Latest blog entries from Los Angeles teams across every league
As usual, the Los Angeles Rams draft picks are leaning towards the latter rounds with four of their seven picks, including one in Round 6 and three in Round 7. In L.A.’s case, late round picks are more than just a dart throw. Of the Rams 64 players currently under contract, 44 percent came from […]
Following a run to the NFC Championship, Los Angeles Rams coach Sean McVay has overtaken Andy Reid in the NFL head coach rankings. That’s according to NBC Sports’ Patrick Daugherty in his April 7 column, who added that McVay is “destined to be remembered as one of the sport’s timeless geniuses.” “The Sean McVay era in Los […]
With the Western Conference a tight-knit race yet again this season, this series will look at the standings and games to watch across the league as the Lakers look to secure home court and move up the standings. This is it, we have reached the last full week of regular-season basketball. The Nuggets have continued […]
Man, if the Dodgers offense had been this hot the last time they were in Toronto, the series would not have gone seven games. But then I suppose we would’ve been robbed of all that amazing drama. Coming into the middle game of the Blue Jays series, the Dodgers have scored eight or more runs […]
The Los Angeles Rams don’t just ask their wide receivers to block, but to block a lot. It’s part of their role. It makes me wonder if any rookies would rather not go to L.A. as they’d rather just focus on catching, and not so much blocking. Food for thought. The fact that the Rams […]
For much of the past decade, the Los Angeles Rams have had a near-toxic relationship when it comes to undersized wide receivers. From Tavon Austin to Tutu Atwell, the Rams simply haven’t been able to make the undersized, fast wide receiver work in the offense. With Atwell now out of the picture after leaving in […]
This past weekend, I was fortunate enough to be credentialed for the Nats series against the Dodgers. That gave me a level of access I have not had before. Being in the press box, down on the field for batting practice and in the locker room gives me a new perspective to share with Nats […]
Dodgers minor league outfielder James Tibbs III ran roughshod over the Pacific Coast League in his first nine games in Triple-A, and on Monday was named Pacific Coast League player of the week. In six games against Las Vegas, Tibbs had 10 hits in 25 at-bats with five home runs, a double, four walks, nine […]

Peter Schrager of ESPN sent his first mock of the draft season out into the world. He used context from his time at the NFL annual meetings to gather information from sources and inform his project first-round picks. Schrager is basing his selections off what he heard from teams and not necessarily personal evaluations or […]
Over the past few days, it certainly seems as if all the positive momentum that came from the Braves 17-run outburst last Friday has basically evaporated. The Braves have lost three straight, including last night’s 6-2 loss to the Angels. Chris Sale had one of the worst innings of his career and the Braves offense […]
Mookie Betts met with reporters on Monday afternoon in Toronto, two days after he suffered the injury while running the bases in Washington D.C., and one day after he was placed on the injured list. Betts referenced an oblique injury he had during his American League MVP season of 2018 with the Boston Red Sox, […]

In the top of the first inning, Drake Baldwin homered again to give the Braves an early 1-0 lead over the Angels. Baldwin’s incredible sophomore campaign has been something to behold. And that’s where the fun ended on Monday night. Jose Soriano absolutely cooked the Braves for eight innings, allowing just the one run on […]
Dodgers 14 at Blue Jays 2 The last two games I recapped were one run, extra inning losses. Tonight was…not that. The Dodgers picked up right where they left off last fall when they were last here clubbing long balls, and it’s generally not going to be a good night when the other team has […]
The opening salvo of the three-game rematch of last year’s World Series was a one-sided affair, in which the Dodgers drubbed the Toronto Blue Jays 14-2 on Monday night at Rogers Centre. After scoring only seven runs in three games in a languid series against the Cleveland Guardians at home, the Dodgers offense has come […]
The Lakers (50-28) are back home where they will play three of their last four games of the season, starting with a rematch against the Oklahoma City Thunder (62-16) on Tuesday. Realistically speaking, Los Angeles looks to make this one a, at the very least, respectable matchup against the best team in the league. Start […]
The Atlanta Braves face off against the Los Angeles Angels of Anaheim in what looks to be a pitchers duel between the two staff aces. Chris Sale has only given up one run in his two starts, and José Soriano has yet to surrender an earned run this season in twelve innings. The Braves’ offense […]
The Los Angeles Rams won’t sign Puka Nacua to an extension until they believe that the All-Pro receiver has matured enough to stop the off-field issues that have marred his character over the past year, according to a report by The Athletic. Which begs to ask the question of the Rams front office and coaching […]
Craig Button joined That's Hockey to discuss.

The Nats pitching staff got absolutely clobbered this weekend against the Dodgers. Once upon a time, the Nats had a 3-1 record, but now after losing five straight, they are 3-6. However, they are finally facing a team that is not expected to be super competitive this year. This matchup with the Cardinals will be […]
The Atlanta Braves had a roller coaster ride of offense in Arizona, scoring seventeen runs in one game, but in the other two it was basically what seemed to be just Drake Baldwin carrying them. The offense is going to try and kick it back into gear against the Angels in another late game but […]
The Dodgers and Toronto Blue Jays are back at it on Tuesday night for the middle game of their series at Rogers Centre. Yoshinobu Yamamoto starts on the mound on Tuesday, looking for his fourth win in as many career games in Toronto. The other three just happened to be in the 2025 World Series, […]
