Before the Dodgers played the Cardinals, they had won 14 out of 16 games, and then they lost 3 out of 4 to the Cardinals, and many of you lost your minds, wanting to trade away the farm for Timmy Anderson or somebody, anybody… “this team sucks” and all the rest of the BS that you spew when the Dodgers lose. Come on, people, this 2023 version of the Dodgers…
Since becoming a Dodgers fan at age 9, sixty years ago, I have seen this story so many times that I laugh instead of panic. Most years, the Dodgers had no chance, but I rooted for them anyway. In 1988, they had no chance, but the impossible happened! Over the past ten years, Dodger fans fully expect to win every game, every year… and rightfully so! The Dodgers are the…
I am not Catholic. I am not Jewish. I am not an Athiest. I am not Protestant, Baptist, or Pagan. I do not practice Baha’i, Buddhism, Christianity, Confucianism, Falun Gong, Hinduism, Islam, Jainism, Judaism, Shinto, Sikhism, Taoism, and Zoroastrianism. However, I fully support every person’s right to worship God as they choose or not to worship a God. There is nothing more divisive than religion or politics, which is why…
Attention, Peter Seidler and his band of wannabes, never-weres, and just plain punks, the Dragon up the Freeway is alive and well and it just smoked your ass, you bunch of disrespectful reform-school dropouts! Clayton Kershaew’s Mother, Marianne Tombaugh, died Saturday. Up until now, we know very little about her life and death. Perhaps, Clayton will keep it that way… perhaps not. We learned very little about his father, who…
Let’s cut to the chase: Many Dodger fans believe it is a disservice to ask Thompson to do something he can’t do… and that is hit LH Pitching. Trayce is a RH hitter, and in the real world, he should hit LHP like you hit a rented mule. Except that he can’t! We can think what we wnt about it, but what does Trayce think? Well, the OC Register’s JP…
So, maybe you are of the mindset that when Dustin May got into a little trouble in the 7th inning Doc should have taken him out? That’s silliness! It’s true that Dustin May was cruising after six innings, and he got two quick outs in the top of the 7th inning. I think he had only allowed two hits at the time. Dustin was under 90 pitchers at the time,…
It used to be that every team had at least one or two “workhorse” starting pitchers. These are the guys who started 33 to 37 games a season and pitched 25 complete games! In 1966, the Dodgers used a four-man rotation, which was composed of Sandy Koufax, Don Drysdale, Claude Osteen, and Don Sutton. Let’s look at the stat lines: Sandy Koufax – 41 GS/27 CG/323 IP/1.73 ERA Don Drysdale…
It’s been nine days since my back surgery, and I have had more bad days than good days. Monday and Tuesday of this week were especially painful, and I have been unable to stand up straight for about a week. My Surgeon called me on Sunday, and he thought I should be more pain-free. It was I who reminded him that progress is not linear. There is no roadmap for…
A few fans have questioned why the Dodgers have a plethora of “retreads,” “has-beens,” “never were’s,” and “wannabees” at AAA OKC. Now, I do not want to disrespect the ability it takes and the work it requires to say nothing of the talent needed to play at the AAA level. Many of these guys have played 5, 10, 15… even 20 years chasing a dream… one that they may or…
