Los Angeles Dodgers

Voting for the 2012 MLB All-Star Game is underway.  There is nobody more deserving of making the trip to Kansas City for the midsummer classic than Los Angeles Dodgers outfielder Matt Kemp. 

Coming into the 2012 season, the Los Angeles Dodgers are looking to pitch their way back into relevance. Behind the dominance of Cy Young winner Clayton Kershaw, the consistency of Ted Lilly and the hopeful reemergence of Chad Billingsley, the Dodgers added two quality free agent starting pitchers this offseason.

Last year, among all the messes that the Dodgers organization was dealing with, one of them was their closer. 

The Dodgers opened the season with Broxton, who failed badly.  Then they tried several replacements like Kenley Jansen and others.  When Jansen hit the DL, they brought up Javy Guerra, and the rest is history. 

Is it possible for a player to be one of the consensus top five players in his league and still be underrated?

If that player is Matt Kemp, then the answer is an unequivocal Yes.

Matt Kemp of the Los Angeles Dodgers leads the way in our group of award winner from the first half of the 2011 Major League Baseball Season.

Baseball has suddenly become dominated by pitching as there are only seven players in the entire league with at least 20 home runs.  

Major League Baseball released its ballot for the 2011 All-Star game this past week. It may be a little early to label a player's 2011 season as All-Star caliber, but nevertheless votes casted today are worth just as much as those in late June. 

After an awful start offensively to begin the 2011 regular season, the Los Angeles Dodgers called up prospect Jerry Sands.

Sands had been promoted to Triple-A Albuquerque before the start of the season, but he was so impressive early on that he got the call up after just ten games. 

It's time to bring Showtime back to Los Angeles.

With everyone on the planet speculating about who could possibly step up and become the next owner of one of the most storied franchises in all of professional sports, the Los Angeles Dodgers, there is one name that is not only intriguing, but would ignite a passion not seen in Dodger Stadium since Kirk Gibson hit one of the most magical home runs in World Series history: Earvin Magic Johnson.

Following commissioner Bud Selig’s decision on Wednesday to take over the Los Angeles Dodgers from embattled owner Frank McCourt, the Associated Press is reporting that a baseball executive familiar with the situation says that McCourt plans to sue Major League Baseball in hopes of retaining control of the club.

In a move which took the baseball world by storm, Bud Selig announced Wednesday that Major League Baseball will assume control of both the financial and day-to-day operations of one of the league's most storied franchises—the Los Angeles Dodgers.
