Shohei Ohtani was thought to be back pulling double duty on Tuesday night against the Houston Astros, both starting on the mound at Daikin Park and serving as the designated hitter. He didn’t bat in two of his first five pitching starts, including last Tuesday, as the Dodgers try to find avenues of rest whenever […]
The history of the Chargers is filled with undrafted free agents who paved their way into the lore of the team by overcoming their lack of draft status to be an impact player. This year, there are several interesting players who I believe have more of an inside shot to make the team’s final roster […]
The Dodgers managed to avoid a sweep against the Cardinals with a win on Sunday, facing a familiar face in Dustin May, but overall, the offense won’t have fond memories of their time in St. Louis, averaging 2.33 runs a game. For the second week in a row, Yoshinobu Yamamoto will face a favorable matchup […]
The Chargers have their young tight end for the future in Oronde Gadsden II and recently signed former Ravens tight end Charlie Kolar who is expected to be heavily utilized as a run blocker. Still, the Chargers are continuing to look at filling out their tight end room as they’re hosting former Browns tight end […]
As normal, it’s been a while since we’ve had a mailbag. And I won’t make any promises of it returning with any regularity, particularly with the chaotic schedule coming up for the Lakers this series, but let’s have some fun and ask some questions! We’re going to have a quick turnaround on this one with […]
The injuries to Luka Dončić and Austin Reaves seemed like they’d end the Lakers’ season prematurely. Marcus Smart and Luke Kennard had other ideas. While LeBron James has temporarily returned as the head of the Lakers snake, he needed a few members of his supporting cast to step up in a big way. Smart and […]
The Dodgers’ last home run came on April 26 against the Chicago Cubs at Dodger Stadium, a seventh-inning blast by Shohei Ohtani that snapped his own string of 59 plate appearances without a long ball. The Dodgers have batted 232 times since then without another home run. Their last six full games with no home […]
The Los Angeles Chargers knew they needed to revamp their offensive line depth during the 2026 NFL Draft. The Chargers were able to do that by selecting Logan Taylor and Alex Harkey in the sixth round. Hoping that at least one of them will stick as one of the key members of the second unit […]
It was a strange feeling this past weekend, going around town at the beginning of May and not seeing people wearing their finest Edmonton Oilers threads, or a single Oilers car flag on passing cars, at least from what I saw. The Oilers were ousted by the Anaheim Ducks in the first round, their earliest…
If you’ve spent any time watching the NBA Playoffs, especially the very dramatic L.A. Lakers vs. Houston Rockets playoff series that sadly ended with a Lakers win in game six on Friday night, you may have seen some speculation going around about Texans star Will Anderson Jr. and his uncanny resemblance to current Lakers’ guard […]
Rams quarterback Ty Simpson was easier for an opposing team to prepare to go against than former Alabama quarterbacks Jalen Milroe and Bryce Young, according to an anonymous SEC defensive coordinator. In a report of other coaches in the conference who chose to be anonymous, Simpson’s selection at 13th overall was a “wow” moment, that […]
Dodgers two-way star Shohei Ohtani has six player of the month honors in his career, but on Monday he won his first career pitcher of the month award, taking home top National League honors for his excellent mound work in March and April. Ohtani allowed only four total runs, two of them earned in his […]
I may not be very good at it, but I love chess. Not to the level that I love basketball, the NBA, or the Lakers, but it’s not too far off! The strategy, the tactical decisions, the way every player seems to have their own style and approach that forces you to play them as […]
The Dodgers offense reached its nadir to date in 2026 last week, failing to hit a home run in any of their six games, losing four — two each to the Miami Marlins and St. Louis Cardinals. It’s the longest home run drought for Los Angeles in a dozen years. Batter of the week The […]
The shorthanded Los Angeles Lakers managed to advance to the second round of the NBA playoffs against the Oklahoma City Thunder but face an uphill battle.
The Los Angeles Rams’ three-year playoff streak has shown that the team, while getting closer every season, has struggled to break its ceiling. Are the Rams actually getting closer to a third Super Bowl title, or are they destined to stay stuck in one place as the Packers had towards the end of the Aaron […]

The Los Angeles Rams declined Emmanuel Forbes fifth year option going into the 2026 season, so unless L.A. and Forbes strike a new deal, he should be a free agent going into the 2027 season. If Forbes has a strong 2026, then he’ll go into free agency at the perfect time. For Forbes, this year […]
When Major League Baseball released the schedule on August 26th for this upcoming season, the “Dodgers at Daikin” became the most anticipated series for many Astros fans, myself included. The moment is finally here, and to lend the opposing perspective, we catch up with Los Angeles Dodgers Announcer Tim Neverett. Q: When you hit the […]
Relief pitcher Brusdar Graterol started a minor league rehab assignment with Triple-A Oklahoma City on Saturday night, and pitched a scoreless inning in his first game action in over 18 months. Graterol, who missed all of 2025 after right shoulder surgery and was slow-played this spring, will have a long rehab assignment before he joins […]
It was a bloodbath in the National League West last week, with all five teams in the division piling up defeats. The Dodgers, Padres, Giants, and Diamondbacks all had their longest losing streaks of the season last week, while the Rockies at four straight losses to end the week was two shy of their worst […]
While the Eastern Conference gave us three game sevens in round one, the West gave us no such drama. Oklahoma City and San Antonio moved on with ease, and Los Angeles and Minnesota won their game sixes by sizeable margins. Unfortunately for the viewer, the Lakers and Timberwolves are missing their best players as they […]
In the 1960’s, there were three great teams in the NBA: the Boston Celtics, the Los Angeles Lakers, and whoever Wilt Chamberlain was playing for at the time. The Celtics were built around Bill Russell, while the Lakers were crafted around Jerry West and Elgin Baylor. The Lakers never won a championship during Russell’s time […]
A week after sweeping the LA Kings, the Colorado Avalanche were back in action hosting the Minnesota Wild in a pivotal second round opening matchup. And how this game unfolded didn’t disappoint those high expectations with 14 different goal scorers including five defenseman to arrive at the 9-6 win for the Avalanche. The Game Minnesota […]
In the Thunder’s last series, Suns guard Devin Booker had a bit of a crash out while airing his grievances over officiating and, specifically, with James Williams, who Lakers fans will be familiar with. There shouldn’t be any similar remarks from the Lakers this round, though, because, according to Lakers head coach JJ Redick, the […]
