The Shot Heard ‘Round the World
By Harvey Frommer Throughout the long history of baseball there have been poignant, exciting, dramatic moments. But very few can compare to what happened on October 3, 1951 at the old Coogan’s Bluff.” Others, especially in Brooklyn, call it “Dat Day.” But no matter what label is applied it was a time to remember. […]

LA Dodgers: Win or Bust

It is not a fair assessment to say the Los Angeles Dodgers have all the money in the world, just about a third of it. In all seriousness though, if recent baseball history is any indication, the Dodgers’ flush wallets alone may not be enough to buy a championship in the MLB, and that leaves […]
Dodgers and Mets have the excess to make a deal happen

I stay away from the so called “phantom trades” for the simple fact that baseball fans are very shortsighted. The thought behind a trade for most baseball fans is to see their team improved (on paper) at the expense of another team. If this just applied to the mongo fans, I would call it sheer […]
Moneyball extremes: Dodgers and Astros salaries
Baseball needs to figure out a way to split up the money they bring in from MLBAM and have each team spend a portion of that profit on player salaries. The words salary cap and baseball have been a striking issue in the past, but maybe those that control the game, that being the players and the […]

Dodgers Finally Turning Things Around?

The Bobby Abreu Affliction
I swear, everytime this guy shows up somewhere the team has NO chance to win. Now, I had some beef with him on the Phillies (he wanted Philly records instead of winning and he was afraid of the OF wall or diving), but his batting eye is impeccable and he was a great hitter and is still a […]
Book Review: High Fives, Pennant Drives, and Fernandomania
Recent history has not been kind to the Los Angeles Dodgers. However, in Paul Haddad’s new book, High Fives, Pennant Drives, and Fernandomania: A Fan’s History of the Los Angeles Dodgers’ Glory Years 1977-1981, the author gets the reader so immersed in what happened between these years, that it makes the reader remember what a […]
