Dodgers Call on May to Stop the Bleeding
With yet another loss on Friday night, the 2020 World Series Champion Los Angeles Dodgers have now lost seven of their last 10 games and find themselves in second place in the National League West a half-game behind the San Francisco Giants. It’s not that the Dodgers’ pitching has been bad, quite the contrary, in […]
(Read More)There’s Incompetence, and Then There’s Angel Hernandez
If Hall of Famer Tommy Lasorda had been the Dodgers manager on Friday night when 28-year MLB umpire Angel Hernandez had called Dodgers centerfielder Chris Taylor out for swinging at a pitch that the entire viewing world could clearly see he did not swing at; or for a balk that Dodgers right-hander Jimmy Nelson did […]
(Read More)Is Mookie Betts Broken?
Let’s be honest here; we are all spoiled by superstar future Hall of Fame outfielder Mookie Betts. Even those who were outraged when the Dodgers signed him to a ludicrous 12-year/$365 million contract extension on July 22, 2020, soon came to realize that their beloved team would not have won the 2020 World Series without […]
(Read More)May the Force Awaken
April 2021, the World Champion Los Angeles Dodgers started the regular season as the dominating force in Major League Baseball, winning 13-times in their first 15-games.

Two hundred thirty-two million COVID-19 vaccinations have been administered in the United States. There are roughly 96 million fully vaccinated individuals in the United States, about 30% of the population. As the 2021 baseball season began, members of the media questioned players in regards to being vaccinated or not. Many (most) players would not reply […]
(Read More)Where’s AJ?
If you are among those wondering where Dodgers outfielder AJ Pollock was during Monday night’s disastrous 10-inning 5-3 loss to the NL East last-place Cincinnati Reds at Dodger Stadium and wondering why he is not in Tuesday’s starting lineup against those same Reds, you are not alone. During his pregame Zoom media briefing on Tuesday […]
(Read More)The Other Kenley is Back … Again
Try as we may, we all knew it would happen – ‘The Bad Kenley Jansen‘ returned a mere two days after ‘The Mad Kenley Jansen’ had notched his fifth save of the season (to go along with his one blown save), picking up his first loss of the season to the NL East last-place Cincinnati […]
(Read More)A Nightmare on Vin Scully Avenue
You would think that given a six-run lead heading into the seventh inning, the defending 2020 World Series Champions – a team referred to by many as the best team in all of baseball this season and among the best ever – would be unbeatable. You would think. They were not. After six innings of […]
(Read More)‘Rick Monday… You Made a Great Play’
Hard to believe it’s been 45 years … to the day. On this date in 1976, former Dodgers outfielder Rick Monday, then a member of the Chicago Cubs, prevented two protestors who had run onto the field at Dodger Stadium, from burning an American flag after dousing it with lighter fluid. Monday, a former United […]
