Bullpen game marred by sloppy defense
The D-backs (47-47) pulled away late, securing a 9-3 victory over the Dodgers (61-34) Friday night at Dodger Stadium. After Arizona’s early advantage was erased by back-to-back home runs from Shohei Ohtani and Andy Pages in the first, Tim Tawa’s fourth-inning home run put the D-backs ahead for good. Sloppy play and three costly errors […]

Dodgers 2026 MLB Draft preview
The 2026 MLB Draft has a different feel to it for many reasons, including the Dodgers having their smallest bonus pool ever and the timing of the festivities themselves.

Dodgers minors: Emil Morales puts on a show in High-A
Thursday was a day of consistent performance, with each offense scoring at least six runs across the four highest levels of the Dodgers minor league system.

Dodgers notes: White House visit, Roki Sasaki, Edgardo Henriquez
There is a precedent among North American professional sports for the reigning champions to visit the White House. It is believed to have taken precedence when the Washington Senators visited President Calvin Coolidge in 1925, and it has become commonplace among the four major sports. The Dodgers are certainly no stranger to visiting the White […]
Things to overreact to after 94 games in the 2026 season
We have arrived at the final off day before the All-Star Break. Just in the past week, the Dodgers have completed a four-game set with the San Diego Padres, whose season looks as cooked as a well-done steak made for a timid geriatric, and a sloppy three-game set against the Colorado Rockies. It’s worth repeating […]
Dodgers minors: Home runs and Hope go together

Dodgers notes – Justin Wrobleski deserves an All-Star selection
On a team with, when healthy, an entire rotation of All-Star worthy pitchers, one name might not have come to mind at the beginning of the season – Justin Wrobleski.

Dodgers distancing themselves in the National League West

Sheldon Neuse has retired
