During his postgame Zoom media session after his brilliant 7-0 / one-hit shutout against the Colorado Rockies at Dodger Stadium on Tuesday night, Dodgers right-hander Trevor Bauer was asked the inevitable question about the widespread reports that he was under investigation by Major League Baseball for allegedly doctoring baseballs with a foreign substance. The allegations […]

After missing four games due to lower back tightness, All-Star right fielder Mookie Betts returned to the Dodgers starting lineup for Tuesday’s series opener against the Colorado Rockies at Dodger Stadium. “I don’t know exactly what happened, but it was kind of bugging me running,” Betts said during his Zoom media session prior to Tuesday’s […]

As is often the case, during his pregame Zoom media session on Sunday morning, a good many of the questions asked of Dodgers manager Dave Roberts centered around pitching, especially about rehabbing 26-year-old Dodgers right-hander Tony Gonsolin, who is currently on the 10-day injured list for inflammation in his right (throwing) shoulder. “He’s still a […]

It’s one of those things that those in the Vin Scully Press Box at Dodger Stadium on days that Dodgers ace and future Hall of Famer Clayton Kershaw pitches are (very) blessed to witness – and it has nothing to do with the just-concluded game. …or with baseball itself. Following those rare day games – […]

We’ve all heard it … ad nauseam: “Zach McKinstry is Kiké Hernández’s replacement.” No. He. Is. Not. Dodgers utility player Zach McKinstry is the guy who is 9-for-28 (.321) with two home runs, four doubles, 10 RBI, and has made several outstanding – if not impossible – defensive plays in the nine (of 10) games […]

It has become his mantra, coined by Dodgers manager Dave Roberts: “Zach McKinstry is a baseball player.” Indeed he is. Through the Dodgers first nine games, the soon-to-be (on April 29) 26-year-old Toledo, OH native and Dodgers 33rd-round draft pick in 2016 out of Central Michigan University is 7-for–25 (.280) with three doubles, one home run, […]

When a team is forced to temporarily replace players the caliber of Cody Bellinger and Mookie Betts, it is expected that the win-loss record will suffer, but that has not been the case for the Dodgers. With Chris Taylor more than filling in for Bellinger, and Zach McKinstry doing his best to imitate Betts, the […]

The Dodgers have claimed right-handed pitcher Ashton Goudeau off waivers from the San Francisco Giants. Goudeau, 28, made his Major League debut last season with the Colorado Rockies, going 0-0 with a 7.56 ERA (7 ER/8.1 IP) and two strikeouts in four games. In eight minor league seasons, he is a combined 29-48 with a […]

Friday afternoon at Dodger Stadium was a memorable day for many reasons. Games took on a different feel during the 2020 Covid-19-shortened season while teams battled it out through a unique 60-game regular season – without fans in attendance. For the first time since October 2019, fans were allowed inside the stadium to watch the […]
