Where The Dodger Dogs Are Always Grilled
A total of 20 Dodgers minor league games will be televised on SportsNet LA this season. That includes 12 games of the Triple-A Oklahoma City Comets and eight games of the Double-A Tulsa Drillers, with all of these games coinciding with either a Dodgers off day or a major league game exclusively on national television. […]

The Dodgers had pregame ceremonies before each of their first three games of the season, and even trailed 2-0 to the Arizona Diamondbacks in each game.

Coming off a strong first spring training with the Dodgers, Tibbs on Sunday hit a solo home run in the […]
Here’s a smorgasbord of leftover Dodgers stories from the weekend. The Dodgers’ hype video for the season last week embraced their status as the bad guys of MLB. Bill Plunkett at the Orange County Register talked to some players about that perception of the team. Alex Vesia talked in detail to Jack Harris of The […]
LOS ANGELES — Last season all the way through the World Series, the Dodgers got major contributions from rookies and young players, and that carried over into the opening series of 2026 at Dodger Stadium. Alex Freeland made his major league debut last season, and beat out Hyeseong Kim for a spot on the opening […]
In 2022, the “It’s Not My Moneyball” series was created in response to the lockout imposed by the owners that disrupted Spring Training and arguably cost Clayton Kershaw a perfect game in Minneapolis (I had fun). As the season starts, the World Baseball Classic concludes, we must revive this series as trouble looms in the […]
After scoring only once on opening day, the Triple-A Oklahoma City Comets scored in five different innings, including a crooked number in four of them in a 13-6 romp over the Albuquerque Isotopes (Rockies) on Saturday night at home.

Saturday was quite an unforgettable birthday for Will Smith.

LOS ANGELES — After catching the first two games of the opening series, Will Smith wasn’t even supposed to be in the lineup on Saturday, which was his 31st birthday and his bobblehead giveaway at Dodger Stadium. “I didn’t have him in there tonight. He really wanted to be in there on his bobblehead night, […]
It’s not about how you start it; it’s about how you finish it. Following in the script of Friday’s win, this time with even more drama, the Dodgers waited to take command of the game for the first time in the bottom of the eighth inning. Diamondbacks reliever Juan Morillo came in on the highest […]
Somewhere in the multiverse, maybe it would’ve been Eduardo Rodríguez and not Tyler Glasnow who would’ve joined the Dodgers via trade a few years ago, but alas, that’s not the case here. Glasnow and Rodríguez go toe-to-toe as the Dodgers and Diamondbacks square off in Los Angeles. FRIDAY GAME INFO
After the always-odd scheduled Sunday off day, the Dodgers are back at on the homestand by hosting the Cleveland Guardians on Monday night at Dodger Stadium. Roki Sasaki makes the start for the Dodgers after a terrible spring training in a still-unrealized search for command. The Dodgers have stood behind Sasaki during his struggles, and […]
Searching the whole of the National League, one will not find a team utilizing a starting pitcher at or near the caliber of Tyler Glasnow this Saturday. Scheduling and other outside factors led to some rotations—including the Dodgers—not necessarily starting the season in descending order of skill set, but the point is valid all the […]
LOS ANGELES — Edwin Díaz has been one of the best closers in baseball for several years, and he has perhaps the most distinctive entrance in the sport.

The Dodgers minor league season officially started on Friday night, with the Triple-A Oklahoma City Comets losing to the Albuquerque Isotopes 3-1 at Chickasaw Bricktown Ballpark in Oklahoma City.

LOS ANGELES — Clayton Kershaw is now retired after 18 seasons pitching for the Dodgers, but 2026 thus far has felt a little like the others.
