Tonight’s game against the Giants could likely prove to be one of the most important… if not THE MOST IMPORTANT START of the season for a Dodger pitcher. Why? Simply because in his last start, Mitch White gave up ten Hits and six Earned Runs, raising his ERA from 3.38 to 4.20…
I see so many websites and blogs that analyze the Amateur Draft until they are paralyzed. Get that: Analyze until you are Paralyzed! They look at these young men like a proctologist looking for something I don’t even want to discuss. Look, these are young men… actually kids, in…
There is only one game today across all of baseball, and that is the MLB All-Star Game. There are six (6) Dodgers on the squad, including Mookie Betts, Trea Turner, and Clayton Kershaw, who are all starting the game. Tony Gonsolin, Tyler Anderson, and Freddie Freeman are also on…
Let me start off by saying that I really don’t like to throw out trade proposals or enjoy reading them. Usually, people want to trade for an All-Star by giving up the bottom feeders of the prospect lists or a slumping pro. With that said, let’s go ahead and take a stab at it……
#41 Jerry Reuss Jerry Reuss was born in St. Louis, Missouri, on June 19, 1949. His father worked for RC Cola and drove a truck. His mom worked in real estate and also as an interior decorator. The big baseball fan in the family was his grandfather on his mom’s side, Alfred…

A lot of Dodger fans have postulated that the Dodgers should “ just extend Trea Turner ” right about now, like “ just push a button, ” and he will be extended. If it were only that simple. I think that right about now, Trea Turner is the best SS in baseball. The Rangers signed…
Behind 6-0, the Dodgers come back to win! That in and of itself was amazing, but the sub-stories are what it is all about. No pitcher has ever entered the All-Star Break undefeated and with an ERA under 2.00. Tony Gonsolin is still perfect… thanks to the Dodger’s comeback, but…
Maybe I am just the overly-sensitive type, but David Price just rubs me the wrong way. Of course, we all know that he was part of the Mookie Betts trade and his first season with the Dodgers was 2020. I had COVID-19 twice that season at age 67, but he opted out of the season…
NEW YORK – OCTOBER 28: Steve Howe of the Los Angeles Dodgers celebrates the Dodgers victory during World Series game six between the New York Yankees and Los Angeles Dodgers on October 28, 1981 at Yankee Stadium in the Bronx borough of New York City. The Dodgers defeated the…
As the season passes the halfway point, Miguel Vargas is poised to make his debut in LA sometime in the next 30 days (that’s my opinion, not a fact). Miguel has made a lot of progress this year defensively. I think he can play an “above-average” Third-Base RIGHT ABOUT NOW, but…
The Dodgers are the class of the National League once again at the midway mark for the season and with the All-Star game upon us. Voting is complete and the starters have been selected by the fans. The reserves are selected by a combination of a Player Ballot where coaches…
