It’s probably safe to say that there wasn’t a Dodger fan on the planet who didn’t yell out “What’s he doing?” when Dodgers manager Dave Roberts removed right-hander Pedro Baez from Game-1 of the 2018 World Series in the bottom of the seventh inning. All the one-time Dodgers worst reliever, who miraculously resurrected his career over the […]

As we all know, NLCS Game-7 was very important for Dodgers fans. In fact, it was important to baseball fans in general. It was  a win-or-go-home situation; effectively, a one game playoff that can make dreams … or shatter them. After experiencing last year’s World Series Game-7, which I swear I will never bring up again, […]

Under the category of: ‘If it ain’t broke, don’t fix it,’ the Dodgers will be going with the same 25-man roster that got them through the National League Championship Series and into the Fall Classic. …with one exception. Added to the Dodgers bullpen is left-handed sinkerball (and hopefully ground ball / double play) specialist Scott Alexander, […]

As a surprise to absolutely no one, Dodgers manager Dave Roberts announced during Monday’s media session that his ace Clayton Kershaw will start Game-1 of the 2018 World Series at historic Fenway Park on Tuesday evening, opposite Red Sox left-hander Chris Sale. When asked about the significance of starting Game-1 of a World Series at […]

Dodgers right-hander and 2018 NLCS Game-7 starter Walker Buehler said it best: “That’s going to go down as one of the biggest catches in this organization’s history, man.” Dodgers center fielder and 2018 NLCS MVP Cody Bellinger concurs: “That was the catch of the year. I don’t know what would happen if he doesn’t make that […]

There is no one, absolutely no one, who condones what Dodgers shortstop Manny Machado did in Game-4 of the National League Championship Series last Tuesday when he intentionally kicked the foot of stretched out Milwaukee Brewers first baseman Jesus Aguilar during a routine ground out, causing both dugouts and bullpens to erupt into a near brawl. The potential […]

If you ever wondered who actually runs the Dodgers, you certainly shouldn’t any longer. It definitely isn’t manager Dave Roberts and is clearly Sabermetric-driven Dodgers president of baseball operations Andrew Friedman and general manager Farhan Zaidi. I mean, who in their right mind would remove the only guy in the Dodgers line-up of Game-6 of the […]

We’ve been hearing it for over two weeks now, nineteen days to be exact: “This is the most important game of the year for the Dodgers.” The first was on Monday, October 1, 2018, when Dave Roberts’ team was forced to play what will forever be known as “163” against the Colorado Rockies at Dodger […]

Over the course of 18 hours and 16 minutes, the Dodgers won Game-4 and Game-5 of the 2018 National League Championship Series at Dodger Stadium. But while Tuesday’s game ended up being a 13 inning / 5:15 hour 2-1 nail biter that left most Dodger fans thinking that Wednesday’s day game after a night game […]

It will forever be remembered as one of the greatest postseason games ever played. It took 13 innings and five hours and 15 minutes to complete. Combined, there were 16 total pitchers used who made a total of 381 pitches, while striking out 32 total batters. There were zero home runs, zero triples, and only […]
