All the young dudes
The 2020 Zips projections are out and as suspected the Dodgers have a bevy of talent fighting for five rotation spots. With Ryu gone the rotation isn’t ideal but it is basically the same type of rotation that they have taken into every season since Friedman became President with the difference this year is that …
Just saying
The Dodgers brought up Caleb Ferguson on June 6th and he’s now made three starts for the Dodgers with each start getting better and better but doing little to prove that he should actually be in the major leagues right now. The Dodgers have won only one of those three starts and that was due …
Ex-Dodgers flourish for Tampa for one night
Three ex-Dodgers who now all pitch for Tampa and had seen nothing but tough times put all that behind them for one night as the three combined to pitch a one-hit shutout over the Oakland Athletics. First up was Nathan Eovaldi the fireballing right-hander who was traded by the Dodgers to the Marlins almost exactly …
Fontastic
Wilmer Font couldn’t keep the Dodgers from losing last night but he gave it his best effort. The 27-year-old is mostly looked upon by Dodger fans as simply keeping the spot warm until Kimi Garcia or Tom Koehler are ready and they may be right, but for one night the big hard-throwing righty showed why …
As losses go this one was fabulous
Much like game five of the World Series, the Dodgers blew two huge leads but this time the leads were only six runs combined instead of seven, and they didn’t have the best pitcher in baseball on the mound, only the best closer. The Dodgers staked Ryu to a three-run lead but even with the …
The GB&U Game Four
Dodgers win 9 – 0. Record now 2 – 2. The Dodger offense came alive on Sunday Night while the pitching continued to throw up zeroes. With two games in the book, the talk was all about the Dodgers inability to score any runs but two games later the story is all about the incredible …

Chargois, Josh Fields, Tony Cingrani, Scott Alexander, Kyle Farmer, Matt Kemp First time on an opening day roster – Wilmer Font, J.T.

Rotation update
The Dodger rotation is the strength of the team and unlike many years it comes into spring with everyone healthy. Not only are the top five rotation options healthy but everyone except Julio Urias is also healthy. Which is a good thing because the team doesn’t go as deep this year as they have in …
Bullpen Update
Tom Koehler the pitcher many hoped would replace the arm of Brandon Morrow had his season flushed when he hurt his right shoulder and will be out a minimum of two months. This will have a trickle down effect on the Dodger bullpen since Koehler was already penciled in as a lock. With Dave Roberts …
