Latest blog entries from Los Angeles teams across every league
The Los Angeles Chargers have Omarion Hampton and Kimani Vidal at the running back position. That should be the two top rushers, but they could benefit from adding a third player to that position group. The Athletic insider Daniel Popper believes the Chargers could look towards signing Pittsburgh Steelers running back Kenneth Gainwell in free […]
Sports Illustrated’s Albert Breer said in his Monday morning column, “I’d lean toward a Maxx Crosby trade happening, and maybe this week.” As far as compensation, Breer said it’s unlikely the Las Vegas Raiders receive the haul they got for Khalil Mack eight years ago, what the Dallas Cowboys got for Micah Parsons last year, […]
The Dodgers Monday made their first roster cuts of spring training, sending 11 players to the minor league side of camp at Camelback Ranch in Arizona. The moves come two days after the Dodgers played their first of two split-squad days on the Cactus League schedule, during which they used 36 position players and 16 […]
Mookie Betts played in his first Cactus League game on Sunday, played four innings at shortstop, was 0-for-2 at the plate and scored a run against the Angels. Betts in the first two-ish weeks of spring training got his work in on the backfields and in the batting cages, one of a few Dodgers who […]
The Dodgers are going to win 130 games and blow away the NL West. Of course they’re not going to do that. Isn’t that what was said about the Dodgers last year? They won exactly one more game than the Cubs did. Obviously they’re the favorites to win their division again, as they have done […]
Good morning, Chargers fans! You know what to do! And now for today’s links. Chargers News: Vega Ioane and the OL finished up a strong week at the NFL Combine (Chargers.com) Chargers WRs coach Sanjay Lal was at the NFL Combine checking out more weapons for Justin Herbert (Charger Report) The Chargers remain undecided on […]
I could be way off, but I don’t think the Los Angeles Rams are trading for A.J. Brown, and I don’t think I am alone in feeling this way. Now, I cannot say this is fact because I am not Les Snead, so what do I know? But at this time, the Rams seem more […]
We know Freddie Freeman has a plan for things. He wants to play four more seasons (two beyond his current contract with the Dodgers) and get to 3,000 hits. He’d like to get 47 plate appearances this spring. But sometimes even Freeman gets caught off guard with thinking too far ahead. Bill Shaikin of the […]

Goodyear Ballpark will host the Dodgers two times in the next three days. Up first is Tuesday afternoon against the Cleveland Guardians. The Dodgers will be back on Thursday to face the Cincinnati Reds. On Tuesday, Roki Sasaki gets the ball for the second time this spring, after allowing three runs while recording four outs […]
It’s been a very long time since the Lakers had blowouts like this in consecutive games. You have to go back to mid-November to even find games with margins similar to this, but these Lakers did it in back-to-back days. You can easily discredit it by saying this is what they should be doing against […]
For the second time in as many nights, the Lakers blew out a Pacific Division foe. LA surged out to a big lead in the first quarter, withstood a small comeback attempt in the third and then cruised to a 128-104 win over the Kings. Much like Saturday’s win in Golden State, LA fell behind […]
The Dodgers didn’t tie their Cactus League game on Sunday, but settled for 4-3 win over the Angels at Camelback Ranch. Mookie Betts made his game debut on Sunday and played four innings at shortstop. He grounded out to shortstop in both of his plate appearances, but reach on the first of those thanks to […]
The final day of the NFL Combine is the best day of the event since it is the best athletes (offensive linemen) that get the chance to finish off the week. The Chargers may end up replacing two, maybe even three, interior offensive lineman from the 2025 starting unit. This was a big day f0r […]
While the All-Star break can serve as a chance to rest and recuperate before going on a run to close the season, it can disrupt teams’ rhythm and create another hurdle. For the Lakers, it’s definitely been the latter. After beating the Clippers in its first game out of the break, LA lost three straight […]
The Lakers entered their contest against the Warriors at a low point in the season. They had lost their last three games, doing so in a variety of blowout defeats and poor performances. And with stories around the team surrounding topics such as Deandre Ayton being unhappy about his role and LA’s offensive struggles, the […]
Mookie Betts is in the lineup for his first Cactus League game in 2026, one of a handful of Dodgers regulars being slow-played this spring. Freddie Freeman is also in the lineup, in his planned cleanup spot. Sunday game info
The Edmonton Oilers’ attempts to trade Andrew Mangiapane have failed, thus far, to find him a new home. And with the Oilers going 1-2 out of the Olympic break with disappointing losses to the Anaheim Ducks and San Jose Sharks, the team has taken the drastic measure of placing the disgruntled winger on waivers. Joining…
Fresh off a regulation win over the Edmonton Oilers , the San Jose Sharks are back on the ice and ready to welcome the Winnipeg Jets into town. The Jets are one of six teams that did not play yesterday and so the team is in town and well rested for today’s game. Winnipeg was in Anaheim on Friday and lost to the Ducks 5-4 in overtime. Connor Hellebuyck was in the net for the loss, his first game back since winning the gold medal for Team USA at the Olympics. While not mathematically elimin...
Most would say that they just don't have the horses up front, but the Los Angeles Kings have decided that head coach Jim Hiller isn't the man for the job any longer, relieving him of his duties. We have relieved Jim Hiller of his duties and named D.J. Smith interim head coach for the remainder of the season, Kings Vice President and General Manager Ken Holland announced. In addition, Kings player development coach Matt Greene will join Smith as an assistant coach.… pic.twitter.com/3MCzFf...
The Dodgers hit the road on Monday afternoon to face the Colorado Rockies at Salt River Fields in Scottsdale. This is the first of two meetings between these two National League West foes this spring and this week, with another battle coming Saturday at Camelback Ranch. On Monday, non-roster invitee Ryder Ryan is slated to […]
The Edmonton Oilers’ Jekyll-and-Hyde season continued on their past three-game road trip. They gave up yet another lead to lose to the Anaheim Ducks in the first game, looked like men among boys in a dominating 8-1 win over the Los Angeles Kings, and just when you thought they had turned the page, they came…

The big uglies, offensive linemen, storm the field on the fourth and final day of the 2026 NFL Combine. While the Los Angeles Rams return all five starters, a stellar quintet at that, there are question marks behind them. The backups are an interior heavy group and the tackles in reserve are iffy, at best. […]
