Starting today, I will preview a couple of positions a day as we approach 2026. I am going to focus on what could happen at the positions, possible trades, and possible prospects at those positions. Here we go. No surprises here. Catcher Players who could see time here: Will…
Thanks for another great year at LADT. I am still looking for additional writers – Bear will continue to write, but I am going to continue to cut back. My book is getting close, and there will be a second one. The book website will be up soon, and you will have a lot more…
The hot stove has been a little cool this offseason, so this is the time that everyone “Makes Stuff Up” or it could be called “ Make S___t Up Time”! The Dodgers run a very tight ship, and they know that “Loose Lips Sink Ships,” so if you are hearing a rumor involving the…
“The thlot plickens” is used to comment on escalating situations, like a confusing story, a complex sports situation, or just everyday life getting more complicated. Outfield remains a position of need for the Dodgers, as they are looking to add depth. Questions about Tommy…
Well, here it is the middle of December already. Seems like just yesterday we were watching the Dodgers parade in downtown Los Angeles. There have been some changes already, and more than likely there will be a few more before opening day on March 26th against the Diamondbacks…
Someone, somewhere, has said that the Dodgers would try to sign Kyle Tucker on a short-term/high-dollar deal. It was even suggested that it might be something like $180 million over 4 Years. Yeah, that worked with Bryce Harper, right? Ha, Ha! I have one question: Why in God’s…
Tarik Skubal is unquestionably the best pitcher in baseball. That is for sure. What is uncertain is how much longer he will be able to sustain that. Personally, I think that at some point, he will be Walker Buehler! Just my opinion, but I say NO to Skubal. However, I am now…
Now and then, a player comes along who is something very special… someone like Bobby Witt, Jr., the shortstop for the Kansas City Royals. I think it goes without saying that the Dodgers would love to have a player like this. What if the Royals could become even better by trading…
So far, the Winter Meetings have been only slightly eventful. In a surprise move, the Dodgers signed the best closer on the market, saying, “ loss of a draft pick and International Bonus Money be damned – we are getting another closer.” I would assume that signing Edwin Diaz…
As baseball fans, we like to make up trades – it’s in our DNA! We can’t help it – it’s a form of BOCD (Baseball Obsessive Compulsive Disorder) and is the root cause of “dope-fiend moves.” Andrew Friedman was a “recovering dope fiend”… that was until he signed Michael Conforto…
It is the holiday gift giving season. Your favorite team has some holes to fill. Just who should they target to fill those holes? Ask 25 fans, you will usually get 25 different answers. I am pretty sure some of the suggestions I would make would get some pushback from other…
I have certainly followed the careers of Will Smith and Dalton Rushing, beginning with their time in college at Louisville. So, I decided to dig in and do a comparison of Dalton Rushing and Will Smith. Of course, they both went to college at Louisville, so let’s look at that…
