So far, so good. The Dodger’s starting rotation is as good as it gets in baseball this season. They have the best winning percentage, ERA, WHIP, and Ave Against. It’s a clean sweep in most of the major indicators of success, but there are reasons for concern. They don’t K at an…
Not me… the Dodgers. I do not think the Dodgers have signed a single Draftee. Just sayin’… JT may go on the IL; CT3 may go on a rehab assignment within a week; Heaney will be back this week; Treinen sounds like he is two weeks away; The Bazooka may get activated this week…

Digging into the Math behind the Trade Simulator I am generally a non-believer whenever I read anything, for the most part. This is my way of saying that I’m really skeptical. I’m mostly this way after taking a couple of college courses, A logic philosophy class and a statistics…
Tonight’s game against the Giants could likely prove to be one of the most important… if not THE MOST IMPORTANT START of the season for a Dodger pitcher. Why? Simply because in his last start, Mitch White gave up ten Hits and six Earned Runs, raising his ERA from 3.38 to 4.20…
I see so many websites and blogs that analyze the Amateur Draft until they are paralyzed. Get that: Analyze until you are Paralyzed! They look at these young men like a proctologist looking for something I don’t even want to discuss. Look, these are young men… actually kids, in…
There is only one game today across all of baseball, and that is the MLB All-Star Game. There are six (6) Dodgers on the squad, including Mookie Betts, Trea Turner, and Clayton Kershaw, who are all starting the game. Tony Gonsolin, Tyler Anderson, and Freddie Freeman are also on…
Let me start off by saying that I really don’t like to throw out trade proposals or enjoy reading them. Usually, people want to trade for an All-Star by giving up the bottom feeders of the prospect lists or a slumping pro. With that said, let’s go ahead and take a stab at it……

The 2022 Futures Game is finally here and will be held tonight. The seven-inning American vs. National League game will take place at Dodger Stadium on Saturday, July 16 at 7 p.m. ET/4 p.m. PT. It will be broadcast live on Peacock and SiriusXM, with MLB Network producing the…
A lot of Dodger fans have postulated that the Dodgers should “ just extend Trea Turner ” right about now, like “ just push a button, ” and he will be extended. If it were only that simple. I think that right about now, Trea Turner is the best SS in baseball. The Rangers signed…
Behind 6-0, the Dodgers come back to win! That in and of itself was amazing, but the sub-stories are what it is all about. No pitcher has ever entered the All-Star Break undefeated and with an ERA under 2.00. Tony Gonsolin is still perfect… thanks to the Dodger’s comeback, but…
