MVP Lost? – Maybe Not
May 31st, 2012 at 12:26 pm by Ron Cervenka It’s simple really. Cold, painfully, depressingly simple. Matt Kemp will not be the 2012 NL MVP. Matt Kemp will not go 50-50 or even 40-40 this season. Matt Kemp probably will not play in the 2012 All-Start Game and he more than likely will not win a Gold Glove or a Silver Slugger award this […]

Kemp Re-injures Hamstring – Return to DL Imminent
May 31st, 2012 at 1:20 am by Ron Cervenka In only his second game back from the disabled list, Dodger center fielder re-injured his left hamstring while running from first to home on an Andre Ethier double.

I have to admit that when Kennedy, who also managed in the Dodgers minor league system, first added this segment to […]

Dodgers Release Photos of Upcoming Vin Scully Bobble Head
May 29th, 2012 at 2:56 pm by Ron Cervenka It is a well know fact that Hall of Fame Dodger broadcaster Vin Scully has adamantly opposed having a bobble head in his likeness released, this in spite of the cries from thousands of fans demanding one for decades.

Down on the Farm – Quakes Crack the Nuts
May 29th, 2012 at 9:01 am by Ron Cervenka I know… I know… it’s a dumb title and one that has undoubtedly been used countless times, but what else can you say about a 12-2 shellacking, which is what the Rancho Cucamonga Quakes did to the Modesto Nuts (Rockies) on Monday afternoon. The Quakes collected 16 hits on the day with every Quakes player in […]

Dodgers Place Lilly on 15-Day Disabled List – Call Eovaldi Up from Chattanooga
May 29th, 2012 at 12:05 am by Ron Cervenka The Dodgers have placed left-handed pitcher Ted Lilly on the 15-day disabled list (retroactive to May 24) with left shoulder inflammation and recalled left-hander Michael Antonini to fill Lilly’s roster spot as a possible long reliever for Monday evening’s game, but he was not needed. The Dodgers then (apparently) sent Antonini back to Triple-A Albuquerque […]
