You knew it was going to be one of those nights the moment Dodgers ace Clayton Kershaw made his first pitch on Thursday evening against the Angels of Anaheim in front of a sold out Angel Stadium. It was the final game of the annual Freeway Series against the Halos and the Dodgers were hoping […]

When Dodgers rookie sensation Cody Bellinger steps to the plate, there’s a pretty good chance that you are going to see him hit a home run. In fact, with his current National League best 24 home runs in his 248 major league plate appearances, he is averaging one home run for every 9.7 plate appearances, […]

To a degree it was understandable. After all, 23-year-old Angels rookie right-hander Keynan Middleton has only been in the major leagues for all of eight weeks, having made his major league debt with the halos on May 8, 2017 – almost two weeks to the day after Dodgers rookie phenom Cody Bellinger made his major league […]

As a surprise to absolutely no one, Dodgers outfielder / first baseman Cody Bellinger has been named the National League Player of the Week for the period ending June 25.

We’ve all seen it, at least those of us who have taken the time to look for it. Dodgers right fielder Yasiel Puig has finally grown into the baseball player that we all hoped he would one day become; except for the Puig haters, of course. Oh sure, the 26-year-old Cienfuegos, Cuba native still has his moments, […]

In a recent article, Washington Post reporter Neil Greenberg wrote that Washington Nationals right-hander Max Scherzer “is overtaking Clayton Kershaw as MLB’s best pitcher.” While it is impossible to argue that the 32-year-old Scherzer isn’t having a Cy-Young-caliber 2017 season, calling the two-time Cy Young award winner a better overall pitcher than Dodgers ace and four-time […]
