In the big scheme of things, the Dodgers 1-0 win over the NL West fourth-place and long ago eliminated San Diego Padres on Thursday afternoon at Petco Park was as meaningless of any game the Dodgers have played all season. That is, of course, unless you think that having home-field advantage in the World Series […]

When the Dodgers signed right-hander Joe Kelly to a lofty 3-year / $25 million contract last December, they did so with one specific goal in mind – that he would do for the Dodgers what he did against them in the 2018 World Series as the primary set-up man for Boston Red Sox closer Craig […]

There is no disputing that 39-year-old left-hander Rich Hill is one of the nicest guys in the Dodgers clubhouse and an enormous inspiration to the entire pitching staff and team. But having missed a significant amount of time this season due to a multitude of injuries, is Dodgers manager Dave Roberts about to make a […]

The Dodgers have announced that Robert L. Plummer and Alan Smolinisky have joined its ownership group “The two newest members are both civic-minded, accomplished businessmen and lifelong Dodger fans,” said Dodgers Chairman and owner Mark Walter. “We are proud of having built a very strong ownership group, and Robert and Alan will certainly add to […]
