Here’s something interesting to ponder as we head into the long dark cold winter. Andy McCullough of the LATimes is reporting that the Dodgers could be contemplating trading switch-hitting catcher Yasmani Grandal this offseason. I know some of you are not very high on Grandal so this would make sense to a

I came into this game with high hopes as the World Series shifted to Houston for game 3. With the series tied and the Dodgers coming off a heart breaking loss in game 2 it seemed as if the Dodgers had the advantage in the third game with Yu Darvish

The Dodgers can wrap up the 2017 NLCS and clinch their first National League pennant in 29 years with one more win tonight over the sad sack Cubs in game 4 at Wrigley Field. This is of course a joyous scenario. The lame ass Cubs eliminated the Dodgers in the

The National League Championship Series shifts to Wrigley Field as the Dodgers fly into Chicago on top of the world. Justin Turner’s heroic and historic walk-off home run in game 2 has given the Dodgers a 2-0 series lead putting them only two wins away from their first pennant in

The Dodgers beat the Padres 9-3 on Monday evening at Dodger Stadium to win their 100 game of the season. Just to give you an example of how incredible this is I’ll tell you. The Dodgers have won 100 games in a season just two other times since 1958. This

At this point I’m over it. The Dodgers are going to clinch the division at some point over the next 11 or games but that doesn’t mean they’re World Series ready and it doesn’t even mean they are postseason ready. Because right now they can’t beat the worst teams in

Last night the Dodgers dropped their fifth game in a row, and fifth recent - with one more contest remaining - against the suddenly rampaging Arizona Diamondbacks. That said, don't despair, Dodgers fans, because there are some bright spots to be gleamed from last night's loss. First off the proverbial bat,

The Dodgers lost again to the Padres, pathetically I might add. The boys in blue dropped the second game of the double-header 7-2 on Saturday evening. The Dodgers continue to play like crap and are awful. The Dodgers have now lost 7 of their last 8 games and there seems

Rich Hill gave up five runs in the first inning and it was too much of a hole for the Dodger bats to dig themselves out of as they lost the series opener to the Dbacks 7-6 on Tuesday evening. Numberfire gave the Dodgers a 46.5% chance of winning the opening game

Players weekend was a hoot and the Dodgers made it even more of a hoot with an efficient 3-1 win over the Brewers in the series opener on Friday night. The Brewers missed out on a golden opportunity to pick up ground on the Cubs in the NL Central. The
