Sorry, but the 4th of July took precedence over thoroughly following the MiLB games. This is a shortened version. Sugar Land Space Cowboys (Houston) 7 – OKC Comets 5 – 5 ½ innings Game was delayed in the bottom of the 6th due to inclement weather and eventually called. The game went long enough for a game. RHSP Ryder Ryan took the mound for OKC and delivered a HR to…
OKC Comets 4 – Sugar Land Space Cowboys (Houston) 3 Just when you thought he might not have anything this year, LHSP Jackson Ferris pitched his best game of the season. Jackson finished 6.0 complete IP. He allowed 1 run, on 2 hits (both singles in the 6th), and 2 BB, with 8 K. Ferris had not allowed a hit through 5.1 IP. With one out in the 6th, he…
This was written by Bumsrap. When we start the new site, his name will appear as the author, but it does not here. Rob: I heard it again after last night’s game. Dawn: “The Dodgers buy championships?” Rob: Every. Single. Time. Ethan: Well…the Dodgers do spend a lot of money. Rob: Exactly! Why does everybody act like that’s some kind of secret? Dawn: Because it’s easier than having a longer…
In 2004, Frank McCourt became the owner of the Dodgers. He hired Paul DePodesta as his GM in February of 2004. One of his first trades sent Jason Frasor to the Jays for Jason Werth. In April, DePodesta traded Franklin Gutierrez to the Indians for Milton Bradley. At the deadline, he traded Paul lo Duca, Juan Encarnacion and Guillermo Mota to the Marlins for Brad Penny, Bill Murphy and He…
MLB Pipeline has revised their Top 100 prospect list and the Dodgers are very well represented. CF Mike Sirota rose 26 spots on MLB Pipeline’s new Top 100. That was the second most spots climbed, behind only Tampa Bay’s OF Theo Gillen. Gillen rose 29 spots while Sirota rose 26. What they said about Mike Sirota’s rise. “A crowded Double-A Tulsa outfield forced Sirota back to High-A, where he suffered…
ACL Dodgers 32 – ACL Angels 7 That is not a typo. EveryACL Dodgers hitter had at least one hit, and all but SS Sam Mongelli on a rehab assignment had 2 or more. Mongelli only had 3 PA and reached on a single and walk before giving way to Yojackson Laya. This was a stats building game…32 runs, 30 hits,11 XBH, 10 BB Box Score DSL Padres Gold 2…
Yesterday, Dodgerpatch asked about a woman who posted here years ago. She is not forgotten. He wrote this: “Who was the former poster here who loved Sonny Gray. She was a female, and she always wanted the Dodgers to go out and get Sonny Gray when he was with Oakland. She also was very fond of Andrew Toles. She disappeared for a while, and Mark did a little sleuthing and…
The Dodgers throughout their long history, have been involved in many historic baseball moments. Not only their own history, but major league baseballs as well. Their first was winning the pennant in the first year of the National Leagues existence. There was no World Series as we know it now back then. Manager Bill McGunnigle had some pretty good players on his team. Some really great baseball names too. Back…
We already know that the Dodgers are the class of MLB with some of the finest facilities and operations on the planet. The player development program is likely the finest in MLB. Andrew Friedman is the best at what he does. Prove me wrong! The manager will be in the Hall of Fame someday, and the coaches and front office personnel are Top Shelf. However, the Los Angeles Dodgers are…
OKC Comets 9 – Reno Aces 8 LHSP Charlie Barnes started and gave up a 2-run HR to top prospect Ryan Waldschmidt, who had a good but brief run with Arizona early in the year. OKC scored the next 9 runs and then had to hold on for the 1 run win. OKC put up 6 in the 3rd. With one out C Griffin Lockwood-Powell singled and SS Noah Miller…
I do this (Rants & Raves) when there isn’t a single subject I want to address… but a plethora of them. Reno Aces (Dbacks) 4 – OKC Comets 3 – 10 innings RHSP Landon Knack made his season debut. It could have gone better. He allowed 2 runs on 5 hits, 1 BB, and 2 K. In 1.2 IP, Knack allowed 2 runs on 5 hits,1 BB, 2 K. In…
A Dodgers fan conversation about prospects, trades, panic, patience, and the baseball gods. Written by Bumsrap (even though it says I am the author – I am not!) Rob: I’ve made a decision. Dawn: That usually means something regrettable is about to happen. Ethan: Let’s hear it. Rob: Trade them all. Dawn: All who? Rob: The prospects. Dawn: Every prospect in the organization? Rob: Every last one. Ethan: That’s an…
