Some days, you just can’t catch a break, or maybe you are sleepwalking. It was funny watching Miggy Ro pitch and imitate other pitchers. Other than that, just move on. There’s nothing to see. If Andy Pages hadn’t reached over the wall to take away Michael Busch’s grand slam, it might have been 20-0. Nobody could pitch, and nobody could hit, but otherwise, it was a great game. The best…
Here is the video of the interview I did with Andrew Friedman on April 1, 2025, in the Dodgers’ Dugout right before the game. Enjoy! It’s just a casual conversation… I am not trying to be a “super announcer.” I’m just a fan interviewing the President of Dodger Baseball Operations. Thanks to Jon Weisman for the excellent camera work! 😉
Some Dodger fans are losing their collective minds after 13 games, even though the Dodgers are on track to win 112 games with a .692 winning percentage. I have heard all of the following suggestions: It seems that many Dodger fans feel that this team is a colossal failure. They evidently believed my satire that the team should win 162 games. Anything else is a failure! Of course, all of…
Since Opening Day, we have seen Freddie Freeman and Blake Snell go on the IL with Hunter Feduccia and Matt Sauer taking their places. Rest assured, you are going to see a lot more of this. The Dodgers have massive depth, and you are going to see it maxed out. Kershaw, Ohtani, Miller, Wrobleski, Frasso, Phillips, Sheehan, Graterol, and others are all pitching possibilities. On the offensive side, it’s likely…
We arrived at Dodger Stadium at 4:30 for the 7:10 game. Jon Weisman, who is the Dodgers VP of Communications and someone I have known for twenty-plus years, left me a Media Credential which is a “Get out of Jail Free Card” – it takes you anywhere in the stadium. My wife, son, and son-in-law accompanied me, but they did not have the Media Credential. So, they dropped me off…
In 1963, I became a Dodger fan for life. It’s a long story, but it happened when I was nine. I have been a Dodger fan for most of my life, and I am now an old man who will turn 72 years old in a few months. My 25-year-old son has recently turned into a rabid Dodger fan, and starting next Spring, I plan to spend all of Spring…
I have heard a few Dodger fans say that maybe the Dodgers made a mistake in signing Roki Sasaki and Hyeseong Kim. Of course, Kim was sent to OKC at the end of Spring Training to work on his hitting. It’s early, but last night he was 2-4 with two walks and 4 RBI, as he hit a double and a triple. It’s way too early to say he is…
Still undefeated! The Dodgers’ goal is to go 162-0 and then sweep the playoffs. It has never been done… nor will it, but it’s nice to have goals. If you are new to this site, I do not do game summaries. You can find them in a thousand other places, but my favorite is “Gameday” on the Dodgers site. I have a few takeaways from the game: OKC Comets –…
Who will win the 2025 World Series… assuming there is one? There are 30 teams in MLB. There’s a million-dollar pot for the winner. Do you take the Dodgers or the field? Of course, I am rooting for the Dodgers to win, but if there’s a million dollars at stake, I have to take the field! No question! Now, if this was how baseball used to be constructed: The American…
Mookie Betts has been sick for nearly two weeks. He is still throwing up. Two weeks ago, he weighed 175 pounds. Now, he weighs 157 pounds. “My body’s just kind of eating itself,” he said. “It’s hard to not fuel it. And so every time — literally, every time — I fuel my body, I throw up. … I don’t know what to do.” This is serious… really serious, and…
