It’s Not My Moneyball 2026: The Vulture of Private Equity
In 2022, the “It’s Not My Moneyball” series was created in response to the owners’ lockout, which disrupted Spring Training and arguably cost Clayton Kershaw a perfect game in Minneapolis (I had fun). As the season starts, the World Baseball Classic concludes, we must revive this series as trouble looms in the distance, hanging in […]
Shohei Ohtani, intermittent ERA leader
Shohei Ohtani struck out seven in six scoreless innings on Wednesday night against the San Francisco Giants, continuing his strong pitching start to 2026. He’s gone exactly six innings in each of his four starts and has only allowed two runs, one of them earned. That gives Ohtani a minuscule 0.38 ERA so far this […]

It was an action-packed day in the Dodgers minor league system, with an extra game as the Tulsa Drillers played a doubleheader against Frisco.

Shohei Ohtani vies to maintain an edge over Rafael Devers

With Tulsa’s game getting postponed in Frisco, the Oklahoma City Comets were left to salvage the day across the Dodgers minor league system, even though certain individuals performed at a very high level elsewhere.

Shohei Ohtani ties Shawn Green with 53-game on-base streak

The highest-scoring team in the majors managed only three hits on Tuesday night at Oracle Park, and when the Giants scored three runs in the first inning that proved to be enough to beat the Dodgers 3-1 in the series opener in San Francisco.

Who closes games for the Dodgers now?
Edwin Díaz won’t be closing games for the Dodgers for the foreseeable future, as he’ll be sidelined until the second half of the season. The Dodgers don’t seem all that interested in anointing another pitcher into the capital-c Closer role in the interim, which is to be expected given how they generally operate. This is […]

Bottom of the order flourishes in blowout Dodgers win
A dozen runs was more than enough with the way Justin Wrobleski pitched, but the Dodgers decided to err on the side of caution with one of their most complete offensive efforts of the year, running away with a 12-3 win in Colorado.
