LA Dodger Talk Moving Forward

November 1, 2021

As I have mentioned, I need to reduce my involvement with LADT. Several of you have volunteered to write and some of you already write. The problem that I have is that if you send me a written post with some photos, it may take up to an hour for me to post it… and the thing is, it takes me about an hour to do a post myself, so…

The Truth About the MLB All-Star Game

October 31, 2021

Of course, you know I don’t care, but I took a lot of flack from various and diverse fans earlier this year when I blasted Rob Manfred and MLB Baseball for moving the All-Star Game from Atlanta to Denver because the State of Georgia had passed what the Democratic White House and many of the Democratic politicians called racist voter suppression. Of course, that was a lie. Some of you…

The $45 Million Dollar Roadblock

October 29, 2021

Disclaimer: If Trevor Bauer is guilty of what his accuser (who will not be named here) says he did, then he should be charged, tried, and sentenced to prison for a long, long time. To date that has not happened. In case you have been drugged or worse, here is the timeline of the Trevor Bauer Debacle: April 6, 2021 – Bauer and the accuser allegedly have a sexual encounter…

The State-of-the -Dodgers

October 28, 2021

The Dodgers have built an organization that has no limit to its “window of contention.” It’s actually a giant door that feels permanently wedged open, with the talent in the minors and the win-now, win-tomorrow-too mindset of the front office.  But as always, there will be changes – there are changes every year. The Dodgers are still the odd-on-favorites to win it all in 2022. Just remember, it is very…

I am Proud to be a Dodger Fan!

October 24, 2021

The season did not end the way we wanted, but the better team won. What I mean by that was that they were better right about now. The Dodgers had more talent, but the Braves got hot at the right time, particularly Eddie Rosario who lifted the team to a level way above where they actually were. The Braves are a good team and with Acuna and probably Ozuna back…

Mad About Max

October 23, 2021

For a run of six seasons from 2011 until 2016, Madison Bumgarner was a “horse” pitching over 200 innings each year. It culminated in 2016 when he was a key cog in winning the Giants third World Series in six years. In that 2016 season, MadBum pitched 226.2 innings during the regular season and an additional 14 innings in the postseason. When MadBum started that great run he was 21…

Back From the Grave

October 22, 2021

In a Theme from a Halloween Movie, the Dodgers came back from the grave and led by Christ Aylor’s three-home run night (see what I did there) scored 11 runs as they pounded the Atlanta Braves 11-2, and send the series back to the ATL on Saturday. The Braves are putting on a “Brave Face” saying that they are confident they are going to win, but after last night’s “beat…

Win Three or Go Home

The Dodgers were in this same position last year. They were down 3-1 to the Braves and won three straight games. I was confident that they could do that… LAST YEAR! I do not think they can do it THIS YEAR! If you have a great team, The Whole Is Greater Than The Sum Of Its Parts. We have often heard that, but what does it really mean? The meaning…

Right Back In!

October 20, 2021

I watched every painful pitch yesterday and was certain that the Baseball Gods were frowning on the Los Angeles Dodgers. Every missed call went for the Braves and even weak contact resulted in a hit for them. I was about ready to concede that the Big Dodger in the Sky was punishing Dodger fans for berating his beloved manager… until the bottom of the eighth inning! Little did I know…

Circular BS

October 19, 2021

The Dodgers Bullpen has pitched 36.2 innings in the playoffs this year. The Braves bullpen has pitched 23.2 innings. The Dodgers bullpen is tired. Let me remind you that many of your mocked and ridiculed me when I suggested resting the pitchers the last two weeks of the season and concede the division to the Giants. I wanted to win the WAR, not the battle. Well, they did not do…
