The same cannot be said of 24-year-old left-hander Justin Wrobleski, who quite possibly pitched himself into/onto both. During Friday evening’s 6-4 […]

In their 5-3 win over the Angels at Tempe Diablo Stadium on Wednesday, a couple of those difficult decisions may […]

Sasaki to Make Much Anticipated Dodgers Debut


Of this off-season’s moves by the Dodgers, perhaps none was more celebrated by Dodgers fans than last week’s signing of 23-year-old phenom right-hander Roki Sasaki, this after his four outstanding seasons with the Nippon Professional Baseball (NPB) Chiba Lotte Marines.

But it wasn’t just another Freddie Freeman home run, it was a monster Freddie […]

A Great Send


Oh sure, Friday night’s bottom-of-the-ninth 6-5 Dodgers walk-off win over the Anaheim Angels of Anaheim was just another “meaningless Spring Training game.” But for the 12,271 on hand at Camelback Ranch, and the millions more watching on SportsNet LA, they got to witness – yet again – why soon-to-be (on March 20) 59-year-old Dodgers third […]

Dodgers Lose – But Win


The Dodgers lost their Spring Training game against the Colorado Rockies by a score of 2-0 at Salt River Fields on Thursday afternoon. That’s the bad news. The good great news is that 35-year-old veteran eight-time All-Star first baseman Freddie Freeman went 1-for-2 in his 2025 Cactus League debut as the Dodgers designated hitter with […]

Snell Sharp In Spring Training Debut


Although 32-year-old Dodgers right-hander Blake Snell needed 30 pitches to the four Seattle Mariners batters he faced in his 2025 Spring Training – and Dodgers – debut on Tuesday afternoon, 20 of those were strikes.

It’s Still Early


It’s something that we hear often this time of year: “Spring Training games are meaningless games,” and “It’s still early.” But what’s ironic is that you rarely (if ever) hear it from fans of teams that are atop their respective Spring Training leagues, be it the Grapefruit League or the Cactus League.
