The Los Angeles Dodgers’ bullpen is bad. I realize that Pedro Baez has been much better and that Kenley Jansen has seen a little resurgence, but they are just a flickering candle in an other wise dark room. Not too long ago, I wrote about how the Dodgers’ middle relievers were “unsung heroes”, well, the […] More
The Los Angeles Dodgers have placed left-handed reliever Scott Alexander on the 10-day injured list with left forearm inflammation. Left-hander Caleb Ferguson was recalled to take Alexander’s place on the active roster. Alexander’s trip to the injured list is retroactive to June 8 so he is eligible to be activated on Tuesday, June 18. It […] More
This is the fourth part of my look at possible trade targets. The focus is on teams that should be deadline sellers. My first three articles cover the American League East, Central and West. Nothing that I’ve seen since those last three articles has changed my mind; the bullpen needs real help.The left-handed side of the bullpen […] More
The Dodgers’ left-handed reliever Tony Cingrani suffered some more pain in his left shoulder and received an MRI yesterday. As of today, he is officially shut down from baseball activities LHP Tony Cingrani is stillin shutdown mode. No baseball activities for him. — Alanna Rizzo (@alannarizzo) May 30, 2019 Another Dodgers’ Bullpen Blow The Dodgers […] More
It was reported just two days ago that Tony Cingrani felt pain in his most recent outing. Today, he was seen in the Dodgers clubhouse. Turns out there’s a reason for that. Dave Roberts said reliever Tony Cingrani is having his shoulder re-evaluated. Cingrani is at Dodger Stadium today after his rehab assignment was cut […] More
As far as pitching performances go, it doesn’t get a whole lot better then what Kenta Maeda gave the Dodgers on Wednesday night at The Ravine. Moreover, Maeda struck out twelve Padres in the 2-0 victory. We will get to more on him in just a moment, because he did more than simply pitch. Los […] More
After struggling with his command during the awful loss to the Nationals that we never want to relive (relive it here!), Scott Alexander has found his name thrown around online. This is not the Scott Alexander I know. pic.twitter.com/bDIqGbdkkl — Mike Petriello (@mike_petriello) May 12, 2019 As noted almost immediately by the great Mike Petriello, […] More
With nearly a quarter of the regular season in the books, the Los Angeles Dodgers are sitting atop of the National League West. In fact, they lead all of Major League Baseball in the win column with 23. Despite those facts, many are quick to criticize a bullpen, that for the most part, has been […] More
As the season rolls into May the Dodgers bullpen is rounding into form. There are still some issues and room for improvement but the personnel are in place. Since Clayton Kershaw, Hyun-Jin Ryu and Rich Hill has returned to the rotation the bullpen has a look of completeness. Adding Julio Urías and Ross Stripling a […] More
The Dodgers are off to a good start but the bullpen has had too many issues already. Some members are getting flat-out lit up. There is also a balance of some starters that are either on pitch counts or aren’t ready for a full start yet. Early indictors that I have been watching for have […] More
To the dismay of some fans, Julio Urias’ role with the 2019 Dodgers has finally been defined. Urias will not be in the starting rotation, but he almost certainly will make the Opening Day roster. He will be coming out of the bullpen in relief this year. Roberts told me that in order for Urias […] More
It’s almost that time! We are a week away from Opening Day! Although Spring Training has yet to wrap up, it appears that the Opening Day roster is taking shape. After taking a deep look into some spring performances, injuries, and previous bodies of work, this is what it should look like come Opening Day: […] More
