Giants Win 5-3 and Take Opening Series in L.A.
Posted on 4 Apr 2013 by Daniel Trucios.
The San Francisco Giants lose the season opener but still take the series. The Giants take two out of three games in the opening series winning their second game last night over the Dodgers 5-3. San Francisco was down 1-0 when they had a 4-run third inning which included a 2-run home run by Pablo Sandoval, his first and the Giants first home run of the year. Giants' pitcher Tim Lincecum struggl...

Carlos Gonzalez: Five Tool Superstar
Posted on 5 Jun 2012 by Steve Folsom.
Carlos Gonzalez made history between Wednesday and Thursday last week when he hit a home run in four consecutive at bats. Several others have done this in Major League history, but never in Colorado Rockies history. His next official at bat, after an intentional walk, was only a double (if you have him in your fantasy leagues you might as well trade him because clearly he isn't hitting home r...

Baseball’s Midseason Awards
Posted on 27 Jun 2011 by Michael Waterloo.
It seems like just yesterday I was typing up my preseason predictions for the upcoming baseball season. It's hard to believe that we are already at the halfway point. Who says that the baseball season is too long? As per usual with baseball, this season is full of unpredictability and surprises. We've seen two no-hitters within one week to make this the year of the pitcher 2.0, a home ...

LAABTDATT. LAA Beating the Dodgers all the time.
Posted on 25 Jun 2011 by Bill Mahoney.
The Angels aren't that good of team. The Dodgers are down right bad. I never thought I would say that, but it is true. The Dodgers are making the Halos out to be the Yankees of yesteryear. Both teams are deficient in many areas, but the Angels have a much better nucleus than their boys up the freeway. Matt Kemp is the best player on either team, but he is only one guy. Andre Ethier isn't so bad...

External Options for Upgrading the A’s Offense
Posted on 29 May 2011 by Josh Muller.
Last week I discussed some in-house options for the A’s struggling offense and highlighted the prospects that I think would fulfill the biggest need for the big club. While graduating some minor leaguers might be the quickest and easiest solution to the A’s offensive woes, you can be sure Billy Beane and the A’s are exploring any and every avenue with which to improve the team. In fact I ...

Baseball’s Top 10 Records
Posted on 7 May 2011 by Michael Waterloo.
On Friday night, Andre Ethier of the Los Angeles Dodgers ran his hitting streak to 30 games, the highest total since Jimmy Rollins hit in 35 straight in 2005. While the attention on Ethier's hit streak has garnered a lot of attention – and rightfully so – he is still 26 games short of Joe DiMaggio's 56-game hitting streak in 1941. Will Ethier reach DiMaggio's record? More than...

Best of April
Posted on 1 May 2011 by Christopher Rowe.
One month of the baseball season is in the books and while 5+ months remain, we finally have our first glimpse into what 2011 will do to surprise us. Six weeks ago we published a season preview (http://prosportsblogging.com/mlb-baseball/mlb-predictions-standings-2011/) and now we can compare notes on the season’s first month relative to those expectations. Isn’t this just one part of why t...

Sleeping Giants Wake Up and Crush the Dodgers 10-0
Posted on 3 Apr 2011 by Cal Lee.
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. The free-agent signing of Ted Lilly didn't exactly resonate shockwaves through the baseball community as this was their “big splash” off-season acquisition. Many MLB analysts saw this as a “get – me- over” signi...

2011 MLB Preview: Looking at Clayton Kershaw and the Los Angeles Dodgers on Paper
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...

If you were like me, you spent Independence Day weekend getting away from the world, enjoying the sun and firing up the grill. However, while you and I were on vacation, Major League Baseball was not. Here are some things you may have missed in Dodger Land over the 4th of July weekend: * The Dodgers dispatched of the Arizona Diamondbacks, taking two of three and giving them five wins in their l...

Red Sox are Making Their Move
Posted on 20 Jun 2010 by "Baseball Brenda" Sepanek.
With the game tied 4-4 in the bottom of the ninth, Dustin Pedroia stepped to the plate with 2 outs and 2 on. Jonathan Braxton entered the game leading the Major League with the highest strikeout ratio per nine innings at 12.89. This was the first time Pedroia faced Broxton and it showed after quickly falling behind in the count 1-2. Broxton was throwing gas and Dustin was basically starting his...
