Ever since Andre Ethier and Matt Kemp showed up to be the Dodgers right fielders in 2007 the position has been in good hands, and most times in great hands. From Kemp to Andre to Puig from 2007 to 2015 the position was always one of strength. That was not the case in 2016. Puig …

Prospect of the day – Chase De Jong
Another day, another day of fine performances by the prospects, but ultimately Chase De Jong takes the daily title by virtue of his complete game victory.

Edwin Rios Prospect Player of the Week
Rancho Cucamonga 1st baseman Edwin Rios capped off a spectacular week with another home run on Sunday giving him five home runs for the week, ten RBI, ten hits, all in only twenty-five at-bats.
