Disagree, not disagreeable
Glasnow (shoulder) will begin a minor-league rehab assignment with Triple-A Oklahoma City on Sunday, Fabian Ardaya of The Athletic reports.
“Glasnow tossed about 40 pitches in a sim game Tuesday, and he’s now ready to progress to game action. The veteran righty is expected to log two innings in his initial rehab start Sunday, according to Dodgers manager Dave Roberts, and is slated for at least three rehab outings before coming off the injured list. Glasnow has been on the IL since late April, and though he’s coming up on eligibility to be activated, his timeline suggests early July as a best-case scenario”.
Manager Dave Roberts said Friday that Sasaki (shoulder) has restarted his throwing program by playing catch from 60-90 feet out, Fabian Ardaya of The Athletic reports.
“Sasaki paused his throwing program last week due to feeling uncomfortable ramping up to full intensity, but he’ll now give it another shot after sitting down for a few days. The 23-year-old righty will likely remain without a defined return timeline until he begins throwing off a mound or facing hitters, but he’s guaranteed to be out through the All-Star break after moving to the 60-day IL on Friday”.
Buster Olney:
“Suspensions for the Padres-Dodgers machinations:
Reliever Robert Suarez 3 games (but he’s appealing and will be eligible until that appeal is heard).
Padres Manager Mike Shildt gets a one-game suspension and fine.
Dodgers Manager Dave Roberts gets a one-game suspension and fine.
Roberts and Shildt will serve their suspensions tonight”.

KERSHAW day! Well i won’t get to watch it because of the mlb stupid blackout rule! i live 5 1/2 hours from d.c. so i dont have masn cable on my cable provider, so i get the shaft! And yes i have mlb package, but it is still blocked from my viewing pleasure! so since i’m in eastern standard time, i can wait till 2am and watch! whoooopeeee! Damn i’m lucky! Well Clayton, keep it rolling tonight! … I just don’t understand all the negativity towards Manny. He’s such a sweetheart of a guy! Don’t hit him in the head or face , it might make him better looking! seriously, enough of the hitting batters. But high praise for Doc! love the fire!
Dodgers are trading for LHP Zach Penrod from the Red Sox per MLBTR. Return to the Sox not known yet. Penrod was DFAd in the wake of the Devers trade. He has been at AAA after an elbow issue sidelined him for about 3 months. He most likely will be sent to AAA OKC as he has pitched just 7.1 innings at AAA.
It’s a shame I can no longer express what I think of that team of good and talented SD players. After all, they are very good people, very beloved players.
Now I understand why many of you are so afraid of that team, I shuddered in terror when I read this:
Manny Machado says the Dodgers should “pray” that Fernando Tatis Jr.’s X-rays come back clean.
I’M AFRAID!
I don’t know how much I will be around this weekend (I will be watching the Pacers Sunday night), but the wife and I are in Mountain View, California, for the weekend. We return home Monday night. Out here to see her family. Maybe go into SF on Monday! I want to know if they are cleaning it up.
Mike Shildt is a tool.
That is all oh and…..
Happy Kershaw day to all that partake!

I’d like to see Kopech put one in Machado’s ribs.
Put Rushing in left.
Let Conforto go. (or a bench player)
Bring up Hunter Feduccia to backup Smith
I agree on the hangnail IL stint for Yamamoto. With others returning and the Dodgers in their current position, it’s a good time to hangnail. Maybe he can get designated as an AS and then hangnail it, using part of that time in his 10 days. I have an untrained eye but he seems to be almost 2 mph down. The splitter doesn’t feel as wicked as it did in April. His curveball looks good. I wonder what the batting averages are against his different pitches? He’s a good guy and we need to give him every resource to shine.
It’s time for Yamamota to develop a hang nasil infection and head to the IL for some R&R. Not the same pitcher as he was earlier in the season. When he returns,he needs to have full 7(SEVEN) days rest between starts when he is most effective according to his stats.
I think there is some real hate between the two NL West managers. Something I haven’t seen in Doc. Dodgers needed a little Lasorda in the clubhouse and the Pods provided it. Little started a fight in his first MLB game. Baptism by fire. He has some serious composure and guts, pitching well after the mele. Instant acceptance in the clubhouse.
I would prefer Pages after Freeman, instead of Kike.
“The Los Angeles Dodgers selected the contract of Jack Little from Triple-A Oklahoma City and optioned Emmet Sheehan prior to their series finale against the San Diego Padres.
Tony Gonsolin was transferred to the 60-day injured list in order to make room for Little on the Dodgers’ 40-man roster, which remains full. There was an open spot but that was filled Wednesday when the Dodgers activated Sheehan off the 60-day injured list for his 2025 debut”.
if we don’t make them, he doesn’t have to delete them…. and i said earlier, why take kim out every time a lefty comes in? he’s got more to offer than kike at this time
Mark,
Can’t you just delete the annoying and offensive and political posts?
If the Dodgers do part ways with Conforto I think they would improve the team by moving either Edman or Kim to the outfield and playing the other at second base. Both are equal or better defensively and much better offensively.
I don’t understand why Dave Roberts has been pinch hitting Kiki for Kim. Does anyone have an insight?

If I can’t use sarcasm, how am I supposed to communicate?
It’s basically my mother tongue.
Thank you.
Thank you, it was getting a little out of hand.
I have a question:
Do I appear, mean, or am I somewhere on that list?
Because I don’t want to hurt feelings or offend some very delicate eyes.
But it’s okay, I promise not to bother anyone, I’ll be very respectful from now on.
And by the way, although it’s not important, I don’t hate anyone, because no one is important enough to hate.
I don’t hate those SD players, I just want to kill them!
just a quote from planes trains and automobiles! doesn’t mean anything. how bout them dodgers?
how bout them Bears?
