Hansel Robles Signs Minors Deal With Dodgers
The Los Angeles Dodgers have signed right-handed reliever Hansel Robles to a minor league deal. The 31-year-old was released by the Red Sox about a week ago after struggling immensely in various late-inning roles with the team. Over 26 appearances, he had a 5.84 ERA and a 1.58 WHIP while blowing six of his eight […]

Justin Yurchak Enjoys Phenomenal Week At Double-A
Los Angeles Dodgers minor league first baseman Justin Yurchak had a strong second half in 2021 and looks solid in 2022. Although the 25-year-old isn't a power hitter, he makes up for it with his incredible discipline and presence at the plate. He posts a high walk rate and low strikeout rate, all while putting […]
Clayton Kershaw To Start In All-Star Game
Los Angeles Dodgers left-hander Clayton Kershaw will start for the National League in Tuesday's All-Star game in Los Angeles at Dodger Stadium. Kershaw may have made only 12 starts in the first half due to injury, but he's well-deserving of the nod to start the Midsummer Classic in the stadium that he's called his home […]

Clayton Kershaw The Favorite To Start In All-Star Game
Los Angeles Dodgers left-hander Clayton Kershaw looks to be the favorite to start for the National League in Tuesday's All-Star game at Dodger Stadium. On the flip side, Los Angeles Angels right-hander Shohei Ohtani could get the start again for the American League, if he's willing. If not, the Tampa Bay Rays' Shane McClanahan would […]
Freddie Freeman Added To NL All-Star Roster
Los Angeles Dodgers first baseman Freddie Freeman has been added to the 2022 National League All-Star roster as a replacement for New York Mets outfielder Starling Marte, who will be inactive for Tuesday's game in Los Angeles.

The Los Angeles Dodgers have looked at Kansas City Royals second baseman Whit Merrifield, whose 553 consecutive games-played streak came to an end due to a big-toe injury this week. He's considered day-to-day, but his vaccination status could lower is trade value within the American League. The rebuilding Royals won't trade right-hander Zack Greinke unless […]
