Reactions to the Milwaukee Brewers sweeping the Dodgers in the NLCS

Only two teams can make the dance. For the first time in three years, the Dodgers aren’t one of those two teams. The Milwaukee Brewers completed a four-game NLCS sweep over the Dodgers on Thursday, reaching the World Series for the first time in 44 years. This officially closes the book on the team’s gaudy […]

Miguel Rojas retires as a player after 13 seasons

LOS ANGELES — The Dodgers clubhouse after they lost Game 4 of the National League Championship Series was closed for quite some time before opening to media. Once the clubhouse opened, some players were getting dressed or already dressed, winding down after the end of their season. Infielder Miguel Rojas was still at his locker […]

Shohei Ohtani back at leadoff, Rojas and Kiké start in NLCS Game 4

The Dodgers are in an unfamiliar position entering Thursday, teetering on the brink of elimination after having dropped the first three games of the NLCS to the Milwaukee Brewers. The Dodgers managed to get some production with runners in scoring position in Game 3 to take a 2-1 lead, only to have it short-lived with […]

An ace in the hole in more ways than one

The Dodgers must win to stave off elimination for at least a day, but in order to do that, they must score, which hasn’t been an easy task in this series against the Brewers. So much is made of this team’s superior resources, and in a game such as this one—more than ever—the stage is […]

Dodgers face near impossibility trailing Brewers 3-0

LOS ANGELES — The Dodgers are the 43rd team in MLB postseason history to trail 3-0 in a best-of-7 series. Of the previous 42 such instances, 32 ended in a sweep. The Brewers can clinch a pennant as early as Thursday night in Game 4 of the National League Championship at Dodger Stadium. “We’ve just […]

Dodgers offense is grasping at straws

The Dodgers offense was always facing a difficult task in this NLCS, but their production, or lack thereof, goes beyond any praise the Brewers’ staff may deserve. The Game 3 loss and what the Brewers did offensively against Blake Snell represented an ideal example of what one might reasonably expect from this Dodgers attack: resilience […]

Because if not now, when?

Stop me if you’ve heard this one: A Dodger left-hander, who put video game-like numbers in the regular season, had a colossal dud in arguably the most important game of the year, in no small part by being left to hang out to dry in the seventh inning, before a back-breaking, likely season-breaking, home run. […]

Dodger notes – Dodgers have one shot to save season

The Los Angeles Dodgers find themselves on the brink of elimination and are watching their World Series hopes come to an end. As Bill Shakin of the L.A. Times details, pretty much all of the moves that manager Dave Roberts made in Game 3 came back to bite him in the patookus. From non-pitching changes […]

How to watch Dodgers vs. Brewers NLCS Game 4

The Dodgers are one loss away from getting swept in the postseason for the first time since the 2023 NLDS against the Diamondbacks. No matter how you want to slice it, they’ve looked inferior in every facet of the game in this series, from situational hitting to defense, bullpen work, and so on—now it’ll be […]

MLB playoffs schedule: ALCS shifts to Cleveland

Thursday brings us two games on the postseason schedule, both of which had their start times altered due to bad weather in Cleveland. Game 3 of the American League Championship Series between the Tampa Bay Rays and Cleveland Guardians was originally slated for a 6 p.m. local start at Progressive Field in Cleveland (3 p.m. […]

Dodgers latest loss to Brewers ‘really hard to put into words’

LOS ANGELES — The Dodgers are still woozy from the gut punch suffered in Game 3, but now face a sobering reality that their odds are long and the Milwaukee Brewers have several chances to deliver the knock out blow in the National League Championship Series. “This one’s up there. The only one I can […]

Charley Steiner comeback featured on Fox Sports broadcast

LOS ANGELES — Charley Steiner is calling Game 3 of the National League Championship Series, now that the series shifted to Dodger Stadium. Steiner is calling every home postseason Dodgers game for AM 570, making a comeback after missing nearly two full seasons while dealing with multiple myeloma and a broken back. Prior to the […]

Every Dodgers transaction throughout 2026 season

Here is every transaction for the Los Angeles Dodgers for the entire 2026 season, starting with the first day of spring training through the end of the team’s postseason run. We will keep track of every single transaction involving the 40-man roster here, including players getting called up or sent down to the minor leagues, […]

Dodgers vs. Brewers NLCS Game 3 chat

The Dodgers make a third attempt at their first victory of the National League Championship Series. Shohei Ohtani bats sixth for the first time since September 19, 2020 while with the Angels. Will Smith went from batting third in Game 1 of this series, down to fifth in Game 2 and now seventh in Game […]

Dodgers are back home in the NLCS, in search of offense

LOS ANGELES — The Dodgers were much better hitting in road games this regular season, but now have up to three games at home this week to try to keep their championship quest alive. They’ll need to find their offense to do so. At Dodger Stadium this season, the Dodgers hit .250/.329/.419 with a 107 […]

Dodgers-Brewers NLCS Game 4 moved up one hour, to 5:08 p.m. PT

LOS ANGELES — Expected weather in Cleveland has affected the start time of Thursday’s National League Championship Series Game 4 in Los Angeles. Dodgers vs. Brewers will now start one hour earlier, from 6:08 p.m. to 5:08 p.m. PT, as a result of the American League Championship Series Game 3 moving to earlier in the […]

Dodgers Andy Pages, Max Muncy top-3 finishers for NL Gold Glove Awards

LOS ANGELES — Two Dodgers received recognition for their defensive prowess on Wednesday, with Rawlings announcing the top three finishers at every position in each league for 2026 Gold Glove Awards. Andy Pages and Max Muncy will finish in the top three in center field and third base, respectively in the National League for the […]

The risk of a track meet at Dodger Stadium

On May 26, 2023, I had the unfortunate experience of sitting through a Noah Syndergaard start at Tropicana Field. Normally, Dodger baseball is fun, even in defeat, but this game was an exception. The Rays were getting on base and turning the game into a de facto track meet by bullying Syndergaard’s complete inability to […]

Dodgers & Brewers bullpen exposure through two NLCS games

LOS ANGELES — The Brewers bullpen might be the biggest separating factor through two games of the National League Championship Series, with Milwaukee relievers combining for 9 2/3 scoreless innings thus far in the series. Dodgers relievers were a strength of the team, and given the current health of the staff this might be the […]

Shohei Ohtani in top 3 for two MLB Players Choice Awards

LOS ANGELES — In the moment, the focus is on Dodgers superstar Shohei Ohtani is mired in one of the worst slumps of his career, he’s clearly been diminished by knee and biceps injuries, but insists he’s close to figuring things out mechanically, and will remain in the lineup for Game 3 of the National […]
