Ohtani strikes out 9, Moniak delivers big hit as Angels defeat Twins 4-2

Anytime that Shohei Ohtani is on the mound, the Los Angeles Angels are confident they can come out with a victory. Ohtani struck out nine in six innings and Mickey Moniak delivered his second big hit of the series with a two-run double in the seventh as the Angels defeated the Minnesota Twins 4-2 on Sunday. Alex Kirilloff homered and Carlos Correa had an RBI double for the Twins, who dropped four of six on their Southern California road trip. Ohtani did not get a decision despite allowing only one run and two hits. It was the fourth time in 10 starts this season the two-way superstar has had nine or […]

Martinez’s 3-run shot lifts Dodgers over Padres 4-2, win 4th in row

Just off the injured list, J.D. Martinez made his presence felt with a big blast. He hit a go-ahead three-run homer in the first inning, Julio Urías tossed seven strong innings and the Los Angeles Dodgers defeated the San Diego Padres 4-2 on Saturday for their fourth consecutive victory. The NL West leaders earned their fifth consecutive series win and have won 17 of their last 20 at Dodger Stadium. Their 14-6 home record is tops in the division. The Dodgers stretched their lead to six games over the third-place Padres. “We got a chance to go for the jugular tomorrow and that’s our intent,” Dodgers manager Dave […]

Max Muncy hits 2 HRs for 7 RBIs to power Dodgers past Giants

The way his season started in the batter’s box, Max Muncy realized he had to find a rhythm again. He had abandoned the step-back move with his left leg in a remake of his mechanics. But, suddenly, he was thinking too much, chasing pitches and struggling to correctly recognize what pitchers were throwing his way. Anxiety hit hard as the Los Angeles Dodgers slugger started 1-for-16, then 4-for-33 as he studied film and made tweaks — until everything finally felt right again Monday night. And the tried-and-true move with his left leg, he brought that back, too. Muncy hit a grand slam and a […]

Dodgers’ Freddie Freeman exits WBC game with tight hamstring

Los Angeles Dodgers first baseman Freddie Freeman suffered a minor hamstring injury Tuesday while playing for Canada in the World Baseball Classic. Freeman left the game versus Colombia in the fourth inning after feeling tightness in his hamstring during an at-bat in the previous inning. Canada manager Ernie Witt stated Freeman, who was not in the lineup Wednesday against Mexico, is out of the WBC “for now.” “He’s out of this tournament for now,” Witt told reporters, according to the Los Angeles Times. “The Dodgers decided that. He’s over in camp right now getting looked at by the doctors and training staff.” Looking […]

Dodgers’ Gavin Lux to miss 2023 season with torn right ACL

Los Angeles Dodgers infielder Gavin Lux will miss the 2023 season with a torn ACL in his right knee. Manager Dave Roberts stated Tuesday that Lux is “obviously crushed” and that the injury is “a huge blow” to the Dodgers, who were anticipating that the former top prospect would be their starting shortstop this season. Roberts told reporters that Lux also suffered damage to his LCL and will undergo surgery March 7. Veteran Miguel Rojas is expected to handle the bulk of the playing time at shortstop, according to Roberts, who also mentioned Chris Taylor as a potential candidate at the position. Rojas said earlier Tuesday that […]

Dodgers, vet OF David Peralta agree to 1-year deal

The Los Angeles Dodgers and veteran outfielder David Peralta have agreed to terms on a one-year, $6.5 million contract, sources told ESPN on Friday. The deal, which is pending the completion of a physical examination, brings incentives that could increase the value to as much as $8 million. Peralta, 35, gives the Dodgers an experienced left-handed hitter who can split time with the right-handed-hitting Chris Taylor and Trayce Thompson in left and center field. Peralta has some experience in center field but has spent the vast majority of his nine-year career in left. Looking for the best online betting site and Live betting? Visit Heritage Sports!

Trevor Bauer becomes free agent after clearing waivers

Trevor Bauer became a free agent Friday when he went unclaimed on waivers, leaving the Los Angeles Dodgers accountable for about $22.5 million owed to the former Cy Young Award winner whose unprecedented 324-game suspension over sexual misconduct allegations was reduced by an arbitrator. Los Angeles designated Bauer for assignment on Jan. 6, the last day to restore him to the roster, after arbitrator Martin Scheinman cut the suspension imposed by MLB commissioner Rob Manfred from 324 to 194 games. The Dodgers placed Bauer on waivers Thursday. Any team could sign the 2020 NL Cy Young Award winner for the major league minimum of $720,000. That would […]

Justin Turner agrees to 2-year deal with Red Sox

Third baseman Justin Turner and the Boston Red Sox are in agreement on a two-year contract worth just shy of $22 million that includes an opt-out after the first season, sources told ESPN on Sunday. Turner spent the past nine years with the Los Angeles Dodgers, where he blossomed into one of the National League’s most productive and consistent hitters. Now 38, he’ll head to Boston, which already has perennial MVP candidate Rafael Devers at third base, and likely settle into a first-base or designated hitter role, perhaps filling the slot of J.D. Martinez, who agreed to a deal Saturday with the Dodgers. While Turner’s power receded this […]

Dodgers sign OF Jason Heyward to a minor league contract

Jason Heyward, the former All-Star and five-time Gold Glove Award winner who has struggled offensively for most of the last six years, has signed a minor league contract with the Los Angeles Dodgers, the team revealed Thursday. The agreement includes an invitation to spring training. Heyward, still only 33, was a dynamic defender, a solid baserunner and a dangerous — albeit inconsistent — power hitter in his first six seasons, batting .268/.353/.431 with 276 extra-base hits with the Atlanta Braves and the St. Louis Cardinals.

Toronto Blue Jays hire Don Mattingly as bench coach

Don Mattingly was expecting to spend a summer at home with his family. A call from the Toronto Blue Jays convinced him to get back into baseball. Mattingly, who left his job as Miami Marlins manager at the end of last season, is joining Toronto’s staff as bench coach to manager John Schneider, the team revealed Wednesday. Mattingly stated he’d been contacted by multiple clubs with offers for 2023, but nothing interested him until Blue Jays general manager Ross Atkins called to chat. “Just the first conversation, it felt great, honestly,” Mattingly said on a video call Wednesday. “It piqued my interest right away.” […]
