I am going to go out on a limb and make a few predictions as to what could or might happen during Spring Training. Pitchers and Catchers are just hours away from reporting, so I am going to throw out a few things to look for. Watch Kiebert Ruiz. You are going to be amazed at how good of a catcher he is and expecially his footwork behind the plate,
DODGERS ANNOUNCE 2018 SPRING TRAINING RADIO BROADCAST SCHEDULE LOS ANGELES – The Los Angeles Dodgers today announced their 2018 Spring Training radio broadcast schedule with 16 broadcasts in English on AM 570 LA Sports and eight Spanish-language broadcasts on Univision Radio’s KTNQ 1020 AM. Both AM 570 and KTNQ 1020 will carry the Dodgers’ Cactus League opener on Feb. 23 against the White Sox, and will also close out the
2017 marked the third consecutive season in which MLB attendance declined. In fact, it went below 73 million for the first time since 2002. You need to realize that attendance has declined for 5 out of the past 6 years (Maury Brown Forbes Magazine). It s not huge, but it is a decline almost half a million less in 2017 over 2016. Major league baseball attendance has declined 8.59% since 2000.
Just Say No Yu The Dodgers Ace, Clayton Kershaw had a 4.02 ERA in the World Series and he s a goat? The Astros Ace, Justin Verlander was awesome with a 3.75 ERA and he is amazing? Dallas Keuchel (the Astros #2) had a 5.32 ERA in the World Series. Yu Darvish ERA in the World Series? 21.60. Let s sign him. Hell no! On the biggest stage in baseball, namely the
MLB.com listed some prospects who just missed the Top 100. Among them were the Dodgers own Mitchell White. They had this to say about him: Mitchell White, RHP, Dodgers White had Tommy John surgery after graduating from high school and didn t start to take off until late in his redshirt sophomore season at Santa Clara in 2016, which is why he lasted 65 picks in the Draft that June. He
Scott Borass is all about Scott Borass. He can say he is just looking after his client s best interests, but in a free agent market, the top free agents set the market and Borass said his top three free agents were worth $200 million dollar contracts. I drive a 2013 Ford F-150 which now has 94,000 miles on it. I take good care of my vehicles and it still looks
Here it is just about two weeks from players starting to report to Spring Training and they are getting the lockers ready at Camelback Ranch. The LA Beatwriters continue to sat that it is unlikely that Matt Kemp will be on the Opening Day Roster, but I happen to think Matt Kemp will be on the Opening Day Roster… unless: 1. He is physically unable to perform; 2. He is
Notice the resemblance? I think they look alike It s the color of their eyes and their smiles! But, I digress! Once upon a time . there was a young boy who played basketball and baseball in high school, but seemed to be destined to play in the NBA as he was a standout at basketball, winning two state championships in a row. He was raised by his mother and grandmother who
Three weeks before pitchers and catchers are scheduled to report, and the free agent market is still in slow motion. MLBTR listed 50 top free agents. Of those 50, 25 remain unsigned, including eight of the top ten. Of those eight, only Darvish is rumored close to signing. What’s to become of the other seven; JDM, Hosmer, Arrieta, Moustakas, Cain, Lynn, Holland? There are no fresh rumors. Four of
and Scott Boras is apt put out a hit on Andrew at any time. Andrew should consider getting Secret Service protection. Currently, the Secret Service protects the most hated man in the America and Friedman is currently the most hated man among agents. What? Who? Why? The lack of movement in the Hot Stove League, especially among the upper-echelon free agents falls squarely at the feet of one Andrew
There are a lot of Dodger fans who regard me as a heretic when I try and say that Clayton Kershaw will go down in history as the LA Dodgers Greatest Of All Time as a pitcher. But, that s my story and I m sticking to it! So, as we start, let s get this over with: Career Records Sandy Koufax 12 Seasons * 2,324 IP *2,396 K * 165 Wins
Mark referenced a site, https://www.rosterresource.com/mlb-los-angeles-dodgers/ , that I have studied for some time. I went back to look at my notes and do have some observations: There is no way the bench will be comprised of 4 RH hitters and 1 switch hitter. I do not see Segedin or Thompson on the 25 man coming out of Spring. I would project Toles and one of Peter/Muncy/Locastro to replace Segedin
