Dodgers fighting too many uphill battles
The Dodgers lost the first two games of this series against the Atlanta Braves in the home team’s last at-bat, which has been a trend of late, with five of their 12 losses in August including the winning run scored in the eighth inning or later. We’ve talked a lot about how the Dodgers went […]
Dodgers face tough luck Chris Sale in Atlanta
One is the number. What number, you may ask? One win that the Dodgers look for before leaving Atlanta? One-run losses as the theme of this series against the Braves? One unequivocally poor performance in a season’s worth of games for Chris Sale, who in all but one of his 23 starts this season has […]
Dodgers minors: Gavin freezing hitters into Stone
Shutout wins, high-scoring wins—the Dodgers’ minor-league affiliates had it all in an eventful Wednesday with five games since the Comets had a doubleheader on the schedule. Player of the day It didn’t lead to a victory, and just 58 pitches show he still has some ways to go early, but it’s difficult not to get […]
Mark Walter’s company TWG Global says Dodgers are not for sale
Two companies owned by Dodgers chairman and owner Mark Walter — TWG Global and Guggeinheim Partners — are part of multiple federal investigations regarding insurance investments.

Dodgers on Deck: Thursday, August 27 at Braves
The series finale between the Dodgers and Atlanta Braves features a wonderful pitching matchup, with Yoshinobu Yamamoto and Chris Sale on the mound on Thursday night at Truist Park.

Roki Sasaki looks to continue his second half success
The Dodgers look to even up the series in Atlanta against the Braves, a series that could be key to which team owns one of the top two spots in the NL, which would give them that ever-so-important bye in the first round. Currently, the Dodgers are one game behind the Milwaukee Brewers in wins, […]
Dodgers 40-man roster decisions are coming
Will Smith began his rehab assignment with a bang on Tuesday night, hitting a home run for Triple-A Oklahoma City while catching five innings.

Dodgers minors: Will Smith homers in first rehab game
A rare player who has been here for all three championships in this run of success, Will Smith got off on the right foot in his rehab assignment with the Comets—it was the highlight of a Tuesday of close games in the Dodgers’ minor league system.

Dodgers notes: Tyler Glasnow, Alek Thomas, Shohei Ohtani

Tyler Glasnow rejoins a Dodgers rotation nearly at full strength
December 2023 was a transformative month for the Dodgers, who signed Shohei Ohtani to the largest contract in baseball history and signed Yoshinobu Yamamoto to the largest pitching contract in history. But they also traded for and extended Tyler Glasnow in a move that proved Brad Paisley contributes more to the Dodgers than ensuring extra-inning […]

Dodgers rotation finally getting back to full strength (soon)
Even though the Los Angeles Dodgers have the second-best record in baseball, this summer has seemed like a slog to get through. It hasn’t quite felt like the big bully of a team other fans and talking heads like to complain about. At least from the rotation part, the band is (almost) finally getting back […]
Breaking down the 2027 Dodgers schedule for value
Once again, the All-Star Break came and went, and MLB schedules have been released with varying fanfare. The Dodgers used to at least try. Not anymore. Once again, in July, I broke down the entire 2027 schedule in real-time as it slowly populated on the Dodgers’ website. This year, there is a giant elephant in […]
Dodgers Week 22: A sweeping success
What a difference a week makes, 168 little hours. After a particularly deflating home series loss the Milwaukee Brewers, the Dodgers haven’t lost since. They took care of business by sweeping a pair of bad teams in the Colorado Rockies and Pittsburgh Pirates. The Dodgers are back to within a game of the Brewers for […]
