Although the Dodgers lost the final game of their three-game interleague series against the American League Central third place Detroit Tigers by a score of 4-2 at Dodger Stadium on Wednesday night, it most certainly wasn’t for lack of effort. While 24-year-old Dodgers right-hander Bobby Miller allowed two runs on three hits and was charged […]

Since clinching their 10th National League West Division title in the last 11 seasons, the Dodgers haven’t had any so-called ‘must-win’ games. That being said, Dodgers manager Dave Roberts‘ team can ill afford to lay back on their laurels for any of their remaining regular-season games – not one of them. Instead, they must do […]

It’s a term often heard by DJs (Google it, kids) back in the 60s and 70s, when they actually played disks (records): “And The Hits Just Keep On Coming!” This, of course, was two decades before 36-year-old Dodgers outfielder J.D. Martinez was even born. But you certainly wouldn’t know it by the way the popular […]

Every time the Dodgers take the field, it is pretty much a given that something exciting is going to happen with Mookie Betts, Freddie Freeman and every fifth day Clayton Kershaw, and why wouldn’t it? All three will one day grace the sacred Halls in Cooperstown once their playing days are over, and probably the […]

Let’s be honest here, since Opening Day 2023, it was never a matter of if the Dodgers were going to win the 2023 National League West Division, but when. In the simplest of terms and meaning no disrespect to them, the Arizona Diamondbacks, San Francisco Giants, San Diego Padres or Colorado Rockies simply couldn’t hold […]

It is a well established and very much accepted fact that the Dodgers would not be where they are today were it not for future Hall of Famers Mookie Betts and Freddie Freeman – period. But even the very best of the very best have an occasional off day, albeit not very often. Take Friday […]

When news broke on Thursday morning that the Boston Red Sox had fired Chief Baseball Officer Chaim Bloom, you could hear a collective “What took so long?” echoing throughout the streets of Boston … and the entire baseball world. Although there may be some – or perhaps many – unfamiliar with the name Chaim Bloom, he […]

  *  *  *  “Just a bad pitch on an 0 and 2 count. Center cut” (Former Dodgers outfielder and current AM 570 broadcaster Rick Monday)   *  *  *  *  When it was announced on Tuesday that the Dodgers had recalled 26-year-old right-hander Ryan Pepiot from Triple-A Oklahoma City and that he would start […]

When news broke late Tuesday morning that the Dodgers had called up right-hander Kyle Hurt from Triple-A Oklahoma City, it’s probably safe to say that a lot of Dodgers fans said “Who?” But it’s probably safe to say that a lot of Dodgers fans – if not all of them – now know exactly who […]

Monday night’s ugly loss by the (now) 87-56 National League West first-place Los Angeles Dodgers to the (now) 68-77 fourth-place division-rival San Diego Padres ranks right up there as one of the ugliest of season. Not only were the Dodgers outscored and outhit 11-8 and 14-9 respectively by the Padres, the normally flawless Dodgers defense […]
