Dodgers remove four more
Adam Liberatore, Jake Peter, Dylan Baker, and Donovan Solano were removed from major league camp last night. The only surprise here was Liberatore who I thought would be one of the final cuts. We never got to see much of Dylan Baker but he will head to AAA as rotation depth. He has to prove …
Is this the year of breaking bad for the Dodgers?
The Dodgers have won five straight division titles and the only thing probably keeping them from winning six in a row is going to be team health. That health was tested tonight when Justin Turner took a fastball off the wrist and suffered a non-displaced fracture. If you are wondering how long he is going to …
Miguel Rojas is not what I thought he was
Every week or so during the spring MLB.com updates their projected starting lineups for 2018. It is an interesting read and this nugget popped up on my radar. Old friend Miguel Rojas is slated to be the opening day starting shortstop for the Miami Marlins. Are you as shocked as I am about this news? Are …

The deregulation blues
Baseball has to take a back seat for a few posts. I get it. I really do. I hate regulation, maybe more than the next person because I hate being told what to do. The reality of our world is that humankind has a certain percentage of deplorables and if you don’t regulate them, their …
More minor league re-assignments
The Dodgers cleaned up their house again on Monday afternoon moving six more players to minor league camp and releasing one. They now have 38 in major league camp. Mark Lowe was given his release. Name Pos Status Notes Walker Buehler SP Prospect Will be back before you know it Edwardo Paredes SR Help Could …
Dodgers who are en fuego
First the hitters. Even though Keibert only has nine at-bats I wanted to include him because six for nine with only two strikeouts in his first taste of major league camp is outstanding. Estevez got no love from anybody when prospect lists were announced but he played a solid 2nd/SS and picked up four hits …
