Caleb Ferguson ignites Dodger offense
Caleb Ferguson has now started two games and gotten a total of seventeen outs but the team has scored twenty-three runs in both of his starts. Can you imagine how many games Clayton Kershaw would have won in a month if the team had scored twenty-three runs in a month back when he was the …
We are all living in Muncy town
At least Matt Kemp has done this before. I’m wagering this is the greatest 150 plate appearance stretch of Max Muncy’s professional career and he decided to do it, at the highest level. Baseball is weird, but this, this is beyond that. Player OPS+ OPS PA Year Age Tm Max Muncy 175 1.011 152 2018 …
Finally, it appears to be Manny Bañuelos time
[Caleb Ferguson was recalled today so everything I wrote below is a moot point] It has almost been ten years since a Manny was rocking Dodger Stadium but as of right now it looks like the Dodgers will be dipping once again into the Oklahoma rotation and finally giving Manny Bañuelos his shot this coming …
Edwin Rios trying to make up for lost opportunity
By all rights, the call to Oklahoma for Max Muncy should have gone to Edwin Rios the 2016 Dodgers position prospect of the year. The problem for Rios was that he wasn’t at Oklahoma to accept the call, instead, he was rehabbing in Arizona. Rios could only think of what could have been as Max …
JUNE DINGERS
It isn’t your imagination if you think this version of the Los Angeles Dodgers loves the month of June. It was the same for this group in June of 2017 when they slugged fifty-three home runs. Of course, home runs aren’t the only offensive stat, and they actually had a better OPS in July while …
Grandal has passed Mike Scioscia on the LAD Catcher Home Run Leaderboard
Actually, Grandal passed Mike much earlier this year but his two home runs last night made me look up the LAD catcher home run leaderboard and I just now noticed that Grandal had passed Scioscia. Grandal came into the year with 65 Dodger home runs and has hit eleven this year to give him 76. Mike Scioscia …
The fab five (Joc,Matt,Puig, Max, Cody) have now hit 18 home runs in the month of June in only seven games. That is redonkulous
Name GS PA HR OPS ▼ Joc Pederson 5 21 6 1.81 Cody Bellinger 5 25 4 1.48 Matt Kemp 7 31 3 1.197 Max Muncy 6 28 3 1.179 Yasiel Puig 6 25 2 1.232
How do you play your five hottest hitters when you only have four positions for them?
The Dodgers have four positions for five very hot hitters. Matt Kemp has been here all along, Max Muncy announced himself in mid – April, Yasiel Puig joined the party in Mid May, Joc Pederson got the call last weekend, and Cody Bellinger showed up this week. The June numbers are ridiculous for these fab …
Dodgers start and end successful roadtrip with bullpen games
By any measure, the recent Dodger road trip through the Rocky Mountains and Pittsburgh was a resounding success but it wasn’t easy and Dennis Santana was as involved as anyone could be who only got fourteen outs in those six games. On the first game of the road trip, the Dodgers decided to use Dennis …
