I love the Giants! Right! OK, that’s a damn lie! Gavin Stone has exceeded my expectations. I have always liked him but did not envision him in the rotation. He’s there and he’s good! JP Feyereisen is a Godsend and the bullpen remains outstanding. The offense generally rolls and…
If I had as bad a record of predicting what would happen with the Dodgers as many of you do, I would quit being a baseball fan. Before the season and even during the season, many of you make these dire, wild predictions about how bad some aspect of the Dodgers is, and for ten…
Thanks for your patience, We are back after some server issues. After Game Two in Seoul, the internet was abuzz with Dodger fans denouncing just about everything about the Dodgers: Yamamoto was a bust Glasnow was horrid The bullpen was even worse Max Muncy was the worst 3B in…

I am not going to belabor this point, but I am going to address it since it is a real thing: In the past, I have let too many bad actors and passive-aggressive commenters into this blog . No names will be mentioned, but I think we all know who they are/were. Passive-aggressive…
Since June 15th, the Dodgers have had one of the best bullpen ERAs in baseball. In fact, since that date, which happens to be the date Dave Roberts called out the bullpen and said, “ they have to be better ,” the Dodgers bullpen is tied for 2nd place in MLB with a 2.64 ERA (tied…
Step 1 : You start out realizing that they do not need to be “fixed.” They may not even need “tweaked.” I think they could stand pat and still win it all… if things go right. Step 2: Go back and read Step 1! Now, I am not saying that Andrew Friedman may not make a trade or two…
The criticism of Andrew Friedmans lack of off-season moves is being read in social media circles and blogs like there’s no tomorrow. Many fans are expressing their opinions without a clear understanding of the ramifications and penalties levied to teams that sign free agents. I…
