May you and your families have a Happy Thanksgiving... wherever you are!

Let’s all count our blessings and remember our friends – ones who are still with us and ones who we won’t see again.

None of us know how many more trips around the sun we have so let us gather with our families whenever possible and be thankful.

Let’s not forget our Dodger Family.

Happy Thanksgiving Dodger

Brothers and Sisters!

Sorry, Big Bird!

    Had a great meal. Watched myself and only had one plate with a small portion of every thing, Turkey, ham, green bean salad, deviled eggs, dressing, fruit salad, crab salad, mashed taters and a Hawaiian dinner roll. Topped it off with a small slice of pumpkin and cherry pie with a smidge of whipped cream on top. Ice tea to drink, no drum sticks! Same to you 2D. Hope you had a great one.

    Happy Thanksgiving to the LADT community! Despite all the confusion and turmoil in our world and the Dodgers not winning the WS, there remains so much for which to be grateful!

    Special thanks to Mark, Jeff, Howard and Bear for providing such great posts on a daily basis! Their articles are second to none.

    I hope to get out an article or two in the near future.

    Is Jon Gray worth a gamble?

    No Draft Pick compensation to worry about.

    This NFL game is terrible. I can’t stop watching.

    Hello friends of Dodgers Talk, the most knowledgeable about baseball. I wish you a happy and pleasant Thanksgiving for all of you and your families, one of the most important for all of us citizens.

    Happy Thanksgiving to the most knowledgeable Dodger fans on the planet, (those that participate on this blog). May you season be safe and festive. This blog still keeps rolling out gems.

    And a big thank you to Jeff. That piece on steroids and amphetamines might be the best written article I have ever seen on MLB and drugs.

    Happy Thanksgiving Day everyone! I hope you get to spend your day, or at least speak with, those who mean the most to you.

    I’m grateful for the hard working writers (and commenters) who make this blog work. Harold, Jeff, Bear, Mark, and the long lost…2D2 and Evan. May you have joy, good health, and more helpful insight to share. Thank you.

    We live in a land of plenty, be grateful and generous..

    God bless us all.

    Happy Thanksgiving to all!

    When we think about all we have to be grateful for, be thankful you aren’t a D’back, Oriole or Pirate fan.

    Happy Thanksgiving to LADT posters and your family and friends. We do have much for which we can be thankful even in difficult times.

    In Canada we celebrated Thanksgiving Day on October 11.

    Happy Thanksgiving to all and may we all have many more. This is my 77th Thanksgiving but I must admit I don’t remember my first 2 or 3. It’s a bit chilly down here in SW (Punta Gorda) Florida. This morning it was in the mid 40’s.

  11. QuasimodoNovember 25, 2021

    Happy Thanksgiving Day friends! I’ll be spending today with a few friends and remembering family and those friends that aren’t with us any longer. Hey Watford, do they call it Thanksgiving Day in the UK? For some reason here in the US we were taught that this holiday was started by pilgrims that settled here and natives that helped supply food to make it through the rough seasons when food was difficult to get. But I had learned since that it goes way back to the 14th century over there and had several names through time. At any rate I hope the day turns out great for all.

    Happy Thanksgiving to all of you! May your thanks be graceful and your turkey moist.

  15. ZekeNovember 25, 2021

    Hope all the LADT posters have a great day with their families. Appreciate it as life is short!

    Happy Thanksgiving all.

    Sounds like things may be looking up on the Corey Seager front. That would be a great start to the holidays.

    No snow in sunny SoCal.

    Have a happy Thanksgiving everyone. May God bless you all.

    AF said on High Heat that he expects some movement/announcements about FA signings around Thanksgiving and shortly thereafter. I expect next week to be quite active on the FA market. Corey Seager needs to be signed for 6 years and $185 million.

    Happy Thanksgiving!

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…
