Last spring the Dodgers signed one of the best hitters in the game to a six-year deal. Freddie Freeman has done everything a fan, or the team could ask for. He is hitting .320 plus as a Dodger, and while not hitting a ton of home runs, he is driving in runs, scoring runs, and leading by example. Freeman is a pros pro. Freeman, whose birth name is Frederick Charles…
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…
If you have been a fan anytime at all, you have to know that pitching wins championships. You look at any of the Dodgers 7 World Series winners, and there are outstanding games pitched in each. The Dodger system is loaded with young arms who have lightning in them. Flame throwers who can top 95 consistently. Now throwing it where they want, that is another story. Because of injuries, two…
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…
Having lived in other cities who have MLB teams, I know that sometimes the folks who live in those cities, or even states, feel you should be a fan of the team that plays there. I spent 12 years living in Phoenix and I have been here in Colorado for almost 13. When I was driving long haul and working out of Denver, I did that for almost 7. So,…

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…
After seeing Will Smith spend more than ten days out with the MLB concussion protocol, it got me wondering why anyone in their right mind would make catching their profession. But many have answered that call. And over the years, the Dodgers have had some very talented ones. Mike Piazza may have been the best-hitting catcher they have ever produced. Campanella was a great defender and so far, the only…
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…
