger was set to pitch against Chase Anderson. They are both old friends, and Bolsinger was Best Man at Anderson's wedding. The big question was, which of the

The Dodgers rebounded quite nicely from their annoying 8-6 loss to the Brewers in the series opener. Justin Turner had quite a night as he continues his quest to turn his season around and troll Oscar in the process. Turner drove in all three runs for the Dodgers on Friday

The Dodger’s miserably average season continued with another disappointing loss on Thursday evening to the Brewers. Scott Kazmir got lit up like a Christmas tree, and bullpen torches Pedro Baez and Casey Fien poured gasoline on the fire. To be fair Fien has been pretty good until last night, but the Dodgers

After a six-game, .500 road trip, the Dodgers returned to Chavez Ravine (and Vin Scully) to take on the Brewers. Chase Utley returned to the lead off spot, Will Venable started in right field, and Scott Kazmir took the mound, with Yasmani Grandal as his battery mate. We'll pick up the

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

(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
