Shohei Ohtani’s return against one of the NL’s top starters
Never has a four-game streak felt so flat as one with the heavy cloud of Shohei Ohtani’s absence looming over the Dodgers, but those scary days seem to be over, and not a moment too soon. According to Dave Roberts, his star player is ready to return tonight against the Reds as the Dodgers get […]
Dodgers Week 24: Comeback kings
September started out roughly with two losses in a row to the St. Louis Cardinals, one a blowout and another a blown lead. Things could have gone very badly in the first week of the month, but the Dodgers won their final four games of the week, including a sweep of the Washington Nationals for […]
Edwin Díaz starts rehab assignment, Zach Ehrhard leads Oklahoma City to sweep
Dodgers closer Edwin Díaz started a rehab assignment on Sunday with Oklahoma City, and pitched a scoreless inning, though it wasn’t clean. He walked a batter and threw only seven strikes among his 16 pitches, and did not induce a swinging strike, though did get a called strikeout. “I’m sure Edwin is going to want […]
Dodgers notes: Teoscar Hernández, Josue De Paula, Mark Walter
LOS ANGELES — The Dodgers didn’t call up an outfielder when active roster limits expanded on September 1, and in fact subtracted an outfielder with Alek Thomas sent back down to the minors. That meant no platooning of either struggling corner outfielder. “We didn’t bring up an outfielder. That’s part of the bet on Teo, […]
Dodgers storm their way back to sweep Nationals
On a stormy Sunday night in September, the Dodgers completed a three-game sweep of the Washington Nationals, winning the finale 7-5. Both Justin Wrobleski and Nationals southpaw Andrew Alvarez kept the ice frozen until the bottom of the third inning, as a Max Muncy double and Tommy Edman infield single allowed Mookie Betts to bring […]

Dodgers on Deck: Monday, September 7 vs. Reds
Get ready to see a lot of Cincinnati Reds baseball over the next week and a half. Through their first 143 games of the season, the Dodgers have not played the Reds, but will play their longtime National League rivals seven times in the next 11 days. Up first is three games at Dodger Stadium, […]
Shohei Ohtani might return to lineup Monday, but ‘unlikely’ to pitch again this season
LOS ANGELES — Shohei Ohtani is out of the Dodgers lineup on Sunday for a fourth straight day, but has progressed enough that he could start again at designated hitter as early as Monday night against the Cincinnati Reds. But it’s becoming increasingly likely that Ohtani does not pitch again this season. Ohtani has dealt […]
Dalton Rushing on injured list with elbow discomfort
LOS ANGELES — The Dodgers on Sunday placed catcher Dalton Rushing on the 10-day injured list with right elbow discomfort. The irony here is Rushing wasn’t expected to catch while active this month, but aggravated his partially torn UCL during pregame workouts on Saturday. “He’s not going to swing for a few days, and then […]
Fixed transmission?
If you have watched some uninspiring Dodgers baseball this summer, you have likely had a singular thought during the team’s recent .500 stretch, or thereabouts, as of September 5: Wait, the Dodgers spent how much for this offense to be this bad?!? Didn’t we just go through this lull last year? While one always has […]
Cam Leiter helps Great Lakes clinch playoff berth
The Great Lakes Loons are the third Dodgers affiliate to clinch a postseason spot in 2026, along with Double-A Tulsa and Class-A Ontario. Player of the day Three starts into his Midwest League experience, and Cam Leiter has yet to allow an earned run. The right-hander pitched five scoreless innings on Saturday night to help […]
Dodgers notes: Shohei Ohtani, Tommy Edman, pitching staff
Shohei Ohtani has been absent from the Dodgers lineup for three consecutive games. So far the team has had no problem picking up the pieces, as the team is currently on a three-game winning streak with a chance to sweep the Washington Nationals on Sunday. Ohtani hasn’t been his usual self over his last 12 […]
Tommy Edman does it all in Dodgers win over Nationals
LOS ANGELES — Tommy Edman made a fantastic defensive play to rob extra bases, then rounded said bases after a three-run home run that helped the Dodgers to a 6-5 win over the Washington Nationals on Saturday night at Dodger Stadium. Down two runs in the seventh inning, Alex Freeland walked with one out and […]
Dalton Rushing scratched with elbow soreness, Max Muncy sick
LOS ANGELES — The Dodgers originally planned to start Dalton Rushing at designated hitter and Max Muncy at third base on Saturday against the Washington Nationals, but both were scratched from the lineup. Rushing has elbow soreness and Muncy is sick, the team said. Rushing spent four weeks on the injured list after a partial […]
Dodgers on Deck: Sunday, September 6 vs. Nationals
The Dodgers finish things off with the Washington Nationals with a rare Sunday night start, a 7:10 p.m. first pitch on the night before Labor Day at Dodger Stadium. The Dodgers will use a variety of arms to fill innings on Sunday, including Justin Wrobleski and likely Bobby Miller for bulk outings, while left-hander Andrew […]
Dodgers vs. Nationals game chat
The Dodgers take on the Nationals with a slightly earlier start than last night. With right-hander Cade Cavalli on the mound for Washington, left-hander Dalton Rushing was set to get the start at designated hitter this time around, with Shohei Ohtani out a third straight game for the first time since joining the Dodgers. But […]
Dodgers activate Bobby Miller, option Kyle Hurt
LOS ANGELES — The Dodgers swapped relievers in the bullpen on Saturday, activating Bobby Miller from the 60-day injured list with Kyle Hurt getting optioned to Triple-A Oklahoma City. The timing of the move helps provide a lesson in timing and roster planning with just over three weeks remaining in the regular season. The immediate […]
Dodgers filling in at designated hitter
Shohei Ohtani is the biggest piece of the Dodgers puzzle, whether he pitches or not. He’s the team’s best hitter by a sizable distance, and getting him right for the postseason is of the utmost importance. So as he potentially sits for a third straight game for the first time since joining the Dodgers, let’s […]

Major League Baseball on Friday announced spring training schedules for 2027, which count as the most tentative things on the baseball calendar.

Strong performances by a pair of top-100 prospects in the Dodgers’ system highlighted Friday action in the minor leagues. Player of the day Eduardo Quintero reached base six times in a doubleheader for High-A Great Lakes, continuing his fantastic campaign. His grand slam in the first game was his first home run since August 9. […]
Dodgers notes: Shohei Ohtani, Kyle Tucker, Mark Walter
Shohei Ohtani has missed the last two games, just the second time he’s been out for multiple games with the Dodgers, along with a two-game stint on the paternity list in April 2025. But it looks like Ohtani will probably miss Saturday as well, which would mark his longest absence since coming to Los Angeles. […]
