Kenta Maeda has the best two game stretch in his three year career
Fresh off of his best game ever in the major leagues, Kenta followed it up with another gem giving him a two-game, game score total of 164, by far his best two games back to back. Kenta has had only five games out of sixty-six starts with a game score >= 75 and two of …

It had to be strange for so many writers who predicted that Matt Kemp would never don Dodger Blue after being acquired in the Charlie Culberson trade to be interviewing him on Feb 13th but there he was, still a Dodger as spring training officially opened in Glendale, Arizona. There is BSOYL and then there …

Dodgers pin hopes on Yu
