Dialed in 4 – 3 – 2 Chris Taylor
The Dodger base was shocked last night that the Dodgers actually lost a game bringing to an end the eleven game winning streak. If they were going to lose a game this one made the most sense, flying in from Chicago, arriving at 03:30 AM the day of the game, having their least effective starting …
Corey Seager leads TB Leaderboard against Braves at DS
Corey Seager is already making his mark on the LAD record books. Earlier this week Corey hit his 45th home run, giving him the most home runs by a LAD shortstop. As the Dodgers prepare to play host to the Braves, Corey Seager is already on top of the total base leaderboard by a LAD …
What did Keibert Ruiz accomplish before turning 19 today?
Just about everything you could have asked for. At age 16 Ruiz played one year in the Dodger Dominican Summer League putting up an OPS of 726 At age 17 Ruiz was brought over to the states to play in the Arizona Summer League but lasted only eight games because he was clearly heads and …
Braves face Dodgers with old and new
The Braves have a strange little team. They are kind of in a rebuild but in an effort to bring fans to their new park they added a slew of veterans who might or might not be around by August 1st. Bartolo Colon is gone, and strange enough the Dodgers will face him Monday Night …
Kershaw and Wood have been unbeatable
Per the Dodger media notes, was the little tidbit that the Dodgers have won Clayton Kershaw’s last fourteen starts. They have also won the last eleven starts by Alex Wood. The Dodgers have not lost a game started by either Kershaw or Wood since May 1st. The Kershaw victory last night was his 141st which …
Scratch JD Martinez off the list
Evidently, the Dodgers didn’t want JD Martinez after all. The slugging outfielder was traded to NL West rival Arizona Diamondbacks, in what looks to be a very light package for one of the best hitting outfielders in baseball. The Dodgers could easily have surpassed the offer from the Diamondbacks, so we have to assume he …
Willie Calhoun makes MLB Pipeline Prospect Team of the Week
Dodger 2nd base prospect Willie Calhoun made the latest MLB Pipeline Prospect Team of the Week for the week ending July 16th. This is the fourth week in a row that at least one Dodger prospect has made the MLB Prospect Team of the Week. Prior winners had been Yusniel Diaz, Keibert Ruiz, and DJ …
National media taking notice of Dodgers
This morning the Washington Post posted an article about how the Los Angeles Dodgers are making a mockery of the National League. It was a well-written story with some key points. The nature of baseball prevents teams from winning nearly 80 percent of their games. But that’s what the Dodgers have done for nearly a …
Keibert and Santana show
In a game I should have gone to considering two of my favorite prospects were playing, Dennis Santana hurled another seven innings, while Keibert Ruiz blasted a three run walk off home run in front of the unimpressed Craig Minami. Dennis Santana pitched seven innings again, marking the fourth time Santana has gone at least …
Can the Dodgers win 110 games?
A few days ago I showed how weak the Dodger 2nd half schedule was and Dan Szymborski chimed in today also showing how weak the Dodger second half schedule is. According to Dan, the Dodger 2nd half opponents have just a .476 winning percentage based on their win/losses as he wrote the article. The Dodger record …
