Check Yourself Before You Wreck Yourself

January 17, 2023

Don Mattingly had a .551 Winning Percentage as the Dodger Manager, while Dave Roberts has a .632 Winning Percentage. Trying to make any comparison between the two is dumb. I did not like Mattingly, and it was for one reason – he could not run the clubhouse. The Mattingly Dodger teams were a free-for-all. It was Dodge City, not Dodgertown. That’s why I wanted to get rid of him. I…

Understanding the Luxury Tax 

January 14, 2023

The optimist sees bubbles and thinks of champagne. The pessimist thinks Alka-Seltzer. The fact of the matter is that everyone thinks the Dodgers are the richest organization in baseball and should sign an All-Star at every position because that is the recipe for a World Championship. If you believe that, you are either naive or very dumb… or both. First off, what is the Luxury Tax? Actually, it’s called the…

The Plan Unfolds…

January 12, 2023

I cannot believe the level of disrespect that is being rained down upon Miguel Rojas. Well, the disrespect is not coming from people inside of baseball. It is coming from the common fan. Before I go any further, let me explain who the “common fan” is. The common fans comprise 68% of people today. Most people (about 68 percent) have an IQ between 85 and 115. Only a small fraction of…

Never Question Me Again!

January 11, 2023

I liked that headline, but I am joking… partially! I hate to keep saying this (no, I really don’t), but there was no way that Andrew Friedman and Josh Byrnes were going into the season with Gavin Lux at SS and Miguel Vargas at 3B. The conventional wisdom was that Lux was going to be the SS. Muncy was at 2B, and Vargas was at 3B. I said that I…

A New Third Baseman & Much More…

January 9, 2023

For the greater part of nine seasons, Justin Turner has been the one player you could count on, day-in-and-day-out! The Dodger’s Manager just penciled his name in at 3B just about every day. Justin was the heart and soul of the Dodgers during this run… and that run is over. Father Time caught up with JT. He is no longer a Top Third-Baseman, and his bat has slowed up. I…

Truth About Trevor Bauer and the Dodgers

January 8, 2023

In the context of a legal proceeding, the term “evidentiary foundations” refers to the requirements that must be met in order for a piece of evidence to be considered admissible in court. These requirements ensure that the evidence is reliable and relevant to the case at hand. There are several types of evidentiary foundations that must be established, depending on the type of evidence being presented. For example, if a…

Dodgers Cave to the Woke Mob

January 6, 2023

Even though the majority of the Dodgers fans indicated they supported Trevor Bauer and wanted him back, Mark Walter and Guggenheim Partners decided that the woke mob carried too much clout, and so they decided to virtue signal how righteous they were. Mark Walter has no balls, as the woke mob evidently castrated him. It is going to be funny to see the Padres or Giants, or Yankees pick him…

So, You Want Bryan Reynolds?

January 3, 2023

You know what? So do I! There are rumors that Bobby Miller, Ryan Pepiot, and Andy Pages are being discussed. If the Dodgers want Reynolds, that is what it would likely take. For the record, I would make that trade. Here’s why: Miller may be Nolan Ryan, or he could be a bust (he has the talent, but you never know). Pepiot will not be Top Tier Starter, but he…

This is no 111 Win Team!

December 31, 2022

… and that, my friends, is a good thing! Expectations were sky-high for the Los Angeles Dodgers last season, as everyone in baseball believed they were a powerhouse! Yes, they did win 111 games, but a lot (and I mean A LOT) went wrong. I won’t list every little thing, but consider these things as going VERY WRONG: Justin Turner, the heart and soul of the team, really regressed to…

Fire Dave Roberts? Are You Crazy?

December 29, 2022

It all started with this question on QUORA: Why is Dodger Manager Dave Roberts’ claim that if there is a full season and playoffs, the Dodgers will win the World Series complete nonsense? Fred Owens, Senior writer for www.TomahawkTake.com wrote this response back on March 27, 2022: “It’s not complete nonsense to say you aim to win the World Series, but it is complete nonsense to make his statement a…
