Dodgers 2027 spring training schedule
Major League Baseball on Friday announced spring training schedules for 2027, which count as the most tentative things on the baseball calendar. Amid an upcoming offseason of labor uncertainty, you can take to the bank that these spring schedules will be altered in some way as negotiations drag on. In the lockout during the 2021-22 […]
Eduardo Quintero grand slam gets Great Lakes closer to playoffs
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. […]
Snell shuts down Nats behind timely Dodger bats
The Dodgers (84-57) pulled off a 5-3 win over the Nationals (67-76) Friday at Dodger Stadium for their second victory in as many games. Snell kept the power-hitting Nationals off the board and navigated around two walks, utilizing his high fastball and curveball to rack up seven strikeouts over six innings pitched. The Dodgers’ bullpen […]

Alert Blake Snell against power-hitting Nats
The Dodgers were one inning away from a deflating sweep at the hands of the Cards, but ifs don’t come into play. And thanks to Teoscar Hernández, the Dodgers now host the Nats with a lighter, freer mood, even more so since the Brewers lost to the Cubs last night. Settling in nicely since getting […]
Ohtani’s time as Clark Kent
On September 1, it was announced that Stan Kroenke would buy the Anaheim Angels from Arte Moreno for more than $4 billion, eclipsing the highest sale price for an MLB team, set recently by the San Diego Padres. The Angels deal is noteworthy because the team’s lease on the city-owned land runs through 2032. While […]
Emmet Sheehan, Joendry Vargas win monthly awards for August
Emmet Sheehan’s first outing of September will be with the Dodgers this weekend against the Washington Nationals. But that comes after a stellar August in Triple-A, and for his efforts on Thursday was named Pacific Coast League pitcher of the month. Another Dodgers minor leaguer, Class-A Ontario infielder Joendry Vargas, was named California League player […]
Dodgers minors: Kole Myers and Jake Gelof combine for a four-homer night
A full slate of games wasn’t in the cards, with the weather not cooperating out in Eastlake, Ohio, but there is still plenty to go through across all Dodger minor league affiliates. Player of the Day Although Jake Gelof had more RBI, it’d be unfair to separate him from Kole Myers in an outstanding win […]
Shohei Ohtani “questionable” to return to lineup Friday vs. Nationals
For the first eight innings of Thursday’s contest against the St. Louis Cardinals, the absence of Shohei Ohtani in the starting lineup was emphatically felt. Ohtani had went 0-4 with four strikeouts during Wednesday’s 8-6 extra-inning loss to St. Louis, and the Dodgers decided to give him the night off. Although the offense floundered throughout […]
Teoscar Hernández’s walk-off double sends Cardinals flying away
The Dodgers stared in the eyes of a third straight defeat, but a walk-off double by Teoscar Hernández lifted the Dodgers to a 3-2 win over the St. Louis Cardinals on Thursday. The Cardinals were the first to strike against Tarik Skubal, as after St. Louis put the first two men on with a pair […]

Dodgers on Deck: Friday, September 4 vs. Nationals
The Dodgers’ nine-game homestand continues with the middle series of the residency, hosting the Washington Nationals beginning Friday night at Dodger Stadium. Blake Snell starts the opener on Friday, with fellow left-hander Jackson Kent on the mound for Washington. Snell is making his fifth start since returning from the injured list, while Kent is making […]
Dodgers playing against the Cards they were dealt
Taking into account what happened in the first two games of this series against the Cardinals, carrying a certain pessimism into the final game of this series would be reasonable. Depending on the outcome of this matchup, this could qualify as the most frustrating series of the year—once being blown out and a second time […]
Dodgers minors: Emil boosts Morales with a career-high five-hit game
At one point, leading by a dozen runs in what was a blowout win over the Captains, the Loons had a magnificent day at the plate, which naturally included our Player of the Day. Player of the Day Even in the middle of an outstanding campaign, Emil Morales had an individual performance that stood out, […]
Dodgers follow clunker with an extra-frustrating loss
The Dodgers scored three runs but couldn’t cash in more in the first inning, then failed to capitalize on several scoring chances. They blew a late lead after Yoshinobu Yamamoto flirted with a no-hitter in his first start of September for the second season in a row. That helped get the game to extras, and […]

Blake Treinen activated, Eric Lauer to injured list
LOS ANGELES — One day after allowing seven runs in three innings in his worst start with the Dodgers, Eric Lauer was placed on the 15-day injured list with left elbow inflammation. That opened an active roster spot for Blake Treinen to be activated from the 60-day injured list. Treinen pitched in seven games on […]
Dodgers on Deck: Thursday, September 3 vs. Cardinals
The Dodgers finish off their home series against the St. Louis Cardinals with Tarik Skubal on the mound on Thursday night at Dodger Stadium. Skubal in his first month with the Dodgers had a 3.00 ERA in five starts and 30 innings, with 37 strikeouts (a 30.6-percent strikeout rate) against only seven walks, and two […]
Yoshinobu Yamamoto hoping offense shows against Cardinals
The Dodgers offense showed up finally on Tuesday night, but eight runs were not enough to overcome the terrible pitching performances by Eric Lauer and those that followed him. If the Dodgers muster even half of that on Wednesday, they should be in pretty good position as Yoshinobu Yamamoto takes the mound. In his last […]
Emil Morales & recent history of Dodgers minor league 100-RBI seasons
This is the final week of the regular season for both Class-A and High-A, and both Great Lakes and Ontario have a pair of standout players in one specific area. Shortstop Emil Morales began the season in Ontario before getting promoted to Great Lakes in May, and he hasn’t stopped hitting. Morales has rocketed up […]
Dodgers’ John Shoemaker will manage in Arizona Fall League
LOS ANGELES — John Shoemaker is in his sixth straight year managing the Dodgers’ Class-A affiliate and his first year in Ontario after the previous five campaigns with Rancho Cucamonga. He’ll be at Dodger Stadium on Friday night as part of the annual celebration of longtime employees in the organization. This is Shoemaker’s 50th year […]
Dodgers minors: Adam Serwinowski delivers his longest outing as a pro
Tightly contested games across the board, including disappointing defensive efforts from both the Loons and Tower Buzzers, stood out on the first day of September. Player of the day It’s not every day you see a pitcher covering eight innings in the minor leagues; it’s not every day you see that anywhere, and Adam Serwinowski […]
Dodgers notes: Will Smith, Shohei Ohtani, Eric Lauer
For the first time in nearly three whole months, Will Smith was back in the starting lineup for the start of the Dodgers’ nine-game homestand on Tuesday. Smith finished the game going 1-5 with a double and two RBI on Tuesday against the St. Louis Cardinals, but his impact could only bring so much to […]
