Posted on 7 May 2012 by Steven Keys.
It’s a bit early in the baseball campaign to be writing about MVPs, though, that didn’t stop some this spring from doing just that. Not too many endeavors as frivolous as pre-season prognostications on likely, after-season award winners. But it’s a free country, fast becoming jobless, but free. This piece isn’t about predictions nor intended to depreciate award winners of the past. Itâ€...

Blue Notes: Week Ending April 15th
Posted on 15 Apr 2011 by Cal Lee.
As the week comes to a close, the LA Dodgers has found themselves nestled in 3rd Place in their division with a rather uncomfortable 6-7 record which could easily be 8-5 or possibly 9-4. The Dods, lost 2 of 3 earlier this week to a streaking San Francisco Giants team who clearly are starting to show consistency in their bats and what better way to test that theory than by cascading hits...

Dodgers Trump Giants 7-5…Take 3 of 4 in the Series… First Place in the NL West
Posted on 6 Apr 2011 by Cal Lee.
Ask Don Mattingly what he had hoped to accomplish in the 4 game series against the World Champion San Francisco Giants, and Im sure on his laundry list items of “Things To Achieve”, none would say First Place in the Division.

Ted Lilly's pitching debut as a Dodger was rudely introduced by an unrelenting Giants offense crushing LA 10-0 this afternoon at Dodgers Stadium.

Posted on 1 Apr 2011 by Cal Lee.
Tonight's Opening Day match-up between the Giants and the Dodgers reminded me of a scene from the classic film ” Shawshank Redemption”, and a very memorable scene where Morgan Freeman is carving his name in an old sector of the halfway house and he says “Either Get Busy Livin, or Get Busy Dyin”. Clayton Kershaw's mastery against the World Champs line up today...

Posted on 29 Mar 2011 by Adrian Fedkiw.
Los Angeles was 14th in the National League in home runs last season. Grant it, Rod Barajas and Juan Uribe aren't sexy signings, but they add pop to the lineup. The organization got pitching depth to put behind Clayton Kershaw and Chad Billingsley with the re-signings of Ted Lilly and Hiroki Kuroda and the signing of Jon Garland. After a three year stint in Dodger Blue, Joe Torre decided to...

The question being asked now, with ...

Knocked Out The Brox
Posted on 15 Aug 2010 by Dave Leonardis.
In a continuous effort to throw mental darts at the board and hoping something sticks and saves what has been a disappointing season thus far, Dodgers manager Joe Torre pulled All-Star closer Jonathan Broxton from the 9th inning role on Friday. Torre says the move is only temporary until Broxton regains the confidence he has seemed to have lost since the All-Star break. After shutting the door ...
