LOS ANGELES -- Justin Turner’s one-game suspension was rescinded by MLB, but the third baseman was out of the Dodgers' lineup for Sunday's matchup against the Giants at Dodger Stadium nursing a sore ankle. Turner was given a one-game suspension and an undisclosed fine for bumping into home-plate umpire Rob

LOS ANGELES -- On the season, the Dodgers are a whopping 40 games over .500. But for the last three weeks, they’re a .500 team. So, when will they flip the switch? It wasn’t Saturday night, when they were shut out by the Giants, 1-0, to lose the weekend series.

LOS ANGELES -- Dodgers infielder Max Muncy could return from his broken right wrist by next Friday in New York, but outfielder Alex Verdugo’s rehab from lower back soreness has stalled, manager Dave Roberts said Saturday. “He’s still taking swings, but as far as the progression, we’re kind of stagnant

LOS ANGELES -- A.J. Pollock slugged three home runs on Friday night at Dodger Stadium, but a 5-4 loss to the Giants only underscored how the starting rotation is just as instrumental in the Dodgers’ success as all of those big flies. And that rotation is in a slump. Clayton

LOS ANGELES -- With passage into the postseason a formality, the Dodgers are juggling their uncertain starting rotation. For the current series against the Giants, Julio Urías will start on Sunday instead of Walker Buehler, who will be pushed back two days and start Tuesday in Baltimore. Hyun-Jin Ryu, whose

The season ends in less than a month, and there are still plenty of questions to be answered. What happens in the final weeks of September could impact your favorite team’s short- and long-term future. Want to know how? Here’s one looming question for each team in the NL West

LOS ANGELES -- The Dodgers have been on a home-run rampage since slugging eight on Opening Day, and it reached record-breaking proportions with another multi-homer game by Joc Pederson in Wednesday night’s 7-3 win over the Rockies at Dodger Stadium, which trimmed their magic number to clinch the division to

Making ongoing improvements is the primary objective in a player’s development, but it certainly doesn’t hurt for a prospect to put up big numbers along the way. Across all 30 organizations, scores of prospects had very successful 2019 campaigns. MLB Pipeline has already named its Hitter and Pitcher of the

Sixteen teams are still in contention with 24 days remaining in the regular season. Let’s pause for a moment to consider that number: 16 teams playing meaningful games in September. This is precisely what Major League Baseball hoped for when it added a second Wild Card team in each league

A Hall of Fame career is never about just one season. In fact, it takes 10 seasons for a player just to become eligible for election, and cases are built over time. A single season can hold great importance on the road to Cooperstown, however. Whether it’s a veteran cracking

LOS ANGELES -- Lingering back stiffness has forced the Dodgers to abort outfielder Alex Verdugo’s rehab assignment with Class A Ogden and send him back to their Camelback Ranch training complex in Arizona. Manager Dave Roberts said he’s confident Verdugo has time for a full recovery before the postseason, but

We're here to report on things we never saw coming. You know, like Nelson Cruz celebrating his 39th birthday with the best season of his career. And Cody Bellinger achieving superstar status at 24. And Jack Flaherty becoming arguably the National League's most dominant starting pitcher. They're why most players

LOS ANGELES -- One night after 21-year-old Gavin Lux debuted with the buzz of a rock star, veteran teammates turned the Dodgers’ 5-3 comeback win over the Rockies into Fossil Night. A three-run homer by 36-year-old Russell Martin turned the game around, followed back to back in the seventh inning

No two tools are as coveted in baseball as power and speed. Together, they have the potential to make a player an elite, MVP-caliber contributor in the Major Leagues. Such abilities are typically measured through a combination of home runs and stolen bases, with the 20-homer, 20-steal plateau serving as

LOS ANGELES -- Cody Bellinger reclaimed the MLB lead in home runs on Labor Day with his 44th, even if he only finished tied for third in home runs hit during the Dodgers’ 16-9 slugfest win over the Rockies at Dodger Stadium. Joc Pederson and Chris Taylor homered twice each,

LOS ANGELES -- Gavin Lux has spent this year seemingly ready for anything, including his Major League debut in Monday night's 16-9 win over the Rockies, during which he finally came across something he wasn’t at all ready for. The Dodgers' top prospect lined the first MLB pitch he saw

LOS ANGELES -- In five innings of a Labor Day marathon, Joc Pederson had the wind knocked out of him after he knocked the wind out of the sails of the Rockies in the Dodgers’ 16-9 win at Dodger Stadium. Pederson, who homered in the 11th inning to win Sunday’s

Trying to guess what the Dodgers’ front office is thinking is no easy assignment. But, that’s the assignment, so here goes. The first assumption is the easy part, that the Dodgers will make the postseason. The hard part is guessing what manager Dave Roberts' postseason roster will look like. Good

LOS ANGELES -- The Dodgers activated left-handed pitcher Julio Urías from suspension (for violating MLB’s domestic violence policy) on Monday, and he will start Tuesday night against the Rockies at Dodger Stadium. The 7:10 p.m. PT matchup will be available live on MLB.TV. Kenta Maeda was originally scheduled to start,

PHOENIX -- The Dodgers can orchestrate exciting wins on the road, too. Owner of 12 walk-off victories this season, Los Angeles brought its late-inning heroics to Chase Field on Sunday afternoon. After Cody Bellinger hit a game-tying home run in the ninth, Joc Pederson’s 454-foot, 11th-inning homer sent the Dodgers

It's one of the most glorious times of the year: September is here, the playoffs are looming, and three teams are battling for two spots in the American League Wild Card race, with only a couple of percentage points separating them in the standings. Isn't life grand? Sure, there are

PHOENIX -- A scary moment occurred during the fourth inning of the Dodgers' 4-3, 11-inning win over the D-backs on Sunday, when Los Angeles rookie right-hander Dustin May was hit in the head by a liner off the bat of Jake Lamb, which led to May's departure. With the bases
