Last night I posted an outrageous blog with the plan of taking it down this morning. It is gone, but I hope the effect remains. This is a blog where you can express your feelings on anything Dodgers and you do not have to agree with anything I say. For example, DodgerRick and I seldom agree but he has well-thought-out comments. If you come he just for the purpose of…
I would seldom say that, but the Dodgers and Giants are 9 and 9 in the W – L column and tonight’s game breaks the tie. Whoever wins will have the advantage for tiebreakers, home field advantage or whatever tie needs to be decided by their season records against each other. It may or may not be a thing… depending upon how the season ends, but it at least gives…
So, let’s get right to it. The guy many of you wanted to be benched, sent to OKC, or even executed drove in the only two Dodger runs yesterday. I wish this were a stock market site because I would get the consensus of opinion and then do exactly the opposite. I would make a fortune going against the conventional thinking I read on this site. “Corey Seager is not…
That is not the law firm defending Trevor Bauer, but it is the four most scrutinized members of the LAD organization. I started to respond to Mark’s post from yesterday, but I got called away for errands. It then got too long for a response, so I decided to make it my own post. I am writing this before Game 1 with NYM, so this could all go to H***…
I may not always be the “sharpest knife in the drawer” but I tend to stay with things until I figure them out and I think I have finally figured out why so many fans have an irrational hatred of Dave Roberts. It took me a while to identfy it and maybe you have not yet identified it either. However, once you understand what I am about to say, I…
The Dodgers won four games in a row and then lost 2-1 to the Phillies yesterday and predictably, it is all Dave Robert’s fault. Somehow, Doc should have produced two more runs and Justin Turner should have pinch-hit and hit a home run to win the game… even if the medical staff advised him not to play or even if he knew he could not play. To compare that to…
Lots of people are believing the Giants are for real… and they may be. They have been consistent up until now, so we have to say that they are real… but will they stay real? Time will tell, but you can’t help peruse the roster and statistics and ask “They did this… how?” The fact that they are in first place does not really compute, but if we break it…
There are a lot of new commenters here since I first started writing for LADT in 2017, and I guess many do not know who I am. I will admit that this post is really out of my comfort zone. But I have been advised to push the comfort zone for better mental health. The other day, Mark intimated that I may have more contacts now than him. I have…
The last few days have reminded me how frustrating this team can be sometimes. And it is not just this version, there have been many over the years. Last year, this team was a lot of fun to watch, and it stretches this season, it has been fun too. After losing the opener to the Rockies 8-5, and Belli losing a HR when he passed Turner on the bases, they…
With Mark on the 10-day inactive list to attend to family business in Las Vegas (ever notice how these trips are never to Des Moines, Iowa or Wichita, Kansas?), Jeff (AC) was desperate for some assistance on the LADT writers roster. With his options limited, he had to resort to adding someone from the alternate training site, and had no choice but to call on me, the Zack Reks/Edwin Uceta…
