Could Any Dodger Prospects Make an Impact in 2025?

December 22, 2024

Even though, he is not technically a prospect, James Outman, who spent most of 2024 at AAA has to be at the top of this list. In fact, I think this is a “make or break” year for James. There are a few other players who could make an impact for the Dodgers in 2025, but I think we should start with James because he has already played in the…

All About the Kids…

July 9, 2024

I would not expect Miguel Vargas to debut at 3B in Philly due to the hostile environment, but one never knows. I hear Miggy V is taking balls at 3B at a furious pace and that Dino Ebel and others are working with him. Of course, the Dodgers are not going to trade for a 3B at this time. Maybe it will change at the deadline, but Vargas could fill…

Cut the Crap, Friedman!

July 6, 2024

First of all, I want to welcome back James Outman who went 2-4 . He could have sulked when he got sent back to OKC after finishing #3 in the NL ROY balloting… but he did not. He went to OKC and went about his business and here he is back in the Show. I love James Outman and his story, his hustle, his grit, and it’s time for Dodger…

The Cavan Biggio Experiment is Over!

June 30, 2024

Note: I am not back, but I am not gone either. The morons have two strikes on them. Whether they stay or go is on them. I don’t know how much I will post, but the thread will be open daily. Have at it. Cavan Biggio was released by the Toronto Blue Jays after hitting .200 this season. The Dodgers have had some success in “fixing” certain players, so they…

Dear Mr. Friedman,

June 5, 2024

I realize that in your tenure as President of Dodger baseball, the LA Dodgers have the best winning percentage of any MLB team and that the organization is the envy of all other teams. In short, the Dodgers are the model organization. I understand that and am even amazed at the fact that even though the Dodgers draft near the bottom every year, the farm system is one of the…

What a Difference a Day Makes!

May 29, 2024

Maybe now Dodger fans can put their brains back into their heads and think logically… or is that too much to ask? Two wins in one day! Some good things happened during the games, including the Dodgers coming from behind to win Game 1 and Gavin Stone’s Gem in Game 2 where he became the 13th pitcher in MLB to go seven scoreless innings while striking out 7 and walking…

All Gave Some – Some Gave All

May 27, 2024

On Memorial Day, we all need to pause and be thankful for the United States Military Personnel who died while serving the United States. It’s also a time we can thank the living survivors of foreign wars. Freedom is not free, and we should never take it for granted. Thank You for your service! I don’t usually do this, but I am going to put in a plug for Tunnel…

It’s Time For a Change… or Two!

May 26, 2024

Yesterday was the first game of the year that I did not watch an inning, but I did go back and watch the condensed debacle. It was about as bad as the Pacers-Celtics game I went to last night. My son-in-law is a a Celtics fan, so it made things even worse. He is also a Red Sox fan and is envious of the fact that the Dodgers are good…

Some Days The Bear Gets You…

May 22, 2024

No, not that Bear… the proverbial bear! I guess you are going to lose one-third of the games. It’s baseball… and sometimes it is maddening. The bottom of the lineup continues to be a problem. Vargas got a nice hit but now has to demonstrate that he can keep it up. Lux was 2-4 and is now at .203, but Teoscar is in a slump, having hit .219 in his…

He has to Earn it!

May 21, 2024

Last year, the Dodgers anointed Miguel Vargas as the Dodgers’ second-baseman and gave him the job… no questions asked. It went horribly wrong! He ended up back at OKC in June. Two broken fingers, a damaged psyche, and a bruised spirit later, he is back, and this time, he is going to have to obtain a job with the big club the old-fashioned way. He has to earn it! This…
