The simple way to blame someone for last night’s debacle ‘er, loss, is to say it was on Dave Roberts for starting Chris Taylor at 3B after Max Muncy’s big night. However, that would be short-sighted as well. Max has not fared well against Alex Wood – having just one hit in 9…
I don’t understand why it happens, but every time the Dodgers go on some kind of losing streak, the novice Dodger fans come out of the woodwork and proudly announce that Andrew Friedman and Dave Roberts are the problems, and they proceed to solve all the problems by getting rid…
Just a few days ago, the Dodgers were 5-2, and now three games and 29 runs given up later, they sit at 5-5 – all of the losses coming at the hands of the Diamondbacks, who may or may not be a .500 club. Regardless of what their ultimate record may be, they’re young and exciting……
Buckner Rookie Card Gamer. that single word fits Bill Buckner like a glove. In all the years he played, the guy played at full speed all the time. He played hard, and he wanted to win. He was ostracized for years over an error made in a World Series loss. He endured it all and…
If you are into odds at all, Max Muncy should not be in MLB. In 2015, Max Muncy was a rookie with the Oakland A’s and played in 45 games while hitting .206. In 2016, he was in 51 games and hit .186. In 2017, he played for OKC, where he hit 12 HR and OPS’ed .909, including a .309…
Dustin May may be the Dodger’s best pitcher before the season is over. He did not have his best stuff or pinpoint control last night, but even when he is “off,” he is still extremely hard to hit. His “bad stuff” is better than most pitchers’ “good stuff!” Actually, the entire…
Fans all over the Dodger Blogosphere are talking about Jahmai Jones as the second coming. Is he? Is he a prospect or just a suspect? Jahmai is 25 years old (he will be 26 on August 4, 2023). He was drafted in the 2nd Round of the MLB Amateur Draft in 2015 out of High School…
If you could pick just one player that you thought would help the Dodgers win another World Series, who would it be? For most Dodger fans I have talked to, and judging from the posts I have read, that player would be Shoei Ohtani. Ohtani is a front-line pitcher, and he is an…
Ever since Andrew Friedman assumed the role of President of Baseball Operations for the Los Angeles Dodgers, he has pushed the envelope and has the Dodgers on the “Cutting Edge” in a variety of areas of baseball operations. Despite drafting at the bottom of each round, Andrew…
I am going to say something that is absolutely true, and if you disagree with it, you are an idiot: Anyone who blames either of the 2-1 loses to the D-Bags on Dave Roberts is also an idiot! End of story. Dave Roberts is the manager – he does not hit or pitch. I don’t care what…
Some of you thought this team was rebuilding and would be pretty mediocre. I tried to tell you otherwise! I don’t think anyone can say that the Dodgers made any bad moves in the offseason. It appears they made the right moves, So right about now would be a good time to just…
Every year just before spring training starts, MLB.TV comes out with its power rankings for the year. Naturally, the rankings will change during the season depending on how the teams are playing at any given time. For our purposes, I will just stick with the top 10, Everyone…
