I’ll be at the Ravine Monday and Tuesday. The Dodgers are giving the wife and I the Grand Tour Monday at 4 PM. I am very much looking forward to it.
I’ll be looking for you… E-mail me. mark@uswatersystems.com
- The lead in the NL West is shrinking!
- Rich Hill will likely be out 4-6 weeks – Hopefully Clayton will be back soon.
- Ross Stripling is truly a starter. Very nice job!
- Cingrani looks like he is still hurt.
- Give El Gasolino some props.
- Anyone still want to disrespect Max Muncy now?
- Matt “Freaking” Kemp! What did I tell you?
- Ginger Jesus has changed everything!
- Any questions as to why Forsythe is playing? Watch and learn.
- Kenley Jansen is truly back! Two saves in one day!
- This team has come back to life! A come from behind win and a doubleheader sweep.
- Shut up you Negative Nellies! 😉
- Will Dennis Santana take Rich Hill’s place? His AAA debut was outstanding: 6 shutout innings 11 K’s. I’m saying yes! You will see him next week!

Dodgers Food Trailer
I did this interview a couple of weeks ago with Chef Mike, who runs the Dodgers Food Trailer for the Great Lakes Loons. They are there for every home and road regular season and playoff game. They prepare three meals a day for approximately 50 people (players and coaches). Since games end late most evenings, they do not prepare breakfast. Many of their hotels have a complimentary breakfast anyway. However,…
Meet LAD 2026 Draft Picks 1-12
3 picks were High School players (2 SS and 1 OF). There was a college OF, college catcher, college SS, and 10 college pitchers. Of all the talk for a need for a catcher, the only catcher the Dodgers selected was Luke Bard, son of LAD bullpen coach Josh Bard. Bard was a 4th year senior from Houston Christian University. He is not a prospect, so the Dodgers are still…
Interview with Paul Beachy – Team Bus Driver For The Great Lakes Loons (LA Dodgers Minor League Team)
It’s been a few days since I did this interview. We have evidently been working my son-in-law (the video guy) like a rented mule at US Water Systems. However, I am taking him to London with me in a few days, so maybe Watford will buy him a pint as a tip, but he’s a dang Red Sox fan, so there is that! I thought that it would be interesting…
Thanks for Your Service: Chris Taylor
I was going to do this post when Chris announced he was retiring, then he changed his mind, but since the chances of him ever playing for the Dodgers again are slim and non-existent, I will go ahead with this post. He unretired, went on the IL, then decided to call it quits on May 24th. Taylor was born in Virginia Beach VA on August 29th, 1990. He attended Great…

Disagree, not disagreeable
Great wins today but let’s temper things like NorCal said, we need to put together a streak like the ones mentioned above to really be back in this thing.
We are still only a couple of games out of dead last in NL.
The pen scares me to death, only 2 reliable arms and Kenley and Alexander are still not as good as they were last year. We need to improve somehow with internal moves what can be done??
I’ll be “all in” when they reel off 9 wins out of ten or 12 out of 15, but with 3/5’s of your starting pitchers on the DL it is probably too much to ask. Having said that I do like the fight they’re showing……maybe JT is the catalyst for great things to happen.
Wow – the Dodgers win 3 games. 7 under .500, 4th place, 4th worst record in the NL. Everything is WONDERFUL!

Great wins tonight, especially in game 2. But really, aren’t you just a little early with the jubilation?
Mark, if I could somehow get this Kemp jersey to you in the time you’re in town you think you could get Kemp to sign it then send it back to me? Well ya can’t blame me for trying. lol
