Twenty-five-year-old Dodgers outfielder / pinch-hitter Jonny Deluca has had exactly 36 official at-bats in his thus far 22-game / 46-day MLB career. The Thousand Oaks, CA native and Dodgers 25th round draft pick in 2019 (that’s not a typo) out of the University of Oregon has nine hits in those 36 at-bats, two of which were […]

As fans of the game know, baseball is a game of failures. Players will fail more times than they succeed – look at the statistics for batting averages. And yet people will spend their lives either playing or watching the National Pastime. The Dodgers have a unique dynamic this year with their own successes and […]

Remember that name Dodgers (and baseball) fans – it’s Jonny Deluca, no h. You can bet that Texas Rangers center fielder Leody Taveras and Rangers second baseman Marcus Semien will remember it – forever.

No one wants to say it or even think it, but there is something wrong with extremely popular Dodgers left-hander Julio Urías – something seriously wrong. For the fifth time in his thus far 14 starts this season, the 26-year-old Culiacan, Mexico native, who the Dodgers signed as an amateur free agent on August 17, 2012, […]

The initial plan was to have some type of clever title for this piece about the excellent pitching performance by 26-year-old Dodgers right-hander Michael Grove in the Dodgers 10-3 pounding of the Baltimore Orioles at Camden Yards on Tuesday; something witty like ‘Grove Back in the Groove.’ But an unforeseen and unfortunate injury to 32-year-old […]

Dodgers utility infielder/outfielder Chris Taylor is one of those guys that Dodgers fans seem to either really really like or really really don’t, for whatever their personal reasons. But whichever Chris Taylor camp you are in, it is impossible not be impressed with his uncanny knack for coming up with an insanely crucial hit, run, […]

It would be a true blockbuster deal! Crosstown (but geographically incorrectly named) antagonists making a trade-deadline transaction that would be remembered for decades – or longer – as ‘The Trade.’ The Dodgers would immediately become heavy favorites to win the 2023 World Series – and 2024, 2025… while the Angels position themselves to finally become a […]
